I wonder how they compare to the Denon D2000.
Anybody in these regions have D2000 I can try?
You're welcome. But I live in Winschoten, not exactly your region I guess.

No. Train.
It takes longer, but it is more comfortable.

But they are NOT a cake mixer company

I guess if Rio can make underwear then Kenwood can also make headphones.

Kenwood Corporation, Japan make the headphones, and Kenwood Limited, UK make the food mixers.

The best receiver I ever had was a Trio (Kenwood) in the 70s. The Trio hooked up to a Dual turntable, Philips CD player and a pair of Bolivar speakers, kept me happy for a few years.

I'm interested in more opinions on these Kenwood headphones

Not to be confused with the Japanese radio and audio manufacturer, Kenwood Electronics.

In order to avoid more company name, brand and product mix-ups in this thread I hereby appoint Fraseyboy to be our Chef Mixer and to coordinate everything in a professional manner.
I am confident that he will make this a big success.
I suggest he'll start with getting himself a pair of Kenwood KH-K1000 (headphones) in order to learn and appreciate the difference with the mixer.
I expect a full account of his findings within two weeks.

LOL Perhaps the mixer has a headphone output to know when the mix is done for the pulp's sound.

As they are now (still burning in) they are very good for rock. I tried some Allman Brothers, Creedence Clearwater Revival and ACDC.
Metal is not my forte, but ACDC sound extremely well from these phones.
I have to be careful, they really like to be played LOUD.

Yes. We don't want sloppy bass or fluffy highs.

I am flattered to be accepted for the role of Chef Mixer. Be assured that I shall fill this role to the best of my ability and will strive to make the eggs fluffier, the cookies doughier and the cakes more cake-like.

Unfortunately, I may not be able to purchase a KH-K1000 Patented Cake Mixer addon due to the extra funds needed for such an item. This is unfortunate as the KH-K1000 Patented Cake Mixer addon would surely boost my Mixing productivity by at least 36%.

Be assured though, there will be a whole lot more mixing now that I am assigned to the role.

Ah! Dynamic! I like dynamic. Just remember: in a professional manner.
No compression. Airy, but not too airy (I don't want it to be insubstantial), good texture and no added coloring.

Chocolate for me please.

The Chef Mixer is required to remind you that you will be baked, and then there will be cake.
