I just purchased a pair of k701 headphones, and while I absolutely love the sound of them, they distort as soon as I turn the volume up to a normal listening level.
I thought perhaps it was just a problem with this pair of headphones, but now I see after the purchase that this is a problem with quite a few people on this forum.
Has anyone had a chance to compare HD650's to K701's and did you notice that the HD650's had any distortion like the K701's do?
Also, I am running a PS Audio DLIII DAC connected to a RSA Raptor. I have tried 3 other pairs of headphones that I own, (DX1000, Edition 9, D5000) and there is no distortion that I can detect at a normal listening volume level with any of these headphones, so I do not believe it could be coming from my source or amp.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
