Which size is better for AKG 701/702/712, the XL or the XXL?

I have the xl for my Q701s and its a bit snugg but they fit I would try the xxl however is you want a tight fit "so tight you can see a small outline of the widest part of your headphones" the xl works fine. It protects well and there is room for the balanced cables to my headphones in the center.

I have the AKG K701 and Q701's. The Q701's fit due to the detachable cable, the K701's with the fixed cable don't do so well with the XL size CASEBUDI. If there is an XXL size by all means get that one. My Q701's are a real struggle to zip up with the XL size.

These are an updated model. The outside material has been changed but the hardware remains the same. It still uses the same earphone driver but it is now angled. The angle produces more of a treble heavy experience. The fit is different. The 700 is a bit heavier and fits more comfortably whereas thr 700x slips and digs into your head constantly. You have to mod them to be comfortable. The old ones sound richer due to the different front facing material but the newer ones produce higher range (artificially). Either way, these are great positional audio cans with a decent amp. I use Sound Blaster Z (has a standalone amp). Personally I use mdr-v6 cans with custom fittings. These are an updated model.

Seeing the size I think the XL will be great for your headset, Check the measures of the M case perhaps better

I can only speak to my personal experience. my k701s are older I would say at least five years old. Not very worn though. they look brand new so they haven't had rough life. my q701s are the ones assembled in China. they both have the signature akg sound but they are distinctly different. all I had to do was play some zedd and with the q701 not only could you hear the texture of the electronic bass it had body and oomph. just enough. the k701 had no lower extension at all. the q701 sound more musical and fuller without that hardness of the k701. Sometimes I feel the k701 has a better Soundstage but that just might be a difference of hours used. My amp is a little portable amp but I think both would sound world's better with a really nice tube amp. but in answer to your query in my case yes they sound very different. In fact I was shocked how different. But remember my k701s are of a very different vintage.

I just got the K701, no idea about k702. I hear someone told me before, K702 sounds bright, and a little bit higher resolution.K701 is also pretty good handphone, I like it a lot, I use it for classical music.

Although I have heard the 7506 a few times, from what I heard the 7506 is much brighter that the V6. The V6 to some May sound a bit rolled off, but I think the highs are very detailed and accentuated just above acceptable levels for me. I also have a pair of AKG k702 and I prefer the V6 for female Jazz vocals like Dinah Washington and Billie Holiday. But these are my impressions, so you would need to listen to the cans yourself. Buy both and return one that you don't like.

I got one extra pair which were much larger than the original. The larger ones help the music sound louder, and block a little more of the ambient sound. I also think the larger ones are more comfortable.

The best have the silicone outside and a memory foam inside next to the nub where the ear buds are they are made for Sonys my Paltry EX083 (came with my 16 GB Sonys 2 years back I have several mp3 brands these were best I heard from one from manufacture ,tried 3 kinds the 700s tout the silicon with I can only call it memory foam . If you get nervous get the Veritas Memory Foam Tips (same as Comply ,half price both excellent call either Company they will help you I love the Sonys with the layers

I'm pretty comfortable saying the large and XL will, but if you want to make certain contact Eric at Revelate Designs. He is extremely helpful. I love every bit of gear I've gotten from them.

Definitely get the XXL. I just got my XL delivered today and it fits perfectly on my 650 cruiser, a much smaller bike than your husbands.

I would think so, my AKG K712 pro's fit fine with room to spare. Even in yhier bag they fit fine.

I unfortunately can't answer your question, but I would like to know if you ended up buying these (or the XL version), as I just bought the Fidelio X1 myself...

The case has a bit of give in it from its zipper (which is good) but it could be a bit larger. My AKG K550's barely fit.

Most likely a standard size since I use the cord that goes into the headphone jack to connect to my iPod.

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.
