I keep waiting for a more adult color scheme. I don't care for the all-black... most headphones I own are already black. Then there was a poll for colored ones and red-and-black won!? How popular did that end up really being? They looked like a toy.
Sorry to be salty... just... yeah... I'll keep waiting for a silver-and-brown or wooden-framed or brushed metal set to come along. Man, it's so easy to make something look really great and stand-out. But instead it's black or red-and-black.... RED... and... black...

ice_beatFair enough. I would've even gone for orange and black, I think... maybe. I just think they looked like toys.

FlexGunshipIf you want you could always just grab a pair of AKG K702's for $100 more. They look better with better build quality and are pretty comparable. I think the point of this release was that you sacrifice some looks and a little build quality for a pair of headphones that competes with headphones twice its price.

FlexGunshipI refused to buy the K7XX Red version and the all black version doesn't look that much better but I'd rather settle for it than the terrible black and red color scheme. The reason I hate the Red Edition is because of the terrible color scheme. Why did they make the headband red too? The red headband is ugly, I know the K7XX is the cheaper version of the K7 Annies but come on. At least they could've just colored that inner circle part red and left the headband alone. It would've made much more sense as the K7 Annies only have a blue ring.
They could've taken note of the Green K701 Quincy Jones color scheme and painted all those parts red and I probably would've purchased it. I would've been much happier if they had the K7XX with just the red ring and left the headband black or they could've copied the Quincy Jones color scheme in red.
Every time someone tells me they own the K7XX Red Edition this is what I'm going to imagine them wearing:

If anything at all I will buy the black version and paint it myself.
