WTB: Beyer 880 or AD700 or AKG 700/701 in Portland Area

Hey everyone - I live in Portland, Oregon and I'm hoping someone in my area has one of the cans listed in my thread title. I'll pay cash. I'm looking for an open set for gaming on my PC so if you have something else you think I might like, let me know. Looking to buy local only.

 

Thanks!

This is the only time I'll bump this, I promise. I know it is a long shot ...

I'm in Lake Oswego and have an AKG K702, send me a PM if you're still interested.

Could you PM your e-mail? I am unable to send another PM for today.

 

 

They're only about 2-3 months old. I'll sell them to you for $200.

 

I'm curious though why you want them? I must warn you that their sound is to a specific person. They may be complementing with video games, but you'll need an amp too.

I sent you another pm. I want to use the AKGs more-or-less exclusively for gaming on my PC. I'll be running them through an old Denon home theater receiver/amp connected to my (so-so) xfi soundcard. Later I might get a dedicated amp. When you say their sound is to a specific person, I take it you mean they have a very specific sound that not everyone will like? The reviews I have read all praise their soundstage, which is important for gaming. And their bass is supposed to be pretty decent too.

There are INCREDIBLE for gaming! Even though they thirst for more power, they sound great out of almost anything. They sound good out of my uDac and my Mixamp, even though they obviously don't show their potential with these! Grab a Matrix M-Stage if you have $250 to blow and never need another amp for these!

I bought the K702s off of EkehMayu. I may not be keeping them for very long--they definitely need a much better amp than the one I've got--but I wanted to give the seller some positive feedback. I was leery about buying headphones from someone who had never posted before, but the headphones are in perfect condition and I have no complaints.
