[QUOTE="Steerpike, post: 579965, member: 807"] From the mouth (keyboard?) of one of the principal designers at AKG: "[i]There was absolute no cost limits for the development of the K1000. This was the first time for AKG to go this approach. The reason was, that we three developers (Helmut, Ewald, and me, Heinz) started the project "under the floor" (meaning without order). Later the official development order came after first listening tests to first K1000 prototypes.[/i]" This is why I like 'old' AKGs. (Not so keen on what Harmann have done with the brand.) I doubt Doctor Drek ever threw financial constraints to the four winds. People like the above 3 should be regarded as 'artists' and revered in much the same way that we idolise performers and musical instrument manufacturers. [/QUOTE]
