In an ideal world you wouldn’t keep them at full charge when not in use. Lithium doesent like to be stored at full charge

Absolutely, and commenting that one doesn’t enjoy the constant flow of similar posts should also be fine, suggesting it’s a “personal attack” takes a large leap of the imagination, when it’s no more insulting than this image.

I owned a 712 for about a year, they didn’t get a lot of use, comfort and soundstage are good and I’m a sucker for orange, everything else is uneventful, it’s not bad by any means, but not a set that grabbed me

Not at all, I buy and sell probably 30 pairs a year and just keep the highlights, even those get sold later on, for the last 5 years I’ve only bought 4 pairs of wireless

That sounds like an awesome storage and transport solution, I can truly imagine being overawed with the storage and transport solution described above
Awesome
adjective adjective: awesome extremely impressive or daunting; inspiring awe. "the awesome power of the atomic bomb" or felt bag

Reply to Please share some high quality music that will demonstrate the actual quality of my AKG K712s. by UrNemisis
I no longer recommend Tidal due to the MQA issues, despite all the lies and cover ups about its definition as lossless it’s still really bad for the music industry, I stream on Qobuz or Apple Music and use bandcamp for discovery and I’m slowly building a library of albums I purchase directly from bandcamp in FLAC, (if we don’t support the artists outside of the streaming services music will just become entirely owned by Apple or Amazon eventually)
You need to find a genre or two that you’re into and explore from there, all genres have really well recorded and mastered tracks that can be considered “Audiophile” the K712 excel at soundstage if you’re looking to wow your friends and family find some songs with great soundstage, but, as mentioned before, don’t worry about justifying your purchase, the entire point of headphones is only one person enjoys them!!!
Also don’t get too hung up on listening to your gear and forget to enjoy the music. If you focus entirely on the gear it’s an endless chain of upgrades and side grades, listen to your gear for a long time before deciding what you like and what you’re missing (if anything) before auditioning new kit. Listening to and enjoying music is a fairly cheap hobby once you have a nice set of cans like yours and some music (lots of fantastic free FLAC on bandcamp and some albums cost pennies, look up “Macroblank” and “Haircuts for Men” if you like downtempo/ ambient, I bought both the discography for less than $10 but you can choose what you pay)

Didn’t sweat at anyone but I’m not complaining, it’s ok, everyone likes to feel a bit of power from time to time
