I was able to find the lost rhythmdevils unboxing video, you can see it here:

They are two dollars.  They are pretty loud.

I'd actually go to his dad's store and demo those if it wasn't so far west of here.

Better than AKG K701: yes.

Better than AKG K702: no.

Better than AKG Q701: yes.

Slightly OT, but did you find the K702 to be substantially different sounding from the K701 (I know the Q701 is supposed to be bassier)?

OT: This thread is lulz, in the best possible way.

i tried these yesterday at my local wet market and i preferred the sound of the free drivers that came with the parts express headband. its soundstage is so awesome that it sounds like youre listening outside the concert hall.

@DaveBSC:

I realise, just wondering if the particular headphone sub-model naming was part of it :P

These are pure genius! How do they make them for $2 when the cable alone costs $3 retail?
Superior value.  :-DD
