A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

AKG K702, $600 Canadian. Too bad. π€·ββοΈ
You can order them from thomann but you'd have to pay for international shipping. Probably still cheaper though.

There's also the k712 if you like more bass:

As a Canadian, I can say with certainty: check eBay, theyβre usually listed for a lot less.
Damn. Maybe snag a used set on Ebay?
They used to be quite cheap. It's crazy to see them priced that high.
I left consumer gamer headset world when the new steel series replacement wanted to use software to do what hardware did on a previous gen where no software was required. I got a pair of these for $250 years ago. Absolutely the best move.
