Really good audio and...
Frederik K 07.07.2020
very nice wear comfort.
The only reason I haven't given these headphones a top rating is that there's a bit "break in" period where the memory foam feels a bit too hard but after that these cans are the most comfortable I've ever had.
Especially for long sessions where even pressure is paramount
Definitely recommendable if you don't have a narrow and small head with small ears, which I din't ;-)
The cups are deep enough that your ears shouldn't touch the inside and the head band flexible enough to give an even pressure atop of ones head. You might want to consider "working" the top leather strap some, since it is made of a thicker quality leather that seem stiff depending on your heads shape. Just flex it real good and the leather will soon feel softer.
A non issue for me
I've read many places that people recommend the use of a pre-amp with these to make them "pop" for real, and that may very well be the case. However I have NO problem driving them of the on-board audio on my motherboard (z390 Aorus Master from Gigabyte). But then I don't own an amp so I'm not sure what I'm missing.

All in all worth a try if your looking for a pair of open back headphones with very good wear comfort. +4 hours is no problem for me - no discomfort and good audio for sure
I rate them 4? stars

Still Great After 3 Years
Rakan 03.05.2023
This is the best headphone I used for gaming. The sound stage is very wide and crystal clear.

Worringly Cheap!
Bazzmatazz 06.10.2022
I like them
feels super good!
worries me they are from 500 euros to 195 euros... gives me a strange feeling in the belly something should be off... something should go wrong, or it'll break after some months... But am satisfied with the product, for now.
My friend tried them and complained, mentioned the typical AKG problem that its too wide, you miss a bit the middle/centre, feeling it strong and safe for your critical mixing.
I think that its a matter of taste... if you understand relativistically with what headphones you are working then you can work well with any headphone. But of course these headphones actually make me want to try the Sennheiser HD 650... couldn't afford the extra 150 euros though.

They were so close to the perfection that they described on the box
Martijn-vdH 16.06.2020
Main use cases: Gaming, listening to multiple genres of music and watching videos

The good:
- Lovely soundstage, although it feels lacking on the middle-rear. Good for placing enemies in games and adds a bit extra to a relaxed listening experience for music/videos.
- Clear, neutral sound, but not in a boring way. I was amazed that I heard so many things I did not hear before in games and music.
- The most comfortable headphones I've ever worn.
- 2 Cables included in the box, a long straight one and a coiled one (see comment in bad)

The bad:
- Materials. For a product of this price I would expect something that feels more "premium", I'm totally not getting this feeling due to it being an all plastic construction, with some plastic feeling very thin. The leather headband is the exception here, although it uses thin elastic bands to stay in place which has me slightly worried.
- The coiled cable, even though it's nice that they included this, feels very cheap.
- Mini-xlr as only input on the headphone? *sigh* Good luck finding good replacement cables.

Good and confortable open headphones
Dario M. 16.05.2020
Good and confortable headphones for mixing and listen music. Some low frequencies are missing, but it's normal for an open headphone. As open design, the sound stage isn't impressive. Confortable: they are really big but lightweight at the same time. Low pressure at the head sides.

Overall Great Reference Headphones
Henry Z 06.02.2021
I use JDS lab Elements Dac&Amp to drive K712, in terms of power requirement it is definitely not hard to drive. Basically, I use these headphones for music and movies. I would say this headphone has decent detail, imaging, and soundstage. However, in terms of tonality, the sound will be toward to neutral side. It is like a glass of water, pure and with no additional flavors. In terms of price, it is worth it. Overall, these are good reference headphones with neutral sound. However, if you are looking for a warmer sound I would recommend other headphones.

Even after more than a year, a great sound quality !
Ridingmyworld 10.01.2018
Powerful and neutral sound in a very sturdy construction.
The only inconvenience is that, on my head, the headphones tend to put pressure on the top of my head. Thus it is becoming unconfortable after a couple of hours with it (which means : take a pause sound geek !)

These are hands down the best, clearest sounding headphones I know and I had quite a few different Beyerdynamic and AKG headphones to compare, even much more expensive ones.
