I don't find the 701 tizzy, just bright.
Take a look at the 701 measurements here. Leading edge spike of the 300Hz square wave is distinct (though too high) and has relatively little subsequent ringing...there is a bit.
But then take a look at the K812 measurements here. Leading edge of the 300Hz square wave is all over the place as is the impulse response.
-
Tyll, do they sound much different than the K 701, then? Are they easier to drive?
They're pretty inefficient as I recall. Overall balance is better than the 701, but it's tizzier too.

They're not a zingy as the T1, but they ring a bit. Kinda sounds like there's always a triangle (the instrument) in the treble info. Measurements show a pretty severe double peak on initial 300Hz leading edge. Imaging and resolution aren't as good as the HD800, but I think I like the overall tonal character better. Very nice comfort and build quality. The included headphone stand is a nice touch, but the cable seems a bit cheezy for a $1500 headphone.

Non-attachement, dude. You'll see the beauty soon.

Yeah, just because it's neat doesn't make it right.
-
Nah, sorry, didn't hear it.
I am on the list for a production sample when available though.

Heard you got a unit of the fidelio L2 lying around, initial impressions? =D
Pretty good, but not great...a little too early to tell though.
-
Some people say that are more open and brighter than the Momentum which would be nice.
I'd say that's a fair statement; not brighter by a lot, though, and having tighter, more impactive bass. So it's not as simple as just saying their brighter.

Yuppers....almost felt I oughta wrap that post up in tin foil and send it down the river...but hey, it was pretty funny so I let it stand. Takes all kinds.
Be fun to do a review on the new Monsanto Headphone amp for April 1st.

Listening is Subjective (Personal opinion)
Measuring is Objective (Standard units of measure)
Just like motherhood and apple pie
Funny...I just wrote about this.

Got one coming....we'll see.

Nah, the 880-600 is pretty good, as is the DT250-250, DT23,1 and DT1350...
...Other than that though, pretty lackluster.

See innerfidelity.com
Shit, I'm saying HD600, too. Love 'em.
-
I heard the Geek Out at CnJam and was pretty stunned. It sounded great.
Bottom line: I really don't think you have to spend too much money getting very good sound these days.

Bet he had some fun, though. RIP Lou.

AKG K812
in Headphones
Posted
Ya know, AKG comes out with a brand new can that's ToTL...that's big news...how can I not.
OTOH, I hate writing bad reviews.
OTOH, maybe if I did they'd get their shit together and start trickling down the work that Sean Olive is doing faster.
OTOH, fuck...I got better things to review.
OTOH, WTF were they thinking?
Fuck...I sorta don't know what to do...
What do you guys think?
