The verdict

AKG pulls out most of the stops with the K702. It has very pleasant treble reproduction and a studio-style frequency response. While it's light on bass, the K702 still performs admirably for your editing needs. The gentle clamping force and weight distribution mean the K702 can be worn for hours easily.

✓Liked: Lightweight design is comfortable, Removable cable, Mids and highs sound great, Breathable

✕Could be better: Not enough bass, Material choices don't reflect price, You might need a headphone amp
