AKG K702 Audiophile Circumaural Headphones
Recently i’ve been doing my best to search for a pair of audiophile headphones hopefully in time for university. However, do bear in mind that the label ‘audiophile’ is very, very subjective.
Came across this video by the Discovery Channel outlining how the AKG 702 headphones are made. The process and construction seems rather simple actually, as compared with speakers. For example, the Bowers and Wilkins diamond tweeters utilise chemical vapour deposition of carbon. That just makes any of the diaphragms in any headphone look positively neanderthal. >< I’m sorry, i’m just an equipment-whore at heart…
Moreover, every time i go back to listen to increasing numbers of headphones, i’m just reminded of how limited they are in terms of sound as compared to speakers…
How am i ever going to find a pair of headphones? :(
