Sennheiser PX200-II Review (vs RX700)
Quote: Thanks for guiding me ;-) I read between the lines, that there is not *a lot* to gain upgrading.... Regarding your condition, what do you hear as their weaker spots? I am curious, because I hear them as very neutral, yet not boring/dull. I really appreciate your...- love2listen

Sennheiser PX200-II Review (vs RX700)
I just bought the Sennheiser PX200-II, and I am AMAZED! From their size and price I think they are incredible, better than my more expensive bass heavy, colored Denons 1001. Hard to believe, but yes they are ;-) Now I just wonder if there is a lot to gain if I step up in the Senn...- love2listen

Are Denon AH-D1001 Bass heavy/Colored?
Quote: Originally Posted by K_19 It's definitely coloured, but I do also feel that the fact is usually overstated around these parts.

Are Denon AH-D1001 Bass heavy/Colored?
I just received a pair of Denon AH-D1001, and find them very bass heavy (iPod and 2move amp). Is it me that needs some getting used to, or are the phones known for this? Apart from the heavy bass I quite like them. Is there a mod to tame the bass, or would you rather suggest another...- love2listen

Sound of Yuin in full size cans?
Hello, I am very impressed with the sound of my new Yuin OK2 coupled with Meyer 2move amp and iPod nano 3rd gen. (Without amping, they are too thin and lacking bass, so to me they are a no go without amping, but even the little free Fiio amp makes up for this!). Could you pls. recommend...- love2listen

Upgrade from iPod Nano 3rd. generation?

Upgrade from iPod Nano 3rd. generation?
I enjoy the above player normally coupled with a Meier 2Move amp and a pair of Sleek Audio SA6's or Yuin OK2 headphones when on the move. Ultrasone Proline 650 when home.

Hi/Lo current affecting SQ? (2move amp)
Can you describe how/if you can hear a sound quality difference, when switching between High current and Low current? What should I pay attention to see if I can hear a difference, thanks. I guess this varies from HP to HP as well... On a nother subtle SQ difference note: In the beginning...- love2listen

Ultrasone PRO 750 vs. Denon AH D2000
Bump, as I would like to know too. I have the Proline 650 (should be very similar to the 750), and would like to know if the Denons are an upgrade to them or more just a different sound... Anyway the Ultrasones requires *heavy* burn-in; my pair is approaching 200 hrs, and they sound a lot...- love2listen
