AKG K702
Beats Solo Pro
The AKG K702 are better for neutral sound than the Beats Solo Pro. The AKG are much more comfortable over-ear headphones. Thanks to their open-back design, their passive soundstage is perceived as much more open and spacious. On the other hand, the Beats are more versatile Bluetooth-only headphones. They have a much better build quality and an ANC feature that does a great job of blocking out ambient sound. They're also more stable, so they're less likely to slide off your head during light physical activity like a walk.
