Im amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

Actually, when buying, I took home the top senshi 650 paired with LakonikBoxPro-6 for wiretapping, the seller offered to take also the AKG-701, since finances allowed, and he did so. The first day I listened exclusively to senhi for about 3 hours, without stopping - the impressions are positive, although the sound was not quite for me. On the second day, I put AKGeshki on my head and immediately noticed that they sit much more comfortably, you can literally run around inside your ears. What was my surprise when I woke up well after midnight after many hours of musical marathon. Briefly returned to the promoted brand, after which the 650s safely returned to the store to look for their owner. Advertising and reviews are, of course, good, but I'm used to making the choice myself, which I wish everyone, good luck!

Pros

1. Beautiful scene and volume, as far as it is possible in headphones! 2. Good tonal balance. 3. Excellent detail. 4. They sit comfortably on the head, the ears are quite comfortable. 5. Absolutely no fatigue after 4-6 hours of listening. 6. No genre preferences - play any music freely and easily. 7. Golden ratio price = quality.

Cons

Bass is a bit lacking, but not critical, the listed advantages more than make up for this. People with less lush hair on their heads, like mine, will probably feel some pressure on the top of their head after listening for a long time. STAX SRS-4040 II still sound better, although not by much. :)
