Mike K, I have both the 702 and HD650 and they are both worthy. I listen to the K702's more often, pretty much for the reasons explained by the OP.

The Sennheiser's deliver more bass energy no question. The AKG's are more clear and more expansive. Subjectively the AKG's seem more neutral, even though the objective measurement doesn't bear that out. The Senns always seem 'richer'.

When I go from one to the other, there is a mental adjustment I must make as my brain figures out where the music is. Then, that clicks in and I'm a happy camper.
