When it comes to headphones, you may know of the "S" brands: Sennheiser, Sony, and Shure, but audiophiles have long been listening to Austrian-made AKG Acoustics. As a long time user of AKG headphones, we felt it worth our (and your) time to introduce you to a set that might not necessarily fly on...
They're expensive, but the K 702 professional, over-the-ear headphones offer near state-of-the-art sound quality that's only bettered by much more expensive rivals. The extra-soft ear pads are also so comfortable that you're likely to forget you're wearing headphones at all
Super-comfy; over-the-ear design; Excellent sound quality; Detachable headphone cable
No travel bag or storage case included
A lot of high-end headphone manufacturers like to portray their designs as "professional" models, but in the case of the AKG K 702 that's exactly what it is. These new pro headphones bear a striking resemblance to the company's K 701 consumer headphones, except the new model sports "features...

Unless I have around $500 just for buying a pair of headphone, I don't think I will be giving these up. If you can find these at around $300 or the K712 for a little bit more than $300, it is definitely worth considering, but if you wanted something warm and bassy with great sound resolution, I...

AKG K 702 REFERENCE OPEN BACK HEADPHONES  
These are a great sounding pair of headphones

I purchased my K702's to use in Professional Reference Situations (ie - Film Post, Recording, Mastering). In my search for a pair of Professional Circumaural, Dynamic, Open-Back Reference Headphones, I narrowed my search to two models. The Sennheiser HD650's and the AKG K702's respectively.
The much-discussed "veil" of the HD650 is immediately discernable, influencing what sounds like the upper midranges of human voice frequencies. The AKG K702 has a very fast rate of rendition, and this can be heard in the difference in older rock CDs which sound voice-muddled on the HD650.
Arrived on time packed well. Very pleased with my new headphones they sound great, also very comfortable and light on your head plus a good length on the cable too
