I want to change the standard AKG cable of my K702 with a new one
Yesterday I have E-Mailed to MoonAudio and for BlueDragon but after some round in the net I see some message told that BlueDragon V.2 and HD800 are not so good because the low frequency, after the change ofthe cable was dissapear

I know that now is available the BlueDragon V.3, could you tell me more information about BlueDragon and K702 feelings ?
is it the right new cable for K702 ?

Thanks

There has never been a Blue Dragon V2 HD800 cable. Only Version 3. So that cant be true. We have not received any complaints of lack off bass with the Blue Dragon V2. The HD800 requires the right amp to be able to offer good low end. I have found it is more Amp dependant than any other headphone on the market.
For the AKG K702 the best 2 cables are the Blue and Black Dragon. The Black Dragon is the cable to use for Hard wiring as it adds fullness and low end to the AKG. The Blue Dragon is more neutral and will add some low end punch but not as much as the Black. However for detachable cable I find the Black Dragon too stiff with a single entry. The Blue Dragon is more flexible and the better choice for this situation.
Look in the fedback post I think there is a AKG K702 Blue Dragon Review. If not there it is somewhere on HeadFi.

I'm also looking to upgrade my stock K702 cable, and very much like the sound and appearance of the offering from DHC. The Blue Dragon offering seems very similar, and I'm not sure what the differences in these might be. In addition, there are two other options I'm considering as well listed below.

I'm not a DIYer, so want to get the most bang for my buck fully assembled.

My head is about to explode from all the info and claims on these four products, and I may give it some time before making a decision.

Can anyone comment on these competitive products, and why any of these would be superior in quality to the others? Thanks a lot!

The Cardas is a much warmer lusher laid back cable. We also sell these. If you are into Classical music it is the way to go. Cant comment n the other 2.
