AKG K 701 Headphones:
Mouth watering! The AKG K 701s are significantly more transparent sounding than any other headphone that I’ve tried, and they embody an amazing level of taste when it comes to modern headphone design. Obviously each of the major brands; Sennheiser, AKG, Beyerdynamic, Grado, and Ultrasone, all have their own “sound”, which in some way makes one want to own one of each. I do.
There are major differences between the Sennheiser HD650s (which I own) and the K 701s (which I just bought for $450), making each one better for a specific genre of music. The rock/alternative/metal crowd are unanimous in their preference of the Sennheiser ‘phones, no doubt influenced by their rich, extended bass response, while others are more taken by the AKG’s smoother tonal balance, and crystal clear midrange. What ever your taste these are worth a listen.
They are a five-star performer and worth a try for sure. by dd

my favorite _____ is:
–book: dune. i could pretend otherwise and pick something more highbrow, but i’m a sci-fi nerd and i’ve always been a sci-fi nerd and dune is the best of the sci-fi books i grew up with.
–album: closer by joy division. this was my favorite record when i was 16 years old, and now i’m 42 and it’s still my favorite record.
–city: los angeles. when i tell people that los angeles is my favorite city they usually pause and wait for me to explain that i’m kidding. but i’m not kidding. i know why people might not like l.a, but for me it’s the most interesting city on the planet.
–film: inland empire by david lynch. i think i saw it 3 or 4 times when it was in theaters. it’s one of the most remarkable movies ever made.
–restaurant (what city): franchia, nyc. franchia is a strange, vegan korean restaurant in midtown in nyc. it’s a terrible location for a vegan restaurant, and as a result it’s almost always empty. but the food is really good and i love empty restaurants.
–hero: david lynch. i heard him speak recently about creativity and it reminded me that creativity is not a means to an end. too often our criteria for judging creative output is its commercial viability, but creativity in and of itself is pretty remarkable, regardless of whether it can be sold to a lot of people.
My favorite _____ is:
–book: the conformist-alberto moravia
-album: steven brown & blaine reininger, one hundred years of music

-prized possession: a beautifully crafted mohogany and sandstone box by karl springer with galucha (stingray skin) lined interior… useless but lovely!
-city: no one particular city really
-drink: madeira, lagavulin
-smell: serge lutens’ chêne fragrance, and le labo’s oud27 fragrance
-film: memorias del subdesarrollo
(memories of underdevelopment) by tomás gutiérrez alea. (IMDB)
-restaurant: omen (japanese) in new york, versaille (cuban) in LA
-hero: now that’s rather childish!
-way to go:I’m a bit of a coward, so in my sleep i suppose.
He’s a french-y and a lovely designer, great work but especially the typography and lettering definitely check him out, he’s gonna make you a better designer or feel kinda shitty about your own work at least, check out Merci Bernard. by pp
