ok so which are better the k712 or the annies ?
You don't get the good headband, which is so worth it over the Q701.
+1
As having owned both, and having a bald head, the bumps on the Q701 used to leave imprints on my head lol... seriously. I tried different light mods (child seatbelt cover, beyer headband pad) and it just made them look too goofy for me.
The Annies are now the most comfortable headphone I've ever tried (photo finish race with the X1)

any word on how the Annies comapre to your Maddog? I own a T50RP so Im familiar with the sound signature of the headphone.
AKG K712 Pro - with serial number 000103. Which I think is the proof that K712 is recolored K702 65th.
Are you saying there is a link between the serial number and there being proof that the K712 is a recolored Annie? I'm not seeing why so I may be misunderstanding you.
I remember that someone in K702 65th thread quoted someone from AKG that they are using numbers from 0-100 (or 0-500, or even 0-1000) for they internal tests. So it would be impossible to buy those headphones. Because my headphones have really low number and there were few people who had them already so AKG would not have enouth test-headphones to create "new" product. So I believe that they just recolored Annies. And if there were any changes except color, they are very small.
Today I get my new toys
From left:
AKG K601 (serial number: 10686) - this one is actually my old toy but with new pads.
ASUS Xonar Essence One Muses Edition - connected via toslink to Xonar STX (because of gaming )
and the main guest: AKG K712 Pro - with serial number 000103. Which I think is the proof that K712 is recolored K702 65th.
If someone is interested in I can do some review/comparison between those. I also have K550 (not at the photo, I keep them at work). But I am not really audiophile or any audio/music specialist so I won't be great review. If someone is interested I also have pads (angled?) from K702 (if I would know that they are different from K701 I would try got those too), so small pad-mods is also possible.
