VIENNA, Austria – Playing to millions of fans every year, with close to
13 million fans on Facebook, more than 350 million views on YouTube and 1.35
million followers on Twitter, the global force recognized as the ‘Greatest DJ
in the World,’ TIËSTO,
is now launching his very own headphone range.
“I’ve been really closely involved with every element of the headphones,
from the sound quality to the look and feel,” stated the legendary producer, DJ, and performer. “I’ve been using
the headphones when playing around the world over the last 6 months. During
that time I’ve worked closely with the AKG technical team to make sure they
deliver the perfect sound. The AKG-by-TIËSTO range provides the quality I can
really rely on, whether in a club or a stadium, or in the studio. I am proud to
work alongside AKG to set a new standard for professional headphones.”
The line of three headphones, K67 (High-Performance), K167
(Professional) and K267
(Reference) all provide users
with a sound fitting for the global phenomenon.
K267 TIËSTO offers an over-ear,
closed-back design, with an oversized low resonance driver, providing a higher
SPL, while still maintaining a matched low frequency bass response. Its user-adjustable bass boost keeps sound
neutral or maximizes deeper sub-bass frequencies when prompted. With
high-quality materials and superior workmanship, K267’s sound quality raises the
bar for the professional DJ with the best performance without compromise. K267’s Dual Plug-In feature allows the user
to attach the cable to either side for maximum comfort. In addition, each set boasts 3D-Axis folding
mechanisms for optimum fitting and flat storage.
K167 TIËSTO is an over-ear,
closed-back design for high comfort and maximum noise rejection. Suitable for multiple applications, from the
stage to the studio, DJs and music enthusiasts will enjoy the stunning design
and impressive sound quality, even in loud environments. Its 40mm driver allows
for higher sound pressure levels, while its roadworthy design provides maximum
reliability.
K67 TIËSTO’s on-ear design is
ideal for the
perfect sound on the go. They are designed for a wide range of applications
from live
sound to studio
work. The
compact design delivers convincing and powerful sound wherever necessary, even outdoors.
“AKG is synonymous with premium sound
quality for musicians, sound engineers and music aficionados all around the
globe,” stated Thomas Stubics, Product Marketing Manager, AKG. “Thanks to TIËSTO himself and his inspiring
team, the new AKG-by-TIËSTO Series combines AKG’s heritage with slick design,
modern sound tuning, new features and impressive durability, better than ever
before.”
AKG happily announces the K67 TIËSTO and K167 TIËSTO
models are currently available in stores around the globe. The top of the line K267 TIËSTO headphones
will be available in late October 2012.
