Instruccions de funcionament
The AKG K701 headphones are passive and do not require power. Operation is straightforward:
- Wear the Headphones: Place the headphones on your head so that the earcups fully enclose your ears. The "L" (Left) and "R" (Right) indicators are located on the inside of the headband near the earcup attachment points. Ensure correct orientation for optimal stereo imaging.
- Ajustar el volum: Control the listening volume directly from your connected audio source (e.g., amplifier, computer, music player). Start with a low volume and gradually increase it to a comfortable listening level.
- Disseny d'esquena oberta: The K701 features an open-back design, which provides a wide soundstage and natural sound reproduction. Be aware that this design allows sound to leak out and ambient sound to enter, making them ideal for quiet listening environments rather than noisy public spaces.

Proper care will help maintain the performance and appearance of your headphones:
- Neteja: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to wipe the surfaces of the headphones. For the ear pads, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure they are completely dry before use. Do not use cleaning sprays directly on the headphones.
- Emmagatzematge: When not in use, store the headphones in a clean, dry place, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. If a headphone stand was included, utilize it for proper storage to prevent cable damage and maintain shape.
