General

An extremely solid pair of studio headphones, the KRK KNS-8402 offer a fantastically comfy fit thanks to premium leatherette ear cushions fitted with memory foam. The KNS-8402s sport an all-black design with rotatable ear cups, where the ear cushions, the headband padding and the audio cable are all replaceable so you can continue to mix, monitor and produce in fresh style and comfort for years to come. For extra convenience, an audio cable with an in-line volume control as well as ever-useful accessories such as a protective carry case and an antimicrobial cleaning cloth come included.

Headphones for Educated Ears

Since the design passively isolates up to 30dBa without any bleed during vocal recording sessions, this pair of KRK-made over-ear headphones is built for full focus-demanding studio jobs like monitoring. At the same time, the KRK KNS-8402 headphones are able to handle a maximum sound pressure level of 124dB - enough for practically any kind of pro-grade use - and deliver bright, distortion-free audio alongside highly accurate frequency response and flawless stereo imaging.
