@Will - Do you have a rough idea when these will 'drop' ?   I'm going to guess that it will be much closer to the day after Thanksgiving?   :-D

We're looking at next week : )

By the way, these dont look way off from Ultrabikes k702 measurements. maybe akg has just changed all the k7 and q7 cans to sound very similar to each other

Here's to hoping they're not identical to the K702 65th AE I owned for a bit. But, even then, $200 wouldn't be a bad deal at all from what I remember (I think I paid roughly that?). Even if not as technically competent in all regards, I still preferred the HD598 over the K702 AE. K702 just did some annoying things to my ears, but YMMV since I'm picky and weird. Really looking forward to hearing this particular K7XX iteration!
