What are the "AK-47" of items? (cheap, durable, just works)
What are the "AK-47" of items? (cheap, durable, just works)
This is not a conversation about guns. This is a conversation about items that have withstood abuse that are near unbreakable.
Some items I have heard referenced as AK47 of:
Gerber MP600: It's a multi tool
Old Thinkpad Laptops
Mag lights
Toyota Hilux

3 0 ReplyAKG Q701 headphones also. I've been using the same pair for well over a decade.
0 0 ReplyI love my AKG Q702. I think there are almost identical to the Q701 but with a detachable cable so it can be easily replaced.
I've been using them almost everyday since 2020 and barely show any wear.
The only thing that wore out a bit is the elastic on the side but I don't really notice a difference.
1 0 ReplyI think you must mean the K702? Those are pretty much clones of the Q701.

1 0 ReplyI'm a bit of an audiophile and the Q701s are the best I've listened to. They far out pace anything else under $200 in terms of soundstage and clarity. The bass is a bit low, but this is to be expected from open backs.

1 0 ReplyThe K7 series is similar but not identical. The sound profile changed slightly when manufacturing was moved from Austria to China.
