AKG K702 Headphones vs Audio Technica ATH-M50x

Very comfortable on extended wear. The best thing is these are very good on long listening sessions, no fatigue or abrasiveness. A bit too warm, noticeable on female vocals. Bass is a bit too prominent on jazz and chamber pieces

No scratches, no loosened parts, no cracks, NOTHING. These are SOLID. If you were to choose one last pair of headphones and head out to Narnia where you won't be buying any new ones any time soon, these would be the ones. What's more, I recently looked for someone who dismantled them online, or straight up broken them, to have a better look at their insides and I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the ENTIRE HEADBAND is made out of METAL

If you've invested in some good audio gear, these AKGs will let you hear a lot more of what your setup is capable of. I would recommend them if you're...

There’s a little of the upper mids sucked out which most people won’t want anyway. Also, they are super easy to drive, so no need for an amp. Noise isolation is mediocre. Overall, a perfect headphone for your average person who “wants a nice pair of headphones” but doesn’t want a big commitment

There are so many other great headphones for this kind of money! I think I would have kept them if they were about $175 but definitely not the mid $300 range. I hope this helps someone make the right decision!

hence price, and 4 star rating. But, if you want quality sound at an affordable price, without breaking the bank. Pick yourself up a pair of these bad boys.

It's not quite as light as the K240, but the cups are deeper, and you won't have issues with the driver hitting your ears and causing discomfort. Furt...

(score: 90/100 points) Pros –It does a variety of tasks really good with no real weakness at anything. It’s best for listening enjoyment…not professional studio monitoring as advertised. It has very warm sounding vocals, a balanced sound (with very slight favor to lower mid range & upper bass), and comfortable (loose) fit on my ears/head. It handles thick, polyphonic music passages with ease without distortion…while keeping the main melody/vocals volume and tone quality still cutting through with warmth

Far from portable, the K 702 is a very large over-the ear set of headphones, with extra soft velour covered cushions. The real leather/metal wire headband distributes the weight of the 'phones evenly across your head, which means you can wear these headphones for hours at a time and they'll remain nice and comfy. And the headband is clearly marked "L" and "R" so you'll never make a mistake when donning the headphone. The K 702 is hand assembled and tested in Austria, which shows in that build quality, fit, finish, and durability are all first-rate

They are a bit muted in the sound signature which can make them less fatiguing than other, more analytical, headphones. Mids - A bit to high level for me, it tended to make punk rock music sound very close and muddied Lows - A bit boomy but very spacious Audio Technica ATH M-50x Highs - Quite good representation, a bit cold though Mids - Nothing special, no major issues though Lows - Too over-emphasized -----------------Comfort--------------- Beyerdynamic DT 770 - Winner Perfect. I wore these on multiple occasions for more than 7 hours and never noticed any pressure points or discomfort. The headband is larger than average to distribute the pressure

I paired these headphones with Ear Studio, ES 100 Bluetooth reciever. This allows you to adjust the output that the headphones recieves. It also allows you to plug headphones into it and stream the music from your music device you are using, I Phone works great! They are worth $100, to be wireless.

I would consider [Audio Technica its $180 usd on Amazon and has the luxury of being wireless but with the option for a wired connection as well. They are more neutral sound wise but i go running in them while mainly listening to deep house, hip hop and a little bit of soul, i find the bass isn't really lacking and the isolation is pretty good but if they are a bit bright and or the isolation isn't quite where you want you could look into getting some replacement pads like Dekoni elite sheepskins later down the line to increase both bass and isolation
