AKG K712 PRO HEADPHONES

 

The AKG 712 PRO deliver a great sound for critical listening. They're super comfortable headphones with a few more accessories than the or the . However, like the previous models, they're a bit bulky and cumbersome for everyday use. They also have an...

Great audio reproduction. ; Comfortable design.

Leak a lot, due to open-back design. ; Bulky and unstable headphones. ; No isolation from ambient noise, by design.

AKG K712 Pro Headphone

 

Performance Features Ergonomics Value

Headphone shoppers should never forget that sound quality should always be balanced with comfort. Sure, sound is the thing, but you’d be unwise to assume all headphones are equally comfy. I wish. The majority of full-size headphones on the...

excellent sound stage and great separation

 

excellent sound stage and great separation sound stage is wider and clearly can hear alot instruments. Comparing to my Audio technica 900, its vocal sound has great power rather than clarity- in my view not really feels like singing in front. Probably...

Best sub $600 headphone you'll find

 

One of the best open back headphones out there, former flagship of AKG. You can find this on sale in a lot of places now. This is often compared to the HD600 (or more commonly, the HD650 due to its bassier nature). Soundstage is amazing as is the...

Great Headphones

 

Bought these from JB Hifi and these are great and sound amazing, you can hear parts of the music you have never heard before like the clicking the song is keeping too, also you need to use hi res audio on these headphones as it just allows the detail...

1 year review.

 

Really rate the headphones. To put things into perspective I am a long time HD25 user, still use them on a daily basis. The AKG's have become the big boys that I use at home. I currently use the headphones with an apogee groove from my macbook pro....

Great for tuning & Engineering

 

These are very focused. Headphones and speakers are completely personal preference but these headphones really do stand up to other popular brands. The bass response is fantastic and stereo panning you can get out of these are amazing. I'm definitely...

The Fairest K7 Variant of Them All

 

Allow me to preface this review with some background information. I have experience listening to different present-day AKGs, including the Q701 Quincy Jones Signature, the K702 65th Anniversary Edition (Austrian-made), the K7XX Massdrop First Edition,...

excellent neutrality, excellent soundstage and imaging, neutral and detailed bass, well-balanced treble and mids, comfortable, highly musical for a K7

headstrap elastics weaken over time, needs high quality power to extract the bass impact, can sound harsh on the wrong system

Love these for almost everthing

 

I have these headphones for about 3 week and I think they are great for overal listening to music even for a long time, however I dont think you can drive them without an amplifier because the audio quality from a phone or just a poor build-in dac isnt...

Clear detailed sound, Deep bass, Confortable, Accessories(it came with a nice carrying bag and a coiled cable)

With some songs the bass is too harsh and looks like it cant keep up with the song, Highs can be sharp
