Akg K7xx Review The Best Monitoring Reference Headphones 5.6. comfort. 9.0. 8.6. akg has a rich history in terms of monitoring headphones, and its k7 series has been responsible for several industry legends. among them are the 65th anniversary akg k702 reference headphones, upon which the limited edition k7xx—being reviewed here—are based. these come in an all black version, or all black with red. Akg has followed up the k701’s success with revised versions that include the k702, q701, k702 65th anniversary edition (msrp $650), and k712 pro. akg’s k7 series headphones have always included their most premium reference headphones, offering the best of akg technology until the recent release of their current flagship, the k812 pro in 2013.
Akg K7xx Review The Best Monitoring Reference Headphones The massdrop x akg k7xx red edition however has attracted more demand for its look for a specific reason that most reference or monitoring headphones are usually found in single color or metallic finish at the max. it has a black body with ruby red accents that give the headphones an attractive and less serious look. Lets start with the benefits. first of all, the added bass really makes the headphones warm and full. compared to the stripped down and cold sound of other akg models, the akg k7xx with its added bass really helps bring the fullness in music and makes genres such as jazz and edm much more enjoyable. Akg k7xx is a massdrop exclusive headphone. this one is more exclusive though, as it’s colored red instead of the full black one. k7xx is a reconfigured version of akg’s 65 anniversary model; k702 and the main purpose was to improve low frequencies and making a more flexible sound overall. if you’ve seen my , i’ve talked about how great. The headphones came in a simple "presentation" box with one cable. no other accessories were included, again understandable, but still a bit troublesome. a shorter cable would have been greatly appreciated, as the one included with the headphones is around 8 feet long (and a proprietary plug, gdi akg).
