Actually it's the "sennheiser death grip"
Yep, finding a headphone can be one long quest.
Had the K712 here for a week or so. Their comfort is a lot better than my K701s. The peak at 7kHz wasn't bothering me much. That leads me to my assumption that, regarding the fatigue level, the frequency response isn't as important as I innitially thought. It's the driver-technology. The DT880 has a similar peak, but it's way more harsch sounding IMO.
The K712 had also a darker sound signature than my K701s, because the upper mids are kind of recessed. I still think the K701/702 are the flattest/most linear headphones out there, but they're also very bright. The HD600 are the most natural sounding headphones. The HD650s on the other side are similar to the HD600, but very relaxed sounding, not 100% linear. A good choice if you're allergic to high frequencies. I've heard many people saying that they like the HD600 more than the HD650, also the K712 and the Q701 more than the K701/702.
You see, we could talk day and night about headphones. Go to the shops and bring your glasses!
