Even if I'm alteady happy with my current headphones, I always like to try some new stuff, even more if it's cheap and even more if it can be modded (the funniest part imo). Plus it will be my first planar pair (never tried planars, only dynamics and an e-stat).
What do you think about this headphones at this price? Have you ever had experiences with both V1 and V2 versions?
Peace✌🏻
I dunno, I got a pair of AKG K702 for $144 on Amazon. Thought that was a pretty damn good deal.
Had those K702 (Austrian pair, which is kinda rare nowadays). Personally I think they have an unique sound, but not for everyone. They're spacious and detailed, but also very bass light, upper mids/treble focused and somewhat "distant" sounding. Most of the people will be happier with other headphones, but maybe a 5% of them would call this their favourite one.
Yeah definitely they are going to be preference/use case specific. For my purposes I think they are probably the best choice - reference headphones for composing and mixing classical and orchestral score.
