The AKG K 702 Open Back Dynamic Reference Headphones offer an ultracomfortable way to enjoy sound that's remarkably more open than most sets; they're like personal speakers for your head.
The AKG K 702 Open Back Dynamic Reference Headphones will set you back about $500, but the cushy design, pro touches, and excellent sound quality will make them a good investment for some.

The earpads of the K 702 headphones are quite large, with extrasoft velour-covered cushions. This, combined with the well-designed headband, makes them extra comfortable, even for extended wear.

AKG includes a 10-foot long cable that's removable--a good thing, as it makes it easier to replace. It attaches to any audio source via a standard 3.5mm jack, but the package also contains a gold-plated screw-on 6.3mm adapter.

The one thing missing from the box is a storage case or travel pouch of any kind. Considering the price of the headphones, we expected something of this type in order to protect them when not in use.
