the CONS of K701..
1. Its darn big (HP890 still the biggest mudafcuka out there). u cant let it rest on ur neck to answer or call or sumthing.
2. Cable is kinda..flimsy and cheap, haha! And the connector has no marking watsoever, Senns and Grado has the brand tag on the connector, pity AKG.
3. The bundled 6.8-3.5mm converter looks like chapalang one u get from the store..seriously, quality wise difference la.
4. The resting pad (dunno what they are called) seems to be made of packed cupboard, dem light, looks like metal and kewl, but feels like polystyrene).
5. akg metal wire headband aint even wire, kinda soft n fragile to carry it by that point, thus dont hope on hanging ur k701 on headphone stand..not me, no no.
6. its a whole plastic fettish, things that u think are metal are plastic that are painted with metal texture.
7. the retention mechanism uses small elastic thread..great..how long will these lasts?
8. After sum time, as ppl say, the headband middle bump will press on ur head and kinda uncomfortable.
9. the cup cushion is not that soft, so it cant really fir to your head, had to spend sum time properly sitting the pads on ur skull.
10. WHO THE HELL CARES, they sound so dem NICE
