AKG K7xx (Massdrop Edition) Headphones USD $225 (AUD $284.74) Delivered @Massdrop

120

EDIT: Ran out of stock within 2 hours :(

The currency conversion was done with Google, therefore YMMV. Only 200 available.
Please do note that it's being ship forwarded, so the delivery might be worse.
The price have gone up by USD $10, but I doubt you could find these anywhere, any cheaper.

Since they don't sell these anywhere else, I think I should mention similar models.
From staticICE
Q701 starts from $349 AUD from Minidisk
K702 starts from $289 AUD from Kogan

Don't forget that you are gambling on whether you might like it or not, if you buy it without giving it a go.
Do read the forum thread and look at frequency response, they give you some idea, but always read those "reviews" with a grain of salt.

Description

In 2012, AKG released the 65th anniversary edition of their K702 to instant acclaim. Built with a bass boost, improved comfort, and matched transducers, the limited edition K702 became a legend in the audiophile community for its sound and build quality. Following the success of the Q701 drop in June, we asked AKG if we could configure our own edition of the K702 65th, and they agreed based on their faith in the Massdrop community. Configured by Massdrop, manufactured by AKG, and made possible by you, the AKG K7XX Massdrop First Edition Headphones bring you rare sound at an even rarer price.

    Frankly speaking, I'd rather go for more acclaimed models or wait for AKG Q701 to be on Massdrop again, but, at least, I thought it's better to inform people than to let it pass.

  • Thanks for the heads up. Always good to see audio stuff on ozb.
