Reply to comment by justaalawstudent in K702s with L30II and E30II - is it supposed to sound this harsh? by justaalawstudent

Use them straight out of your PC, I know some people will say that's not enough power to drive them, but just do it. I have AKG Q701 which are pretty similar headphones, and they are the best headphones I have tried, the Sundaras have come close but nothing can beat the sound quality of them. Try using them straight out of your PC with no EQ and then adjust the EQ and see if they are still as unpleasant.

I solved the problem by using a different measurement to EQ the K702. It's awesome now and I'll keep using the combo as is. Using it from the PC without an amp was the first thing I did and it honestly just sounds plain bad. Quiet, sterile, thin as hell. The amp gives it life.
