Q701 impressions thread
If anyone want an inexpensive, high quality silver-copper cable: http://www.ebay.com/itm/221229941471?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 Just got mine and they are fantastic.

Q701 impressions thread
When I turn my head from one side to another, I get loss of audio in one ear or the other or static. Anyone experience this before or have a solution. I tried the two cables included with the set and they both have this issue.- HyperionXL

The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
Quote: Take my money, sir! You just sold me on these amps. Never messed around with my soundcard before, or amps for that matter, so we'll see how bad I fumble it up when I get my AD797BRs in a week or so. Looking forward to hearing how my Qs like them.- HyperionXL

Okay. FINALLY Got my AKG Q701s after much discourse and lost mail stubs and a bunch of crap. Took 3 weeks, but finally got them, plugged them into my Xonar STX and turned on some music and it sounds absolutely fantastic (although very quiet and hard to drive - forgot I had my previous volume on...- HyperionXL

Pictures of where your from ( no personally house pictures) like city/town pictures, or local environment.
Not where I'm from, but where I currently live: Love how the old canals mix with the newer skyline. Makes for a jungle sort of feel in a city that's growing rapidly.- HyperionXL

Aren't the mmx300s just dt770s and pc360s just the hd598? Haven't listened to the dt770s yet, but had a listen to the hd598s yesterday and if they are anything like the pc360s, I think you'd be making a good choice with them. Heard great reviews on the mmx300s too, though.- HyperionXL

Found an open box q701 for about $360 (thanks Thai luxury taxes) on a Thai tech forum so I'll be ordering that. Went and demoed a pair of k701s and the HD598s. The 598s sounded great unamped in my iphone, but the 701s were just so much more comfy - but damn they're hard to drive. Hooked them up...- HyperionXL
