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

      I 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.

        I’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.

          That’s awesome. My brother has the AKG K7XX, I’m guessing they sound similar, because I remember being impressed with these. I assume the QJ are just a different tune, and more padding on the headband.

          I recently ordered the Sennheiser HD 58X, but I was looking at the AKG options too.

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