Audio-Technica AD700 Headphones Review

Many people underestimate the differences between open and closed headphones, the combination of the two models in a series as a sound similar. Audio-Technica has an open or closed variant of each model (the A900 and AD900), and they have a trademark sound throughout the range, often other elements do not seem more different.

Take, for example, the AD700. Many people simply look at the model and slot somewhere between the A500 and the A900 in terms of sound quality - big mistake! The AD700 is much lighter sound that really gives you a completely different sound signature.

We would like to describe as the classic AD700 headphones in this price class, but also wonderful for jazz, acoustic guitar and piano pieces. This is an open model, meaning that small, tends to be the most prosperous and powerful (in a closed model, there is no place for ECHO) to heavy metal and dance floors, fans will most likely lose strength. That is, the bass is incredibly fast and strong for this model - a case of quality over quantity - so it really depends on how you like the music sounds.

The top half and high tones are the real strengths of this model. The AD700 is one of the finest detail and the separation without spending hundreds of dollars more. Acts of the flow from one to another with a nice layer effect brings the sound of a great power (for example, orchestra). Some authors are too bright for their taste, but loved the sound.

The midrange is rich and a little hot with a nice, soft texture. Our acoustic guitar rock songs such as Patience by Guns and Roses sounded simply incredible.

The other real strength of this model is sound. To put it simply, we have not heard what as immersive as the AD700. The power and the position of the various instruments of the mind is incredible, better than almost anything we have seen in this price class (including the A900). Sound is a prerequisite for a proper listening experience. If you close your eyes and see the sound in a particular place is a long way towards the creation of the tingling spine, when we strive to listen to your favorite songs. The massive sound is also perfect for the position of audio. We found that in terms of strengthening the capitalization is not much better for games, AD700s.

The Audio-Technica AD700 Sport Classic design that has so well with this series. Large arteries and upholstered with velvet, with two wings, the filling in the rest of the top of the head. Which covers an area of two strips of plastic, quite fragile, but I'm strongly. All Audio-Technica headphones are very comfortable, and this model is no exception. How to open headphones, the cups of the AD700 only against the rest of the ear, instead, making it easier to hear, even during meetings of up to six hours. They are quite large, the streets around them wins rare look confused.

Planning for the inevitable problem of leakage of sound. The AD700s not isolate, but it is predictable. If you plan to use them in an office to invest in some earplugs for the people in your environment.
