AKG K371-BT Bluetooth Studio Headphones

AKG K371-BT Bluetooth Over-Ear Headphones

The AKG K371-BT takes AKG’s studio-tuned K371 — a closed-back headphone voiced to the Harman curve that engineers rated so highly — and adds Bluetooth 5.0 wireless with high-resolution codecs. The result is a headphone that works as a reference for mixing and editing at the desk, then unplugs for the commute without changing its sound signature or giving up long-session comfort.

Key features

• 40mm drivers tuned to the AKG/Harman reference response
• Bluetooth 5.0 with LDAC, aptX HD, aptX, AAC and SBC codec support
• Active noise cancellation for travel and open offices
• Up to 60 hours of battery life wireless, 50 hours with ANC on
• Multipoint connection — stay paired to a laptop and phone together
• Folding design with plush earcups for long sessions

Studio sound, wireless freedom

Most Bluetooth headphones are tuned for excitement; the K371-BT is tuned for accuracy. Its response follows the curve AKG developed from years of listener research, so bass is controlled, mids are honest and treble is detailed without glare. With LDAC or aptX HD from a compatible source, wireless playback carries near-wired resolution, and plugging the cable in restores full wired operation the moment the battery runs down.

Battery, ANC and calls

The rated battery life — up to 60 hours of Bluetooth playback, around 50 with noise cancellation running — means weekly rather than daily charging. ANC takes the edge off train and cabin noise, the built-in microphone handles calls, and touch controls plus the AKG Headphone app let you adjust EQ and settings from the phone.

Built for daily work

The earcups fold for transport, the oval cushions seal well without excessive clamp, and at roughly 265g the headphone stays comfortable across a working day. For creators who want one headphone that is honest enough to mix on and flexible enough to travel with, the K371-BT covers both jobs.

Everyday carry, reference sound

The K371-BT earns its place by removing the usual excuse for owning two headphones. In the studio it behaves like the wired K371 engineers already trust; outside, the same accuracy makes long listening sessions less fatiguing than consumer tunings that push bass and treble. Gesture controls on the earcup handle volume and playback without reaching for the phone, and the folding frame with its carry pouch survives a daily commute. For students, editors and remote workers who move between a desk and the road, it is one purchase that covers both environments without compromise on either side.

For buyers comparing it with the wired K371, the choice is simple: identical tuning philosophy and fit, with the BT model adding wireless codecs, cancellation and calls. Nothing about the studio character is diluted — the Bluetooth layer is an addition to the reference headphone, not a replacement for it.
