In the U.S., the Q701 can be had for $230 +/-, which is significantly cheaper than the price of its K brothers 701/2.
Quote:Okay so I am looking for a new pair of headphones for home use with my PC. These headphones will be used for Studio Mixing via 1/4", listening to music and gaming via Astro Mixamp. I have picked out a few headphones just wondering what would be the better choice. Shure SRH840 or AKG Q701, Any other suggestions would be okay. Price Range is $250 or below. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. I also use a Behringer 502 5 Channel Mixer with a AT2020 (If the microphone matters..). And I listen to computer sound through the mixer as well. And I have a Fiio E6 I use with my Klipsch S4. Not sure if the E6 would make a difference as a weak amp. I plan on getting a Fiio E11 or something in that price range. I also use the Astro Mixamp when gaming.
Wouldnt buy the Q701 cause the K701 are allmost the same for much less money. You should also take a look at the Beyersynamic Dt800 600Ohm.
