You already own austrian k701's? Then what's the problem here? If not, just get an austrian one. They show up every now and again on used markets.

The problem is I left it in my hometown and couldn't get it soon.😢

I'm afraid nothing is close to the K701 outside of other AKG models. The K612 Pro is really good, though. The K712 is also really good and I love it but it sounds nothing like the rest of the K7 or K6 line.

>Is there any alternative to AKG 701 with good build quality?

The HD 560S might interest you. Despite feeling somewhat cheap in the hands, they are surprisingly durable, and offer better bass extension than the K701/K702.

What aspects of the K701's sound did you like that the Q701 and K702 couldn't replicate? People will be able to give better recommendations knowing what you are looking for.

>Rule 2: Ask purchase help questions in the Shopping and Setup Help Desk found at https://reddit.com/r/headphones/about/sticky > >Requests for product opinions, comparisons, and general purchase advice must be made in the dedicated Shopping and Setup Help Desk found at /r/headphones/about/sticky instead of a new post.

You may also use r/headphoneadvice but please search their resources and familiarize yourself with their rules first before posting.

What questions are considered purchase advice?

• A request for product suggestions, comparison requests, or opinion requests fall under the purchase advice rule. These can often be found by searching first.

• Any suggestion or comparison request pertaining to headphones, IEMs, DACs, amps, or other accessories should be directed to the purchase help thread or r/headphoneadvice.

• Asking the subreddit to help make a decision to buy a product does fall under this rule (e.g. "should I get dekoni pads for my HD650?").

Why does this rule even exist?

• In short, this is a large subreddit with a high volume. We want to help, but it's important to keep things organized to keep the sub fun. Thanks for your understanding.

• A more detailed explanation about this rule can be found here.

What if the link doesn't work?

• The post can usually be found on the top r/headphones, and titled Shopping, Setup, and Technical Help Desk.

I would say K701 is more airy and prominent in the string vibration of electric guitars or pianos. Extremely satisfied by the guitar solo presented by K701.
