Our recent trip to IFA 2024 saw a few big-name headphone brands going all-in on premium launches at the tech expo. AKG made a surprise return with the its AKG N5 Hybrid wireless earbuds and AKG N9 Hybrid wireless headphones – the latter of which we managed to get some precious hands-on testing time with.
Beyerdynamic mirrored AKG's approach and revealed its own pair of headphones, the Amiron 300 wireless earbuds and the Aventho 300 noise-cancelling over-ear headphones. The Aventho 300 over-ears see the German company attempting to crack a market that it hasn't found it easy to break into; while we have seen Beyerdynamic impress with its excellent run of studio, reference quality headphones, including the DT 700 Pro X and T1 Gen 3 wired cans, it has not always hit the mark in the wireless sector.
