AKG K7XX - ranked #340 of 417 Over-Ear Headphones · Editor's rating 2.8/5

#340 AKG K7XX Discontinued eBay

Pros: Lower mids sit within about 0.5 dB of target, keeping voices and guitars natural.

Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. Sub-bass is 3 dB short at 30 Hz, so deep bass lacks rumble. Treble sits about 3.5 dB low, so it sounds a little dark. A Harman score of 54 places it in the lower part of the over-ear rankings.
