Agreed. What the K701 lacks in specificity [relative to the K501], it abundantly makes up for with versatility. : )
And . . . to be completely honest with you, if I were absolutely forced to keep one and only one of the two, in greater likelihood they would be the K701 (given the broad scope of my listening preferences). A distressing dilemma, indeed!
