Have you tried them unamped directly from your iPod? Are they sensitive enough for drive?

Of how good a quality is the cable? Is it flimsy/sticky and has a plastic exterior, like the D2000, or is it tough/smooth and has a Elastomer exterior like the D7000?
Thanks

Quote:It's a Y type OFC cable, definitely not flimsy. But I am not sure the cable is like the D7K because I don't have one.

The iPod Classic can drive it, but need to switch the volume to about 8/10 or 9/10 to have sufficient sound.

Ok, so sensitivity is about the same as the AH-D2000

Quote:Well it sort of depends on the SPLs you're used to. For me half of the EU capped iPod Classic volume is more than sufficient. I could say this because I tried this setting at the show.

Now it's time to plug into the Burson HA 160. Sounds good. But I think the can will give you more pleasantly surprises from a portable amp.

I have a D7000 and it's also made in Mainland China.
Does can you please post a pic of the connector? I wonder if it can be used with my iPhone 4 with the Bumper case on.post #27 of 7511/2/10 at 5:58pmAre you going to give a proper review or just keep on posting one liners?

Fair enough~
I think I'll do a review of sorts after spending more quality time with the A100s (I've just got mine yesterday) but now, another one-liner : man this is what I think the farthest a portable can can take you, if you consider the A100 portable. An undeniably lush and superbly defined sound all across the frequency spectrum, very nice extension at both ends, comfy and lightweight, looks gorgeous, and less eccentric-sounding than the ED8. The only problem is you gotta get a nice pouch for it to prevent scratches on the sweet and shiny mahogany - not including a pouch in the package is a HUGE letdown, considering the much cheaper D1100, which is more or less of the same size and built, has a pouch included!!!!!!Return HomeBack to Forum: Headphones (full-size)- Denon AH-A100 photo album
