about the high frequencies, I did a sweep test and found that 7.5khz tends to peak about 3dB. Use an EQ to decrease this region by 3dB and you should be good

 One of my friend who are doing A/B/C testing come to same conclusion, he added that he think higher frequency of Denon is a little more fatigues, like the higher frequency is peak-ing, in comparison to GM.

What's a good way to EQ? Built in Denon app? Or any other app? For android, laptop, or ipod?

I have a question. What is your favourite case for Denon AH MM400? i tried Brainwavz and it completely felt apart in a month. I bought Sentey case for foldable phones but it barely offers protection and is too snug. Have you tried GOcase type c or Slappa? Thanks.

This is what I use. I don't use it for travel more than few times a year, but its holding just fine. http://m.ebay.com/itm/Replacement-Case-Pouch-for-Monster-Beats-Wireless-Studio-Solo-HD-Headphones-/222008296732?hash=item33b0b9c51c%3Ag%3A5IcAAOSwECZUnGnF&_trkparms=pageci%253A2e808b4d-5123-11e6-841e-74dbd1a08b97%257Cparentrq%253A19d545f91560a78702211f85fffeab51%257Ciid%253A21

I'm using UDG (Ultimate DJ Gear) hard cover case. It's rugged tough material.

 

[jpvanirsel]

These or the momentums?

 

[yavormoskov]

Of course Denon. It is in a very different league. As a matter of fact there are a cheaper headphones such as MSR7 that sound better than Momentums.

Well, just in case if anyone's looking for a pair in pretty much mint condition, I'm selling a pair at 200 USD + 4% for PayPal fees with free shipping. 
 
I don't find myself using these that often even though they do sound great. In all, these have been used for less than 5 hours and in the house. No smoke and no pets.
 
I am only shipping to and from the United States.

Great price! Too bad you won't ship to Canada. Then again, I really don't need to spend more money on headphones lol!

  I have an audiophile shop down on my street and I auditioned Audioquest Nighthawk for about 8 hours using their own amps. Very revealing and transparent and feather light on your head but it was very cold and sterile. It reminded me a lot to the higher end models of Beyerdynamic. Not my cup of coffee. By my opinion it requires serious amp and DAC with good EQ to sound its best.

 
Wow, that's the first time I've ever heard the nighthawk's described that way! My experience (and most people's if you read the NH thread) is quite the opposite.

I was wearing my Denons and the headphone headband snapped all the sudden from the pressure on my head I suppose.  I sent them back and received my money back.  Luckily, for me, it happened when I could get my money back still.  I think I am going to remove my review of these headphones as I don't think I will be buying from this company again, it could just be a defective product.  I ordered some Ultrasone Performance 880's and am quite pleased with them overall.

I sent my AH-MM400 back, twice.
 
The second set is new as they do a 1-to-1 exchange for defective headphones from the service centre.
 
Both had issues with the left side having this noisy "tapping" every time in low freq like bass notes.
 
The first one was so bad, I brought it back to the shop, had them tested.
 
The staff said imbalance channel and left side had distortion.
 
Second time, it occurred recently and its just that particular noise.

 

[ekolite]

My head is on the smaller side, actually.  I couldn't believe it when it happened.

Shame that you two (above) had a bad experience with these. Had mine for a month or so now and they've been fine slung in a bag on my commute - even surviving a motorcycle crash! I'll give you that the headband would be my choice of the weakest link if I was pressed to choose one, but on the whole Denon are generally known to have decent build quality.
