wait till you had realised the real potential of the q701, you will most probably move heaven and earth to get the setup right

it is a really good all rounder, a little light on bass for bass heads, otherwise good balanced performance

If you are referring to the new K712, it is already in-stock. Slightly cheaper than the K702

sell it and buy the K712 instead

me, why

RM2k

In audiophile world, the increment do get smaller as you go higher up the price range

Doubling the price does not equals to double the performance

the unit is barely 24 hours into the burn-in process, can't really comment, will do a comparison next week when it has crossed the 300 hours mark as the Q701 is already around 500 hours

not sure how many of you here do visit Singapore, do have some of the major flagships AKG Q701, K712Pro, K612Pro, Beyerdynamic DT880, DT990, Shure SRH1440, SRH1840 available for comparison

sounds more like your source problem instead

If you are in KL, you can always drop by Sg Wang to test it

it will shine only after 500 hours

sadly, Harman has fed the AKG brand to the dogs.

The truth of the matter is AKG is shutting down one factory. However, the factory to be striped down is AKG’s Austrian headquarters in Vienna. The branch which has been around for nearly 70 years, will be laying off employees through June 2017. It is reported 131 employees will be affected. According to derStandard.at, “parent company Harman says it was a difficult decision that they were forced to make due to tough competition in the audio market” and “R&D teams that developed their products WILL NOT BE retained by Harman.”

There goes the Austrian heritage of AKG

Then Harman as a group, was sold to Samsung

Samsung Electronics has announced a deal to buy U.S. car infotainment and audio company Harman in an all-cash transaction, valued at about $8 billion.

As the first stage of this audio collaboration, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 will debut with quad stereo-sound speakers tuned by AKG.
