The AKG N5005 are immensely bold earphones. They cost around 1,000$, when until recently the majority of the most expensive sets topped out at around 300$. Earphones this expensive do exist, but they’re custom moulded sets designed for professional musicians, and very, very rich people. Can the AKG N5005 possibly compete with this crowd?

It’s not something that photos can relay well, but the AKG N5005 are the most solidly-constructed earphones I've ever tested. Metal-bodied earphones are common. Heck, even 30$ metal earphones aren’t rare. However, the N5005 bodies are made of a single piece of stainless steel.
