Wow those square earmuffs look intense. Did you ever have a pair? They seem to have a decent following from folks who loved them.

They are fantastic. Very impressive and uncomparable sound stage (because they are ear speakers. But they are old, uncomfortable, very easy to break and very few people can repair them.

You'd better with MySphere 3.2 IF you can afford it.

I never owned a pair, but I didn’t get to Demo them until around 2015, at which point, I had already owned an AKG K701, an AKG/MassDrop K7XX triple black first edition, and an Austrian-made, early-run AKG K812 Pro.

They’re pretty impressive, but I had already been using the K812 Pro for a while, and the K1000 is not as impressive as the K812Pro.
