I hope a ton of people will flood akg's facebook page with saying how much they want the k 1000 I think this will play a big part of their desicion if to remake them or not

They have to revive it. How can they not have a flagship?

With no R/D cost and tooling, the price should be decent. If they come out with a large price tag, Phaw!

Marketing...

 

Is that all they can do anymore?

If they do remake the K 1000, I hope they don't just do something like a re-release.  As a lot of people who love the K 1000 admit, it isn't without its flaws.

 

I would definitely like to see AKG put some work into improving a headphone like the K 1000; at the same time, I hope that work wouldn't divert resources away from their developing a successor to the more-traditional K 701.

And what have people been requesting,bass light or heavy versions.Or do they want another flavour which a K1000 it will not be.

 

And as for no tooling costs that would mean all the original was kept and it is in pristine condition.

 

And last but by no means least how much will they cost and how many will they sell.(Head-Fi is a very very small community).

 

There is no point in expressing interest less you specify a price point you are willing to pay,I see people with a lot of interest in many things till they know the bottom line.

 

If you want a cheap version maybe a Chinese manufacturer could knock up a few imitations.

Also put in a word. It's not like it can hurt at this point. I just want them to do something.
