What Buyers Say
AKG K702
The AKG K702 headphones are praised for their wide soundstage, detailed mids and highs, and exceptional comfort, making them ideal for analytical listening, gaming, and studio mixing. However, users consistently note a lack of bass, especially sub-bass, which can be partially addressed with EQ. They are considered a great value when on sale, but not recommended for bass-heavy music genres like heavy rock.

- Good value on sale
Cons
- Lack of bass
- Weak sub-bass
