I am trying to decide between these two headphones;
Akg k271
Akg k701
I realize that the 271 are a studio ‘closed’ and the 701 ‘open’. They both seem to have good tonal qualities and comfort from what I can find. I would probably save about $100.00 going with the 271’s.
I will be using a Meier Airetta and would be listening to classical music in an audiophile type system; outside noise attenuation and comfort are considerations.
So, is there a big difference between these two for sound quality and comfort? And how much outside noise will I hear with the 701’s?
Please share your views and/or other considerations. Thanks Bob
