denon d2k - bleargh! (-1) that's all I have to say

First time I ever heard Grado = Bassy (in any way), and D2000 "bleargh". As confucius once say, man who live in closet should stay in closet.

This is always relative to some kind of preference, isen´t it?

Oh, sorry, I didn't know! In that case your most certainly right 

Phew, how I do love *to avoid* a nice confrontation. If I dare, I would still recommend that the TS audition the D2000, cause I really do believe they do suite his requirements. I just got the Focal Spirit One today as well, and they are also a very decent performer that is worth a listening. Nice tight bass, maybe not just as low as the D2000, and clear in the top. If isolation is important for you the Focal is way better than Denon btw. A keeper for me.
*UPDATE*
Finally I bought DENON AH-D600, thanks for everyone.
