u never tried AEGO..

And I just reach 2000 post. "Bumpo". Can you dont spam?

Listening to the AKG K701 and comparing it to the HD600, the HD600 is more musical to me.

With the AKG K1000 in posession and my future headphone for reference (with a HD600 or 650 perhaps for anything bass-heavy) I'm likely to be selling the AKG K701 because it falls short of the HD600.

haha...Devil's is calling.... ~~! Perhaps u need HEED to drive ur AKG701?

I don't need a HEED

Oh! The K701 hype is getting weaker

aiseh, what takes you so long to reach 2000 post?

HD600 may be more musical, just like how i felt that my previous Grado has an edge compared to my K701. Bass is stronger, livelier, and who cares about soundstage anyway? Moreover if we want to discuss on "musical" terms, what should be considered as musical? Isn't that depends on your preferred music genre? For example, rock lovers will find Grado and Alessandro more musical than any Sennheisers or AKG. In fact Ijan says his K701 is excellent on Jazz. As for me, i would say my ex Grado and my K701 are both musical, but they excel in different music genre.

Owning a K701 gave me a pleasant and wonderful experience. It is like God gifted me a baby, which i nurture her with love songs and romantic tunes. Watch her starts to crawl, watch her learns to walk, learns to speak... The evolution of sound was very obvious, and i would say now my K701 sounded so much better than the 1st day i acquired her. Bass is finally here, not as strong as my ex Grado but it is well present. However there's no denial that the K701 suits me better compared to my ex Grado.

I like it but I can't afford to keep both with the K1000

It isn't a justified decision *to keep both. I would prefer to keep both, but I just don't have enough money lying around to fund the repairs.

Well, you do know that you might be the 1st lowyatian to own the K1000 don't you? Don't forget to post a review!

By the way, what headamp will you use to power your K1000?

I haven't decided yet.

I have to send it for a fix-up, get it back, figure out my funds then sit down for an amplifier.

I'm still torn between a balanced beta22 and a First Watt F1 (using the Benchmark DAC1 as a preamp to control the volume).

I'm more keen on the balanced beta22 though, mainly because of it's cheaper price and it is a DIY amp (I wouldn't be DIY-ing it though). Moreover, the beta22 would be able to work with the Sennheisers as well.

Undecided because I have no money just yet.

how much u plan to sell off ur AKG 701 is much more a concern to this forum right now..

btw, how much u get for the K1k?

Working dude... where got time to post many stuffs here...

edit : calculated wrongly
