K-702 : excellent

9 years ago

ex top-de-gamme for akg. (remember to do a proper 150hrs burn-in time)

coming from k-240 models it was a real pleasure to see that it maintains the original sound signature, revealing more brandwidth (notably on bass part) without exaggerating anything. no fatigue, not heavy on head.

impedance is too high for good listening volumes with portable devices, but when properly driven, it's just revealing.

it feels really natural and translates incredibly well. now that the price dropped by 100 it's a must buy for every producer/s-engineer/designer

(it's open design, so nothing for tracking or monitoring here)
