For what it's worth, we are going to be carrying Denon shortly. We have the line in-house now for evaluation, and we're quite impressed with their stuff.

There are also models on the site that's missing frequency charts--like the Sennheiser wireless models for example.

Good points. We are just now in the middle of revamping our measurements. Sadly, our Audio Precision tester just broke and we're going to have to delay a bit to get it fixed and then continue measuring. Suffice it to say, I too am very interested in continuing and improving our measurement program, and we will be re-measuring all the headphones and the re-doing our measurement tool on-line.

As miniduncan rightly points out, we have to be a bit careful about dissing cans. On the one hand, we simple can't say a certain headphone is junk when there are some people out there might have tastes that will be satisfied by that product, and on the other hand our vendors might get a little uncontrollably pissy (read lawsuit or getting cut off) if we diss something too hard. Slowly we're coming to grips with this issue by just not carrying things we don't like.
