I actually got mine from BestBuy. Might want to talk to someone about ordering it and picking it up in-store.

How does the DAC on the Titanium HD compare to something like the FiiO E7 (WM8740)?

I've had my E9 since last Friday (yay Miccastore!) and it sounds great with my DT880/600s, K702s and LA2000s. My only complaints against it are the lack of color on dial (I did ghetto mod it, but still lol) and lack of cover for the docking port up top. I understand that it's meant to be used...

Quote: There's a thread for that already!

Quote: Would love to hear your expanded thoughts on the A100s.  I've got no use for portable cans that cost $500, but I was interested in them for home listening as an alternative to the D5000/7000.  I know it's only been a day or two, but has your opinion on their sound changed at all?

Quote: Hope UPS found their way to your home today!  Anxiously awaiting your impressions.

I figured as much for the cups, was more interested in knowing about the headband.  

What's the build quality like?  Is it mostly made of plastic?    

Quote: Lucky guy!  My CC hasn't even been charged yet.  Post some impressions as soon as you get them!

Quote: Get the card and do a proper review for us, ROBSCIX.     Does the PCIe bus actually provide enough power to supply an amp?  It didn't look like the Titanium HD had an external power plug on it.

The HardOCP review is claiming it's got a proper amp built-in.  ROBSCIX was checking on that in a Guru3D thread but never replied back with a definitive answer.   If you really wanted an STX I would trade you 1-1 for your T-HD.  I miss my Creative based Forte in games.

Great review!  I spent a lot of time deciding between the D2000 and D5000 before ultimately settling on the D2000, and this write-up certainly would have helped me make that decision sooner.   Having read your impressions of the D1100, however, I am a little worried about my A100 pre-order. ...

Quote:   Beast!  I ordered the D5000s (thanks again for the J&R tip ) and the A100s, but I am definitely looking forward to reading your all inclusive comparison with the 1100/2000s!  

In case anyone was curious, I got an email back from Amazon stating that they'd refund 85% of the purchase price on used headphones within 30 days of purchase.

Quote: Haha, sorry for bringing it back from the dead but it was the first return when Google'ing "return headphones to Amazon".  Was hoping for info more relevant than the original posts from '07, and the two of you have provided exactly that.  Thank you very much!   I'll send them an...

Bumping this because I'm curious about how much of a restocking/return fee Amazon charges.  I'm looking to send back my Denon D2000s, but the Amazon return feature doesn't tell you how much of a return credit to expect.  If Amazon is going to dock me like 25% of retail price because I wore the...

So were these portable cans?  They look like they fold up and such which I'm curious about.  How were they comfort wise in comparison to the D5000?

I've done a bunch of reading this afternoon and I am at a total loss now.   I did, however, learn that there are 3 different types of every Beyer headphone!   Are there any open cans that sounds similar to the D2000s, or is the sound that I am enjoying so much the Denon "house sound"?  I'd...

Quote: Into an STX at the moment.  I'm not against purchasing a desktop amp, but it will definitely be after I get comfortable with whatever headphones I buy next.   Quote: I've played with the EQ, but they just don't get low like the D2000s do.  Other than that, they are an...

Bump for my new question!

I'm running the Asus betas on my STX and 10.8a's on my 5850 and I haven't had a BSOD yet.  I didn't have any issues with my Creative based cards either, until they died hardware wise.   Edit:  Guess I should note that I'm using Win7 64, have 8GB of RAM, as well as the fact that I use HiFi...

I've had my D2000s for about 3 days now and I'm absolutely loving the sound.  It's so strange having listened to my AD700s for almost a year now and then going to these D2000s which actually have a thump to them.   My only complaint is the cord.  The rubbery cord on my AD700 was much more...

Quote: Dark gray / black.  Unless I'm color blind, they're definitely not blue.

Quote:   Just wanted to reiterate what amp2xpand said; I ordered my D2000s from Amazon on Friday, and when I ripped the box open this morning they were the "original" styling, not the D1001 styling.  

Quote: Man, I need those D1100 impressions bad.  I'm looking at my Amazon cart with some $209 D2000s in them.  Can't... make... decision!
