No, I am not kidding, and I am getting this from very reliable source (a owner of one of sponsors here)
Yes. Currently AKG stopped making K701 now, only some stocks are left now in the world.
The next flagship of AKG, K702, will come out approx 2 months later. But, it is still unknown about any improvements in sound.
Plus : so they did not name it as K801... I think it is more like a mere year update version.... but we will see.

I think he will not like that if I mention who is.
Just to mention that I also got the information about incoming new JBL headphones, Denon headphones from him a long time ago, which all proved to be right.
I can send an e-mail to him to ask if it is ok to reveal. But I don't think that I would get 'yes' from that.

Yes. I expect a lot of K701 sales here if K702 is improvement over K701. But if there is real improvement, they would name it K801 IMO. But again, even the source has not gotten enough information about this new flagship. So expect any possibilities now.
Who knows if we are getting real successor of K1000?
