I may opt for it just for the sake of budget to drive my K701. Is it possible?

iinm, it is a DAC

definitely not. I placed my order for k701. The rest i wanna get is amp. but i am noob to drive this little baby. I know I at least get a fiio E7+E9, but the budget does not allow me to do so. So i guess is the DAC able to drive it or not.

Interested in this headphone as I can get the price for around RM570++, not sure it is suitable for my taste.. I prefer neutral and flat response without any colorations.

Yup. But it looks like got mini XLR connector instead of the usual mini jack ?

I can get K240 MkII for less than RM500 lol. (It's 99 Pounds here)
i doubt there are counterfeits for K240 MkII, too.

Hey guys, AKG cans owner reporting in. Just purchased the K518DJ. Waiting for it to arrive. I can't wait to test it, I hope I made the right choice on buying it. This is my first step to becoming an audiophile. Any good tips on what I should do or purchase? I usually listen to music on my laptop or my phone. From what I read about, I would need a DAC/Amp to boost the sound quality. So guys, any help?

Add an amp will boost the bass even the headphone not good in bass?

Using AKG 77 now.

Waaaa, otai sudah mari. Bro I heard you org lama in audio stuff. Thanks for your input. But since I'm not using any desktop, would that be a wise decision? I only use it with my laptop and phone. 

Right about that. Just collected the can this afternoon. Went back home to test it for a few songs and my god! I just found sound heaven! By far the best soundwaves that came through my ears man! I can't imagine what higher end cans sounds like. So bro, is the e7 enough to drive the K518DJ? I'm thinking of getting one. You're selling it right?

Out of curiosity, would the E7 make any significant difference in the quality? Simply put, do I really need a USB DAC/Amp for my K518DJ with sources from laptop and phone?

Hello,

Newbie in audio accessories (or whatever it is called) reporting!

Just got myself an AKG Q350 (Black) from E1 - AKG!

Such a great headphone and with nice style

I never have an interest in getting a branded and expensive earphone just to hear musics, heck, I don't even have any idea on it.
Hopefully I could learn as much as possible from you guys and of course, Mr Google. Hehe.

Currently pairing it with my iPod and will definitely get a good MP3/MP4 player in the near future.

Thank you E1 - AKG

If portable ver? Any amp reco? I might raise my budget to 3k if my next month allowance increases.

Sorry to burst your bubbles but, Q701 is just a rebranded K702, with new fancy color schemes, and yeah..Quincy Jones's signature.
That's it. Sure..it's still a Flagship but it's not exactly NEW.
K701/2 is not replaced by Q701 and thus..."The new Flagship is now Q701" sounds wrong to me.

Oh?
Can you please then tell me what is the differences?
I am interested to know.I'd like to test it myself but  I really can't be bothered to fork out another 200GBP+ for a Q.

lol! Its like he just shot himself in the foot stating earlier that q701 is AKG's flagship.

Er, cable makes that difference? means basically q701 and k702 is still same unit except diff cable? how much the cable cost?

Changed a cable and doubled the price, and then it's called as new flagship? Now it's interesting.
