At the 11/1 Colorado head-fi meet we all liked the D7000, but we all liked my re-cabled D2000 just slightly more. Having added markl woodies and stuffed earpads to my D2000 there is no doubt my D2000 are even farther ahead now, but I would not be unhappy to own those D7000. |

Though I don't know for certain, as a forum admin myself, there's no way that a manufacturer would ask that a thread be removed just because they didn't like what was written in it. Denon don't even sponsor head-fi for one, and two, there is nothing in there that wouldn't be all over Japanese web sites, in gross and in detail soon after they hit the shelves. X2 on stuffing the cups of the D7000 at least. Reminds me that I'm due for re-cabling my MD5000s. |

Hopefully, this is a last gasp, but I guess I am not helping that at all by bringing it up again. It seems most likely some kind of oversight between the marketing dept and the production team or something like that. To me, it is a bit of a minor point and too easily caught to be a blatant case of intentional false-advertising. |
Originally Posted by Bostonears /img/forum/go_quote.gif For me, the difference between pleather and real leather ear pads is not a minor point. One of the things I don't like about the D2000 is the feel of the pad covers against my skin. Real leather breathes. Plastic does not. |
Originally Posted by Gu Sensei /img/forum/go_quote.gif I guess I dont have any problems with the feel of the pleather as the pads themselves are quite comfy to me, but perhaps once summer rolls around... |
Originally Posted by Mecc /img/forum/go_quote.gif I wonder what the street price is for the AH-D7000. A lot of places have "AHD7000" for about $500-600, but all these places are out of stock as far as I can tell. I'm hoping they show up on eBay for $500-600 so I can take advantage of ms cash back. Guess I'm going to be patient. I contacted some of the vendors just to check for availability. The ones without a lot of shady feedback... |
Originally Posted by sweetben /img/forum/go_quote.gif I'm too lazy to stuff the earpads. For now I am going to let the headphones burn in and just enjoy. perhaps in a year or two from now when I get bored I might try moding the 7000's but for now they sound so good to me I will hold off. The Denon 7000's really are the best out of the box experience i've ever had with a pair of headphones. |

Do your Denon headphones have a more full-bodied sound than that? Additionally, how do the Denon's bass signature compare to L3000's? No one has yet compared these two headphones head-to-head, but every review I read about them makes me think they sound similar. Most would simply think the L3000 is superior because of its price and exclusivity, but I would really like to know their specific differences. |
