AKG K701 Open-Back Headphones

Full Description

Patented Varimotion Diaphragms

Revolutionary sonic performance. The K701s feature AKG's patented Varimotion twin-layer diaphragms. This multi-layer design combines two different materials to create a rich, dramatic listening experience. The first layer optimizes the diaphragm's motion, whilst the second helps to minimise undesirable breakup modes. With this technology, the diaphragm's thickness is varied throughout, providing an 80-micrometer centre-zone for a well-balanced frequency response, and a 40-micrometer perimeter for precision mid-range and bass reproduction.

Each transducer also features a flat-wire voice coil, offering further improvements to the treble and impulse response, as well as their sensitivity. Combined with an open-back earcup design, these reference-grade headphones have become an industry-favourite for professionals and audiophiles all over the world. Whether you're producing, mixing, mastering, or listening, the AKG K701 Open-Back Headphones are the perfect platform for getting great sound.

Incredible Comfort

Designed with comfort and style in mind. Unique 3D-Form ear pads and an ergonomic padded genuine-leather headband ensure that you remain pain-free and comfortable, even during the longest of sessions. The ear pads feature an innovative gel construction with a super-soft lining. They provide an optimum fit to envelope your ears with outstanding comfort and the best possible sonic performance. Plus, with the self-adjusting headband design, you'll never have to worry about fiddling with positions ever again. Simply put the headphones on, and enjoy a truly immersive listening experience.
