Hello all...I'm looking at buying some AKG K701's, but I'd REALLY like to give them a try before I shell out that much money. I mean, the frequency response graph looks nice and all, but I can only tell so much from that. I also find that what I hear varies wildly from everyone else, so some review saying "ZOMG!!! These are awesome!!!!1!!" means next to nothing for me.
What I'm looking for is someplace in the metro Detroit area that offers a "try before you buy" service. So far the only place I've found is "Overture Audio", and they only sell Grado phones (I actually purchased some SR 125's from them). The only place I've actually been able to find AKG phones in general in stock has been guitar center, but they still don't have the 701's, and I doubt they'd let me try them out...(maybe).
So does anyone from this area know of a good shop that'll let you give them a try before you buy?
Thank you in advance for any help.
