Hi all,
A year and an amp ago I bought a K701, but I didn't love it, so I returned it. Having grown curious to hear its sound again, I ordered another pair, which arrived last night. Today I listened to it for about an hour but found it very congested, as if I were listening to my music through three pipes, one right channel, one center channel, and one left channel.
I know everyone says the K701 needs a lot of burn-in, up to several hundred hours. My question to those with K701 experience is: does burn-in resolve the congestion?
(By comparison, my defoamed HD 650 with Equinox cable sounds very open and natural.)
Thanks,
Eric.
