How is AKG K7XX compare with Beyer. DT150 and Yamaha MT220 with respect to overall SQ? I'm tempted by K7XX.
I am not worried about ubiquity, and can't imagine infamy for the moment. The only thought I had was that they said they had 6,000 KXXs last time and aren't saying how any now. just a certain number of days. Did that change and they are "limiting" this edition, to ??? Doesn't really trouble me as I rarely sell my gear, but if I were to do that, with these in the near future, the supply might exceed the demand.
I think it may be difficult to get back full $199 on these headphones now that there is no longer a hard cap on its supply, but you should be able to easily sell them at minimal loss in the future.
I have seen head-fiers moving first edition headphones at full price. probably will not be able to do that with the limited edition ones. still very nice well-performing headphones that punches way beyond its weight.
I bought mine to listen to, not sell. The price-performance ratio is superb on these, and I plan to keep them for a long time. Not concerned about resale value.
Picking up a pair of these this week. My first pair of AKG headphones...looking forward to testing them out. You guys have any amp suggestions? I might try and push for a Lyr 2 if it is in my budget but I would like to hear cheaper suggestions that would perform well with them. Thanks!

Gustard H10 $350 shipped. Sounds amazing with them. Aune T1 Mk2 as well as more affordable option. Or Cayin C5 if you need portable power.

Asgard 2 is also quite good with them. People seem to overlook it because it's one of the cheaper Schiit amps, but it's really quite versatile with the added gain switch and very low noise floor.
