Back to the original post . . .   I do believe that comparing material cost to retail cost is a good starting point, but at least in my mind, this breaks down in three ways, all very applicable to audio.  The first is...

Thanks for the replies.  Haonan's and mvw2's responses are pulling me in completely opposite directions, but more information is always a good thing.  The CK10 sounds like it is more my style, also because I noticed that the...

I am trying to find a good IEM to replace my incredibly old Sennheiser CX300.  Tonight is the first night I've done any serious research on IEMs, but I've spent a couple hours looking over the forum and chasing links across the...

Wow, I never knew that feature existed, thanks for pointing it out. Odd you think the Denon's isolate worse though. The graphs indicate they provide 10dB greater isolation compared to the AKG's in the range of human voices (and 10...

Just searched this entire thread for the word Denon . . . and found nothing! Can anyone compare these with the D2000's in terms of isolation/sound/comfort?
