Default Review of K701 stolen and adapted

So I'm suring head-fi, I read Asr's review of the K701s. Bored as I was, I looked up the K701s on google and found the last page (least relevant?). Anyways, here's that page.

http://www.preciomania.com/rating_ge...414/id_type=M/

Compared with Asr's review, you're bound to find some common denominators. For instance, the 62 ohm but more like 250 ohm comment bears some resemblance.

Smart, instead of reviewing it themselves, they got an experienced head-fier to do it. Bums.

Rants:
- All Apple diyMods can have both the headphone and dock signals enabled. Only the iMod 4G moves the line out signal to the headphone jack.
- Contrary to what it says on aaronylee's website (http://ayl.nuwen.net/index.php/proje...ipod/page-one/), this mod will allow you to use your headphones through the headphone jack.

Yup that one is also mine, I am the bat that flaps in the night masquerading on other Web sites! Witness the multiple pseudonyms!

They had like a 450-word limit so I had to shorten it.

Not sure of the legality (if any) in posting a similar review on two sites, if anyone has any info on that I'd like to know! The PriceGrabber one was posted later of course.

Oops.

Heh, apparently user reviews posted on PriceGrabber get around.
