Manuals of product KNS 8400
Editorial note
The KRK KNS 8400 is a quality headphone that stands out for its excellent audio performance. With a sensitivity of 97 dB and a total harmonic distortion of only 0.1%, it offers an immersive and faithful listening experience. Its in-ear design and closed acoustic system ensure optimal sound isolation, allowing users to fully immerse themselves in their music. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The weight of 232 g, while reasonable, can become uncomfortable during prolonged use, especially for those who wear headphones for long hours. Additionally, the wired connection may limit freedom of movement compared to wireless models, which could be a disadvantage for active users. The in-ear design, while effective for sound isolation, may not necessarily suit everyone, with some preferring a supra-aural design for increased comfort. In terms of value for money, durable materials like faux leather ensure good longevity, but their breathability may pose issues during long listening sessions. The extensive compatibility thanks to a 3.5 mm connector and included audio adapters is a plus, although the sensitivity of 97 dB may not satisfy audiophiles seeking higher volume levels. Overall, the KRK KNS 8400 is a solid choice for those looking for exceptional sound quality and total immersion, while keeping in mind considerations of comfort and usability flexibility.Score details
