Where can I buy a pair of K712 pro pads for my K702 ?
The pads on my K7XX are a tad compressed compared to K712 but are similar, basically the same just mine are smaller. The K702 with K712 pads sounds horrible unless you put the K712 foam in and then they sound close. The K712 is closer to the K701 and K702 than it is to the Q701.
The base of the drivers are the same but the Q701 and K712 have slight differences..All is subtle.
The construction is actually VERY solid. The arms and headband are the exact same metal as the Beyers 770/880/990/T70, meaning, rugged as all hell.
You would literally have to be an absolute clumsy person to break these.
I haven't listened to them for long, but I can already say that their signature is already much more appealing to me than the all the other Beyers I've reviewed. This is not to say it's technically better than the rest. I'm referring to subjective preference of tonal balance. It is a REALLY easy headphone to get into from first listen with nothing that sticks out like a sore thumb, like the treble happens to be on all the other Byeres I've reviewed.
These are early impressions, so I'll dial in what's good and bad later. Just, I can tell these are winners.
