I see you have your mind made up already, but just curious about the step down part.

i just don't think they sound natural.

i've not made my mind up yet. it's just that akgs are really cheap at the moment.

i can get a new akg 702 for €220 ($305), but i am a bit worried if my turtle beach audio micro will cope.

It won't even come close.... That tiny USB powered device will struggle more than a regular iPod. And iPod wouldn't be the best source for a 702 either =b

hi acidx, thx for the suggestions:

are the k phones akgs?

what is the difference between the 240df and mkII

plus aren't the newer ones the akg k242 and k272?

i'm leaning toward the akgs as they have a good price/performance ratio in europe at the moment and look really comfy.
