A while ago, at a local store, I found out that the K701 are extremely picky to amp. When plugged into one headphone amp, it sounded beautiful with lots of detail and bass impact. After inserting them to another amp from a similar price range, all the good detail, bass impact and soundstage dissappeared. I guess this would explain all the K701 hate around here.
Personally, I like the K701's sound when amped properly. The only reason I didn't get one was because I doubt my receiver would be able to do that. I'm more than happy with my DT880 though.
