I have a pair of AKG K172 Pro headphones, which I got for only €198. I think it's an absolute bargain for what these headphones are. At that time, I was looking for something higher-end and tried the Hifiman Ananda and Arya, the Audeze LCD-2C, and the Meze Audio 109 Pro. Finally, when I found the offer for the AKGs and saw such good reviews, I decided it was a better investment to buy them and see how they performed, rather than risking spending much more. That's why I like these comparisons, because if at some point I decide to buy something more expensive and theoretically better, I would like to be sure that I will really notice a difference. Right now, I'm attracted to the Hifiman Arya Organic, but they cost €1300... they have to sound much better for me to buy them.

Is it worth it to get the akg k712 pro, when you already have the hd800 ? Build quality of hd800 sucks. I got to replace headband, earpads, cable, and paint is chipping. I also got to buy a case for the hd800, because the one provided sucks.

your ability to create a narrative using many words is weak. When I was 18 the average vocabulary was 55,000 words , today it has shrunk to 9,000 words, no words,= no ability to create a meaningful narrative. I've owned two hd 800 and they literally fall apart, worst built headphone i've ever owned and I paid $1500 and $1300 respectively, Of course the wire I use to hook them up with is my own, patented audio cable that is more linear in sound than anything ever made. The sound is linear and cohesive because the wire that I use is internally a litz stranded cable with magnet wire that is so tiny, it can't be seen in my hand unless I shine a light that can reflect off the polysol enamel coating, I'm rambling again, but it is lonely at the top.

I've had these and the Fidelio X2HR for a quite a while now and love'm both, but these AKGs are a cut above. I find the Fidelios a bit comfier but also warmer (heat) over time... The AKGs breathe better, despite the Philips being more open in sound. I really love them both and pick them up depending on mood, but the K712Pro is what I grab when I'm *really* wanting to listen closely. Just fantastic signature and soundstage.

I have used them DAILY while working and gaming (~10-12h a day), Never got fatigued and had countless music orgasms. AKG has really reached a big milestone with those. Every kind of music is just pure pleasure. I once had a guest come by and he found himself just laying down my couch for an hour listening to those :D

The AKG 712 pros are going to be my next and probably last headphones. I started with a pair of AKG 140's 30 years ago. At the time, I really wanted to buy the more "popular" Bose, but the pushy salesman convinced me about the AKG's. I have no regrets about that decision. Now I own the classic AKG 240's the (big brother to the 140's) and despite their low price I have not really thought about replacing them. They are that good ! With that said, the AKG 712's will probably take me to HI-FI heaven ! Thanks for the review, glad there are some AKG fans out there .
