[REVIEW] 18 IEM reviewed and compared!!! (Final update NOV 2, 08) - Page 15

post #211 of 335
Just curious why the Denon 700/751s or the 551s haven't been included either in the OP reviews or the discussion in this thread. They seem to have generally favorable comments elsewhere here, particularly the 551s for SQ to value at their price point. Is it just an omission? Any thoughts on where they fit in the OP rankings?

After lurking here gathering info, the Denons are on my buying short list, yet their omission here concerns me. Thanks. This place is a great source of info.

Gear mentioned in this thread:

Etymotic Research ER6i Isolator Earphones (White)
Sennheiser CX300-S Earbuds (Silver)
Creative Headphones EP-630

Because Denon ain't as easy to get from where I live. Even if there are local stock, the shop which carry them will overprice them by a big margin. If the price is right, I'll definitely consider them.

All you need do is have one of us Head Fi'ers get them for you.

As mentioned, over in Singapore prob the only places u can find them are either Bluetin.com or Farle. btw, you can audition the denons at SLS. I did audition quite some time ago, if my memory serves me right, I found the bass to be way too much for my liking. It was pretty tight but still overbearing for my taste. YMMV

It is plentiful. I have to notch the EQ down a bit to some semblance of normal bass.

Beside PL-30, I have another review or two scheduled. I don't think I have enough time for another review even if I get the Denon. Most likely I'll pick one up on early 2009, along with the long overdue ER4P, if I have enough money :P

Thanks ClieOS -- Kind of hard to review something you can't get your hands on...

The lack of mention in the entire thread commentary, even if just to note the omission, was conspicuous since they get mentioned with some frequency in recommendation threads at their price points.

Yes, I know. The review has been revised quite some time ago, which is why SA6 is listed two ways in the value ranking.

No, I mean the MSRP has changed from $250 to $209, according to the new Sleek website.

**edit: oops, I missed your revision.
