sound comparison to k550? I heard k550 is better. Is it true?

I have had both headphones. I did not notice any difference in sound quality. I preferred the K551 for portability. They are both great headphones.

I have not used k550 before. However, in accordance with data from Golden Ears, the response graph of k551 is a bit "better" than k550.

I have both M-L CLS-2Z's and Prodigy's. The voicing on the KEF's and the Prodigy's is very similar given the different technologies involved. The Prodigy's have a more absolute flat response and degree of resolution. The KEF's have better imaging, which is just a matter of physics, and they have a bit of upper end euphonic fluff that makes them seem more present. I love both and I love when someone comes into the listening room and asks which speakers are playing!

I have not compared them, but the A5 from Bowers & Wilkins is the best sounding wireless speaker I have listened to.

Here is a picture of my K712s which have an identical footprint, with a cmoy pocket amp and cables too. Also, nice choice on the K7XX! get a DAC and AMP to pair with it to make them truly shine! http://imgur.com/7oIvhCz

Not knowing your application it's hard to say. For me, I think the K10's are really powerful and a great form factor. I think an awesome solution would be to add a subwoofer. I think they call it the K-Sub. That setup would cover it all!

I've owned both and I'd say the HD650 does everything a little better. They have similar sound signatures, but the 650s are more lush with greater impact. More natural overall tone, too.It's kind of like a BMW M3 vs M5 - they're similar in every way, but the M5 is a little bigger, beefier, badder.

I've worn both of these actually. And I've found the M50X's to be amazingly good for the price. They're extremely comfortable, and they're a good choice overall. Nonetheless, the P5's get the edge. The sound is neutral on both of them, but the P5's sound is a bit more nuanced, and true to the source material. (And if you're looking for something with thumping bass, neither of these are your friend - I'd look at beats for that). The P5's are also much more "luxurious". The padding, the presentation, and the details - everything is a step up, albeit at a heftier price tag. I would definitely recommend trying both out at a store if you can - it's a close one.

I havent listened to k702 or k712 but the Q701 have a very electronic sound signature, best sooted to electronic music or video games

I tried both and took the M50 home with me. Half the price and a much more accurate sound profile. I don't really listen to rap but I do lot of everything else, more comfortable than the AKG K701 I owned previously too.

I have the ATH-PRO700MK2's and the sound quality is amazing. great noise cancellation. great for pre-master mixing and imaging. i would recommend with 5 stars

All the way! The sound quality is totally different....it's excellent (especially when compared vs. intensity). I upgraded them and was the best decision.

They are both 1,000 watts. So the k12 isn't any louder. The only difference is the k12 will play slightly lower frequencies.

the k50 is supposed to be a minor update of the k30, so yes. there will be a "headphone" jack on the lower right of the body (under a rubber cover). there's a setting in the menu to get focus on "half" press and release on full.

Regarding Sound Quality, not much at all. The normal K702s are actually about the same price as the K701s. It's only the "Anniversary Edition" of the K702 that's supposed to be limited, which is why it costs much more. I own and use both K701 and Anniversary K702 regularly, and while they both sound amazing, it's very difficult to tell any difference between their sound. Also the K701's wire is a 3/4" jack that comes with a 1/8" adapter. My anniversary K702's wire is a 1/8" jack (this is the normal headphone jack size) that comes with a 3/4" adapter (for guitar amps/studio jacks/etc.). Not sure what the standard K702 wire comes with but with some more research, someone's bound to know. Also, I'm pretty sure the K702 wires are easily removable if ever need to be replaced, while the K701 wire is not.

Yes. They are different. I purchased both to confirm this for myself. The Q701 is more musical, meaning a little more bass, a little less harshness to the highs. Get the Q701 for everyday use, and the K701 is your primary application is gaming.

Well, that is my personal opinion but definitely I prefer the Klipsch over the soundmagic because they are more comfortable and they block noise better, also, the control buttons in the soundmagic are not as good as in the klipsch, they are so close together that you press the wrong one a lot of times. I have used soundmagic and the bass is stronger but other than that the sound of the Klipsch is more refined and if durability is an issue, go for the rugged ones, they should last for a long time.

The general consensus around various forums seems to be that the the Korg's pads are much more sensitive than the Akai's. I recenty purchased the PK and have no complaints; the pad sensitivity is indeed spot on.
