NEW! AKG K702 Anniversary Edition
I had to buy it because it says "Limited Edition" on the box. Stay tuned for my unboxing and comparison to K701 & Q701.

Mike.......God help you if AKG ever produces a headphone where they print 1 of 25 on the box. It will probably bankrupt you.

Mike,
You must have as many headphones, as I have records, lol. What is your everyday "GO TO" model? In other words, of you were stranded on a desert island, with only one set to choose from, what would they be? Inquiring minds what to know what the" headphone king" would choose. Well, at least I do. Scott

It's a tough choice since I like so many. If I had to take ONE with me it would be............................ Logitech UE6000 @$199. It plays very nice with my iPhone 4S.

Any sound difference? When will AKG make a flagship headphone like the HD800/PS1000/T1/HE6/009?

I compared the Q702 vs. K702 ANV The basic signature is the same. I do find the midrange on ANV is slightly smoother with less edge. Bass is a little fuller. Nothing really jumps out and tell you that you are listening to a "better" K702. You won't be able to tell unless you compared the two side by side, critically. The million dollar question, is it worth getting the anniversary version? Yes, if you like a more comfy fit, slightly smoother sound with improved bass response and it's Limited release. More to come.
