AKG 450 OR 451
Which one is the best sounding.Thanks
Thanks for that.I have got some 450`s and they are not bad at all.I am just curious.You can never have enough headphones ask me oops I mean my wife 
Sell your K450s and go for it! Or keep both.....
Just dont bother, both are the most uncomfortable headphones I have ever worn, they make your ears hurt and to be honest I simply cant bear to wear them for more than an hour.
Actively looking for another pair, even if you audition, you are never going to try them on that long, so bit of luck involved I guess
I had K450s and thought they were fine!
Just oredered some K451s..... Oh, just how many systems do you need Woodster? 
To answer my own question.The 451`s got some this morning and they are a lot better sounding than the 450`s.
Great - a result. Hope you enjoy them. Mine should be here soon. 
Thanks Woodster I have got wooden ears anyway 
To answer my own question.The 451`s got some this morning and they are a lot better sounding than the 450`s.
I ordered mine there (451's) from Superfi for £52.79 :) 
My set arrived. Once I flexed the metal band and ran them in a bit, made them comfortable and burned them in they're fantastic! Really nice sound for me. 
I own k450 , I've used them maybe 10 times (after 15 hours of running in) and hate them sound is too warm lack of detail , just muddy , I got them from Superfi so I thing they are original , I prefer my Koss port a pro , Shenns hd25
Hi.I have both and the 451`s do sound better
Loving these K451s. Great set for £50.

From all the reading I've done in forums, reviews etc. the K451 is definitely the one to go for. Given that the K450 is around £40, and the K451 is £53, it looks like a no brainer. Hope this helps.
