I agree. The AKG is around 30 years old and perhaps 10 years later there was a step forward and there might be no big differences until today. To enjoy music I always preferred Bayer, but the AKG IMO is better to produce music. I can't pay for more than one headphone, so I bought the AKG instead of a Bayer.
