So were they?

I had the same problem with a pair of Sennheiser headphones well over 4 years ago. Ended up keeping them but not buying another pair of Sennheiser headphones. Somewhat of the comfort problem and a support problem. I emailed them over a month ago about something never received a reply. Had to...

Amazing though they are not burned in yet. Then connected up to a amp after trying them without. Wow. I am in heaven. I also got a buttkicker to go with my setup and that just takes it to a whole new level. Gaming, movies, and music just are so much more a live. Very nice device if you can't...

Well I know when I bought my Shure 530 PTH a while ago I got them brand new for $320 if I remember correctly. Didn't like them so returned them and now see they are a lot more expensive. Yes I did try them out but it may be because I had no amp ? I don't know I just was not impressed. I was...

I found the Denon D2000 and D5000 not very clear at all.

dakkar and Zanth you all both need to think to yourself. Did I say I was going to abuse the retail store? No. Zanth none of those stores you mention offer free return shipping.

I hated mine and returned them. Maybe it needed a amp ? Though I bought the PTH version. Wasn't to expensive at $320 new but I see now they go for a lot more now.

When burning in headphones is it ok to leave a movie, music or games playing while you are not listening to the headphones so they burn in faster? Like right before you go to bed each night.

Thanks for the offer but to much trouble. Rather just use the online electronic store with free return shipping for 30 days on headphones, speakers, amps, etc.

Wow that is a lot of money but you should of bought them online at the electronic store that offers free return shipping. They even have price matching so they would of honored amazon prices as long as they are a official Denon reseller which amazon is. Yes it is free return shipping for 30 days...

Quote: Originally Posted by Aura You had mentioned an interest in Grado, but also that the Reference Series is outside of your budget. I'd consider getting some SR225's and performing a woody-mod to them later on. In my personal opinion 225's are just as much of a joy to listen to...

Very Bottom

Quote: Originally Posted by headphones How are the HD650 comfort wise? Do they have a grip on the top of your head that starts to hurt after a while? I currently own a pair of HD280 and when I first owned them I hated their death grip on my head. I have a small head though. It hurt...

Denon D2000 for $200 shipping is free.

Ok I just bought the Denon AH-D2000 for $199.99 I just couldn't resist. Everything I read about them sound heavenly and they are closed. Wow.
