Doesn't sound right. K702's bass should be lean, but also extremely clean. If it's distorting, I'd RMA asap.
Totally agree - if you are getting actual distortion, you should RMA the K702.

I spoke with Jason @ Schiit, and he said i need to run these for about a week or so straight, to break them in, with the volume knob around the 11:00-12:00 position....
I plug my ATH A700's into the Valhalla, and they sound AMAZING turned up about the 2/3 position on the amp. No distortion at all...
the K702's sound like complete crud at that volume level.... Will breaking them in fix this? because I'm extremely unimpressed. To the point of sending them back.
sorry... okay.... the highs and the mids sound decent, but the bass distorts pretty bad. i mean, these headphones have no bass... at all... i mean, i love bass, but i wasn't looking for a heavy bass headphone. these were twice the price of my ath's, so i figured it would have at least the ammount of bass they do, if not more. but what I'm getting, literally, my iphone ear buds have just as much bass if not better. honest.. another thing, with my a700s, with the amp at the 12 o'clock position, they are louder then the 702s.
but my a700s sound better all around right now on this amp. mids, higs, lows (are much better)
