The K553 PRO's are closed-back, over-ear studio headphones for monitoring, mixing and mastering.
Their unique performance results from the perfect balance between the noise-isolating qualities of a closed-back headphones and
the spacious, dimensional sound of an open-back design. The 50mm drivers provide a strong, yet accurate and distinguished
bass response as needed for monitoring and mastering contemporary music. The extra large, soft ear pads ensure stress free
listening over hours and the 2D-axis mechanism enables full flat folding for easy storage or handling on the road. With its low
