I wanted to go for the K612, but because of shipping delays I got an HD599 first and after getting the K612 it is clear to me that the HD599 is strong on detail even it its bass is a bit muddy and bloated, at least that was my initial impression.
I am new to this headphone game and as the K612 is the "Pro Reference" I wonder whether it lacks reference level detail or it is just my ears. A few reviews indicate that K702 has a more "fun" kind tuning, perhaps more engaging and a better soundstage but not necessarily superior in detail retrieval.
The K702 is only about £20GBP more than the K612 and if it is not much better then I might as well skip it and stick with the HD599.
Hopefully equalization might fix the HD 599's dubious bass, and K612's long cable makes it awkward for desktop usage..
