Q701 impressions thread
I had the K812s for all of ten minutes. They are probably the 1st time I had ever listened to a manufacturer's 'flag-ship' product and it was an almost a religious experience. The source material was not good, a 320 MP3 on my iPad (Diana Krall) and I hate MP3 as a standard because I can pick the...- morristhecat
