I just got this in today. There was some power in it already, so as soon as I switched it on, it was lit. Attached the PSU, then hooked it up to my audio interface and started noticing a "Buzzzzz" sound. I have it going Dual RCA to Headphone output, is that why, or is it normal for this and...

I may get flamed for this, but an audiophile friend online told me he finds the K702 to have slightly more bass than the K701. I don't know how true that may be. I'd definitely like to do an A/B test myself if I can get a hold of them. In regards to the cans being bright, I can see now where...

  Quote: Well written post, and I couldn't agree with you more. I'm enticed to try out these headphones which please everybody. What are they called? ;-)   I came across this replacement cable for under $100...

I'm sorry to read some of ya feel negatively towards the K702's. I loved them out of the box on my focusrite device. I can't seem to match the sound glossary you guys have expressed to my experience thus far, so it's a bit of a head scratcher for me, however it may just be what I was after, as I...

Thanks Acix! :) I will be pairing them up with the low-end (correct me if I'm wrong, since they're the same price as a pizza delivery ) Bravo V2 (12AU7) tube amp. I've heard many great things about the combo. They're currently plugged directly into the Focusrite Saffire PRO 24 DSP, which is a...

  Quote: Oh... really? Well, I definitely don't just want a painting.   How about the Cardas Cable? Cheers Edit: Scratch that, I just saw the price tag. Any cables under $100 that will improve these?

  Quote: Great Scott! I want me those lush cables.    

I will continue to enjoy them thank you very much. :) I should have written my only true love, really, however we're still getting to know each other hehe. I don't think there's anything else I would want to get at the moment. I'd like to maintain the idea that I have the best headphones...

Perfect headphones to work on vocals with... possibly? hehe   About the EQ'ing. It's very possible to bring bass out of those cans, however there will be more noise than you could cope with and sound terrible obviously. If the lowpass shown in the graph continues the pattern down, there will...

  Quote:   I got the Bravo V2 coming in soon. I assume Matrix M-Stage is an amp that makes the best synergy with 702's? Edit: I got them Brand New Factory Sealed. See you in 300+ hours then :)   Quote: I can see why, man. I'm hearing textures I have never heard before even...

  Quote: Thanks man! I've probably written enough, but I forgot to mention they are very comfortable aswell. I was having trouble adjusting the D2000's which got annoying to the extent I wanted to throw them out the window. These sit perfectly on my big head! :)    

I just received my AKG K702, imported from US to Australia for AU$298 including shipping from eBay... what a steal! Wow! I was not expecting these to be this good after all the "plasticy" comments and unappreciation threads. Sorry, these are almost perfect and sound more fun to me than the Denon...

Thank you very much, Mad Max and hello again, I went with the 3.5mm to 2 RCA cable along with a 3.5mm to 1/4" adaptor (the amp and cables are yet to arrive) I wanted to also go with cables for the line outputs aswell, however I became a little confused again on the way :-)   The Audio...

Quote: I'm sorry. I failed to understand that. You've described the headphone output's extra amp circuit to provide more control and include a volume control, which enables it to have more features, whereas the line output has none, yet you say the line output comes out a little better...

Cheers, Mad Max. I'm not sure though, that I understand the issue with the extra amp circuit through the headphone output. Does that simply mean in the end the output from the amp will be louder? will there be some kind of unwanted noise connecting through the headphone output? Quality...

Thank you for your reply, Mad Max. Is it not ideal to use the headphone outputs instead of the line-outs? in order to activate VRM (Virtual Reference Monitoring) feature of the device, the audio needs to come out through the headphone jacks. I'm not 100% sure on this. Will there be a noticable...

Hello guys. I've recently purchased the Bravo V2 amplfier and an AKG K702 to go along with my Focusrite PRO 24 DSP Firewire audio interface ( http://www.focusrite.com/products/saffire/saffire_pro_24_dsp/Specifications/#Specifications ) I will be using one of the two headphone jacks to connect...

Sorry to have hijacked your thread.

I purchased this device and am using it with the Denon D2000's (I have no idea how I came about using these in the studio). One thing I've noticed after making the switch from Presonus FireBox to the PRO 24 DSP is the high impedance (With VRM turned on or off - doesn't seem to make a...

Holy moly. I wish I lived in the US... I would buy one right now without thought :(

Well, from what I've read The Sennheiser HD 448's fall into that price range and have high effenciency for portal devices, slightly less low-end than the aforementioned cans, but a better overall sound. They're known to be Sennheiser's best bang for the buck headphones. :)   Quote:

Hey :), What made you narrow it down to these two choices? The Sony MDR-7506's are used by Advanced Electronic Dance Music extrodinaire Paul van Dyk as his studio reference headphones on the road and has also stated he is able to get a production near finished without any other source but...

Here they are. I'm not sure I like the way they sit on the table... swayed to the side rather than sitting solid. Would they damage like that? Cheers

OK, the HD 650 purchase went on hault due to an issue with the seller (I'll later explain, once the issue resolved, so people may avoid wasting time) So, I've been listening to the D2000s and despite the best low-end I've ever heard in cans (personally) is it ok to feel disappointed with the...

I've had a few records out produced solely on the Sony MDR-7509HD which are becoming the new standard. They are closed and quite neutral with alot of detail. I programmed a whole sample cd with clicky clacky detailed sounds with them too. Speaking of them is actually making me want to purchase a...
