Hey I have been considering buying both of these headphones (Ultrasone Pro 550 & Denon AH-D2000) after trying them today at the store. They did sound very similar. Unfortunately, they were both new units and have not been burned in. So I have some questions for the Head-fi'ers' who know the...

very helpful review. anyone know how these compare to the denon d2000s?

Hey. I am having some trouble acquiring these headphones in my area. Does anyone know where I can purchase the Denon AH-D2000 in Toronto (Ontario), new and under $250 CAD? (online or in-store) Bloor Bay Radio is the only store in Toronto I know of that has them, but they only have a demo...

thanks guys. t0wer - the d2+ looks great, unfortunately its just out of my budget. may be worth saving up for although. moose - that nuforce is a bit too expensive for me. do you know if the nuforce uDAC is any good? and does anyone know if the headroom total bithead would be a good...

Hey I am looking for a good USB amp for my Denon D2000s. Budget is <$150 I will be using it with my laptop, which has a bad sound card, which is exactly why I need a USB amp (although I still need a line in for my PSP). All my music is 320kbps AAC. Any recommendations will be greatly...

From what I have read, the 840's bass only gets tighter after burn in. An amp could definitely boost the bass, but not without making it sound artificial. I would give the D2000s a shot if I were you.

senn 595 maybe? response is flat but bass isn't lacking, should go well with your music. they should sound great without an amp, but they will benefit from one of course. $180 on amazon i think. EDIT: sorry, i just re-read your post, the 595s are open headphones. for closed headphones you...

thanks guys

bump? i think i could have chose a better title for the thread...

Hey First off, thank you Head-Fi, I wouldn't have been able to get this far in my decision without everyone's expertise. I have been looking for a new pair of headphones for the past few weeks. After a lot of research, I think that the best cans for me are the D2000s. However, if you...

oh and i love your mixes btw :P

Hey Dylan Off topic, I remember replying to your comment on a Shure SE115 unboxing on youtube about a year ago (i was TokyozzFinest), and now I find you on Head-Fi xD Another coincidence, I happen to be from Toronto too (I think my friend knows you, do you go to Mt. Carmel?) And ANOTHER...

i don't know why everyone says that the d2000 needs an amp. i don't have them, but based on the specs it looks pretty easy to drive; its only 25 ohms

alright, thanks for the info! i will go try out the DJs this week hopefully... and if my laptop can drive the srh840 alright then i guess i can make do with those.

*I am almost certain that my question has not been answered in another thread. My apologies if I am wrong.* Salut! I have about $200 to spend on a new pair of headphones. This is what I want... -low impedance (For my portable players [I really don't want to buy a portable amp]) -bassy...
