I need to get another pair of cans, but teh AKG's tehy confuse me.
We have the K240 mk2's
The K240 studios
The K141 mk2's
All occupying a very similar price bracket with almost identical specs.
I just want another set of semi opens to reference bass on. |

| I've got the K240 MkII's and really like them but I'm not exactly trusting myself enough (after one mix with some rather negative reviews) to vouch for them, wholeheartedly. |

Haha
Well I've still got the 271's but they're closed backs and I don't really like mixing on them too much.
From what I can tell, the K240 Studio and K240 Mk2's are virtually identical apart from a few peripherals and some gold stickers. So the question really is what's the difference between the K240s and the K141's |

I think I may just 'fcuk it' and go for the K702's instead.
Or maybe the Sennheiser HD650s
Not gonna get a chance to listen before I buy though. |

| im in the market for a pair to mix on myself, the internet is mixed with a cluster of threads on which cans to choose for the job, specially when it comes on judjing the low end, id take a chance with the akg 701's (cryo said they were good) or those sens.. |

There doesn't seem to be any relevant reviews on the HD650 or K702, just those pointless headfi ones where they just ramble on about listening to jazz on them.
I suspect either will perform the task well. |

| The HD600 are meant to have a more neutral sound than the HD650, from what I read on some headphone forums. |

| Lot of people say the 702 sound is almost to sharp and clean leaving the low end sounding kind of thin, it might better for jazz and orchestra, but I don't know I'm just basing this off what people have said on forums. |
