    Denon AH-MM400

    Thanks for the response! I've taken my D2000s off amazon and will keep them for a time down the road when I can get a good Schiit amp or something and listen to them as the should be heard. This will also prevent me from inevitably wanting to buy even more expensive cans haha!

    Denon AH-MM400

    Anyone here have direct experience comparing these to the ah-d2000s, or can point me to a direct comparison? I love my ah-d2000s but I don't use them much at all, so I've listed them on amazon. I'm curious whether the ah-mm400s will give me the same sound if I want to get over-ears again in the...

    DAC and Amp for Denon D2000

    Been reading about the Audio-gd NFB-12, seems to get quite a bit of praise. Also looks like it has quite a few options and is about the same price point as the Yulong U100. Comments on these and how they would compare to the Total Bithead or lower priced DAC/Amp combos?

    DAC and Amp for Denon D2000

    So FiiO E10 or Total Bithead? These will certainly not break the bank, and I have heard good things about the Total Bithead. My question is, will either have enough power to drive the D2000s? Some people say they're easy to drive, but many more seem to say they're relatively hard to drive for...

    DAC and Amp for Denon D2000

    I took some time recently to pick out my next set of cans and decided on the Denon D2ks. I'm mainly into high-end home audio, so I don't get pulled into the head-fi end of audiophile grade equipment very much and I spend enough on home audio to not want to put too much money into headphones and...

    ++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum

    Quote: Too bass-heavy is a bit relative. Would they produce so much low end that the low-mid section gets drowned out? Or would they just have more low end than most people are used to? I've found that open cans are great in the mid-high and high ranges, but the low end gets lost in the...

    ++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum

    Quote:   I have heard that the bass on the Grados is thin, so those are out. How about the Denon AH-D2000s? I've heard that they're better for pop/hip hop/more beat style music since they're closed and have a heavier bass end, and I listen to metal/death metal/black...

    ++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum

    First post, I'll just get right to the point:   I'm interested in getting some over ear audiophile grade (I don't use the term to mean $$$$, I just mean very accurate) headphones for listening at home where there isn't too much noise.  I'm going to get a PA2V2 amp soon, so that's what I'll...
