Hi
I have been listening to my K702 for the last two weeks and i have owned the mighty K1000 in the past. The K702 at the moment is pretty well matched with the matrix m-stage. To my ears, the K702 amped by the matrix m-stage sounds strikingly similar to a poorly amped K1000. This led me to wonder whether the K702 needs powerful amping like its big brother. Hence i connected the K702 to a cheap HLLY t-amp and imediately the bass felt stronger and the treble quietened.The t-amp did produce a lot of noise but the entire signature of the K702 changed.
Hence, i just want to know if anyone has tried the K701/2 with speaker amps or more powerful amps and if you can share your experience. I feel the power needs for these headphones lie somewhere between normal headphones and K1000. Any chance someone tried the K702 out of the SACK1000?
