MUST SAY MADE IN AUSTRIA ON THE EARPIECE  !!!

BE AWARE OF VENDORS who show a stock photo of Austrian marked headphones while actually selling the box of Asian made headphones. If the Austrian made original that Quincy Jones endorsed is not important to you, buy the cheaper ones. We deliberately showed the Austrian marking in our second photo.

Since these are brand new Austrian made AKG Q-701 reference headphones  (not the Asian imported models) these are probably the best affordable headphones on the market right now, and they even come with the Oxygen Free green plug in cable which enhance fidelity, sound staging/separation, and headroom.  This particular pair has two of the lime green matching cables rather than the typical one high end cable. This lime green is a super cool color but the matching green cable is for more than just good looks. It compliments the performance of the headphones with a bit of extra "air" in the sound as well as the improved headroom. The sound stage is wide, and the clarity is near neutral. The higher end cables improve image separation between the music images and a better "edge" on those sources. Detail is enhanced with a more musical quality creating less listening fatigue. 918-230-7427 for questions.

 When you look at the picture of Quincy Jones on the box, the image of him looking downwards is the true Austrian made model. If he is looking upwards or is wearing glasses in the photo, those are Asian built. Remember, AKG is an Austrian company.
