AKG Q701 - Roughly £100 before duty

Ayahuasca · 20 Aug 2014 at 17:06

Money won't come out till the 27th will it? Still before pay day for most.

Flying_Hellfish · 20 Aug 2014 at 17:10

Wow. Under half the current river price and one-fifth of the RRP!

Cheer up TwsT, I might still sell mine. I currently only listen to one or two tracks with them.

I am after 650's but £95 is too cheap.

Little Dot MKII has a nice warmth to it (I actually fully believe its one of the best tube amps on the market...

I use the Little Dot MK2 with all my AKGs. It's a very lush, warm seductive sounding amp...

Hey,

Do the MK3 and MK4 share the warmth of the MK2?

[edit] Damn, just realized these are all pure amps - it would be great to have a DAC+Amp really, as I will be using with my PC mostly. Any recommendations please?

[edit 2] Any love for Aune T1 and T1 Mk2?

Cheers,

Su

Want these, but only in white and it seems they are no longer available in that colour. Dammit. = (

RavenXXX2 · 20 Aug 2014 at 19:42

Haha, "do the job" is good, but it would be nice to get the best out of them at a reasonable price... also keen to pair them with a tube amp to add warmth to the sound...

Cheers,

Su

Go for the HD600 cheaper than the HD650 and better sounding than the Q701

RavenXXX2 · 20 Aug 2014 at 20:01

Aune gets good reviews, I would go for that.

Sumanji · 20 Aug 2014 at 20:55

There's some horror stories from the last Aune T1 massdrop it seems... lots of damaged & poorly packaged items

Google isn't very forthcoming about other reputable places to buy one.

rids57 · 20 Aug 2014 at 21:13

got mine from those nice pigmies up the mighty big river, they've got canoes full of them, well five anyway

Psycho Sonny · 20 Aug 2014 at 21:36

Aune T1 is fantastic if you manage to get a decent one. I had a PSU issue with mine. They sent me a new one direct from china with no issues at all.

Sgt_Pepper · 20 Aug 2014 at 22:04

Joined the Group, only Lime left but they are only to replace my ageing Goldrings for general PC use so should be OK

Evian · 20 Aug 2014 at 22:07

Had nightmares with the headband on those, Sent them back and got the AKG K712 Pro's love them, Good luck with your purchases.
