I replaced the pads on my AKG Q701 headphones today for the 4th time. It made me realize that I’ve used these headphones for at least 40 hours a week for 14 years straight. I’ve had to repair the left side speaker solder joint a few times, but they’re designed to be easily torn down and repaired. Truly BIFL headphones.

I’ve heard that the newer AKG K702 headphones are identical but I can’t vouch for that. They go for around $250.

      Feel good about whatever you want :) I just always thought it was odd to kinda boast about when you find a certain type of art or whatever, but only after someone pointed it out. I’ve been guilty of the same thing many times, was just poking fun, not trying to be harmful, just playful I suppose
