I'm looking at getting one of the following, from Mad Lust Envy's reviews:    http://www.amazon.com/AKG-Pro-Audio-K712PRO-Headphones/dp/B00E4WXWBE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406732241&sr=8-1&keywords=akg+k712 AKG K712 Pro - 350 bucks  ...

I have recently noticed an issue with my AKG k712s in regards to rattling on the left driver while listening to low bass. So after inspecting the driver for loose hair (none found), I emailed AKG customer service and received a response from one of the reps. He stated he forwarded my email to...

I've been a happy owner of the Sennheiser Momentums (over-ear) for a while now. But I'd like something new. I mostly use them for Spotify and games, so I need something with accurate bass, nothing boomy but then again nothing cold. I've had the AKG K240, K271, K701, Audio-Technica ATH-M50 along...

I plan on getting a pair of these cans in the next couple of months. I know that they need an amp/DAC to perform well, and I just wanted to see my option. My first choice would be a Schiit Modi/Magni combo, but honestly that costs more than I would like. Would it even be worth it to just buy a...

Good morning Head-fiers,   Next month, I'm going to NY and I'll buy my first hi-fi cups, but I'm having trouble choosing the best pair for my taste.   One of the main reasons is that I don't have the headphones on hand to test, so I will have to base on some feedback from you head-fiers =P...

Hi everyone. New here, I am a music producer and dj and as such bought myself the audio 10 interface. This move was primarily for djing, however I have been using this sound card to produce with also. I have recently acquired some Akg K702s and was wondering what I should do. I have read...

Hi guys, I just had a quick question.  I am currently running the K702 off of the xonar dx, and was just wondering what the best options were for these headphones?   I am currently using:   Audio Chanel: 8 channels Sample Rate: PCM 192 KHz Analog Out: Headphone SPDIF Out: PCM (checked)...

Hi everyone!  I'm one of those people who thought the Sennheiser HD280 was the pinnacle of headphone sound quality before reading the stuff on this site so bear with me if I say anything asinine.   The setup I'm looking to purchase is a Xonar Essence STX soundcard, the AKG K702 65th Annie, and...

I've read as much as I can regarding these cans and amps, but I still can't narrow it down. I just bought the Annies from a local store. They didn't have any in stock so they were ordered in and will be delivered to my door.   I would like to purchase an amp. My budget is $300. I just am not...

A quite basic question, but I am unaware of the advantages or disadvantages of each. I began my "audiophile" journey with the Dt880 premium 250 ohm, but decided to return those after I found them too laid back and boring for me. I'm now looking into buying either of the two above. My cousin...

Hey I was wondering if someone could tell me if the AKG K712 is a recoloured version of the AKG K702 Annie? I was really interested in the Annie because of Mad Lust Envy's Headphone guide, but the Annie is extremely expensive in germany (569,00 € on amazon o.O). I will be mostly useing it for...

Hey everyone,   New to the forums and just had a quick question. Sorry if this has been asked before...I couldn't find anything related.     I am new to the world of headphone amps. I currently have the  ATH-M50s and looking to get the AKG K702s. What mobile amp (listening to music on...

Hey,   I'm currently the owner of a pair of AKG K702s but am really considering making the switch to HD600s. Should I? Why or why not? Also, what should I expect (similarities and differences) if I do make the switch? Thanks for any help with this dilemma.  

Hi everyone i have my Beyerdynamic DT 880 250 ohm versin at home for some time, and i have said to myself that i want to try the best option for the money and borrowed Sennheiser HD 600 and AKG K 702. (SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH).   I am only beginning with listening to higher grade headphones so if...

Hi Guys,   As a Hardcore Gamer , I am Involved in sound systems just for few days and according to Mad Lust Envy's Gaming Headset Review and My Budget I got my brand new AKG K702's. And while continueing my research to get the best "mostly competitive" sound quality from my headphones , I...

The title asks the question really! Just received my 702's and love them. I was wondering if i used the duet as my dac and the a800 to power, would the be a improvement in bass?

Hi All,   I'm new here, looking to buy a pair of good headphones, considering primarily the ones listed above. There's lots of discussion out there comparing these and discussing which ones need a headphone amp more than others and how they compare with or without amping. I'm planning on...

So I'm pretty much set on keeping these two headphones as my mains, but I want one nice cable for both. I'm not a believer of cable-fi per se. I do know cables do make a minute difference, but not one I personally gain from. I mainly just one a nice cable for both that I can switch to and fro...

Alright, I need some help.   I have a Titanium HD and I recently purchased the AKG K702. I am trying to run the following setup: Titanium HD > RCA Line Out > FiiO E09K RCA (Aux) Line In > K702. The Titanium HD sits above my video cards and i have no other free slots to plug it into without...

so i love these headphones, but not portable at all, and i cant use any of the crappy ear buds i have.  i would love a pair of sennheiser momentum, or Mr. Speakers's mad dogs.  i would prefer with alpha pads if possible.  if you want to trade, pm.  headphones are slightly damaged,  little...

Hey, [sorry about my clumsy english]: I have the AKG K702 at the moment and I realy like their sond signature. but not as I thought portability does have great place in my consideration of having new 'phones. Which 'phones do you think wins in terms of [from the most important to the...

I just received my AKG K702, imported from US to Australia for AU$298 including shipping from eBay... what a steal! Wow! I was not expecting these to be this good after all the "plasticy" comments and unappreciation threads. Sorry, these are almost perfect and sound more fun to me than the Denon...

Hi I am thinking of getting a good amplifier for my k702's, my PA2v2 makes a small difference, so I wonder what a step up will do? I need a good amp! It can be any form factor, I don't care, as long as it make the k702's sound better!   Thanks a lot,   MacKat     P.S. I already...

I think it was a wise decision. As far as sound signatures go, I think the HD650's suits me better. The AKGs were just too frail and thin. They did shine at times with certain genres and songs, but more often than not, I was left fatigued and wondering why they sounded lousy. I tried EQing them...

Hi Im just wondering whats the benefits or even if there is any benefit from taking out the foam from the AD700, just behind where the grills are.    And i would also like to know if the AKG K702 is really that much better than the AD700's (wider soundstage, bass etc?) Which would be...
