AKG K 702 Premium Class Reference Headphones

The Austrian leaders in professional headphones give us the AKG K702, a full size open-back audiophile model delivering precise musical articulation, an engrossing 'front row' presentation and a convenient detachable cord. World-class reference performance rivaling four-figure cans at a fraction of the price. 

Like the brother AKG K701, the K702 are nowhere near their acoustic potential out of the box; patience and a long 'break-in' period gets rewarded with a head full of beauteous tunes. Midnight Black color. Detachable 10ft headphone cable.

AKG Acoustics in Austria has brought their superlative audio engineering skills into sharp focus on their high-end dynamic headphone designs and they undoubtedly produced a superb pair of cans with their K702 model. The only differences between the sibling K701 and K702 AKG headphones is the color scheme and the K-702's handy detachable cord, which makes it a breeze to upgrade or replace if needed.

As headphone lovers know, getting it absolutely right at this demanding level of reference audio performance - at this price - ain't easy. We think the AKG K702 gets it pretty darn near perfection.

These headphones deliver a truly dynamic and texturally punchy sound, articulate and clear over the entire audio spectrum. Precise musical detail connoisseurs should appreciate the clean extension and tightly focused bass control. Classical and acoustic music aficionados will love the fact that the dynamic control moves right on up the frequency range to distinctly articulate every finger pluck and rosin-on-gut string texture in the mix.
