Yeah dont get new headphones! just buy a jack, but your wire to the lenght you want and solder the 3 connections!

I guess I didn't make it clear that because I use em at school they have to be closed I have a pair of grado 125's to use at home and I love em to death. EIMS were a thought, but I have rather sensitive ears, and they would have to be in and out quite frequently witch I've heard is a real pain...

Hi all, To start out I'm not completely new to headphones. About a year ago I got a pair of denon 1001's cable modded em and really liked them. My uses are mainly portable cans for school and such, ipod, no amp. The problem with the denons was a year of constant use wore em out. both the cups...

The D1001's have to be the most comfortable of the bunch and best sounding. For that bassy feel rewire with Canare mini quad cable.

Have a pair of denons next to me, very comfy, SQ is great, epically after a recable witch works wonders on the base. Haven't had the M50's though, but with my medium easrs I can tell you they cover the whole ear.

sens HD25 II, not colored at all, don't need an amp, built like tanks, isolate, and usually members will sell with the better 650 cable for around 130 bucks.

Hey guys, I've had my D1001's for less than 10 months and have been using them heavily as portable cans. First the stock cable went. I rewired and they were better than before. Then the new wire went (strange it was mogami) and I soldered it back up. Then the slightly bent jack on the phones...

I needed the same thing, cans for downtime at school, and I went with the d1001's, got em from amazon for 80 then recabled for another 12, and they sound great. Best headphones in my school by far. One thing might be they aren't verry tough. they have plenty of scuffs from being with me 8 hours...

I use denons from a pod straight, and also with standard amp and the difference is not very much. I'd bet that a simple 15 dollar rewire will do you more than an amp on these cans. They get so much better wiht a rewire and some burn in. for a reference my pod can play these loud enough to be...

Just so you know I've used the sony MDRs, and the denons are certainly a step up. Waiting for burn in is a biggie, and also rewiring is simple and makes them even better (especially for the bass) They do not block much sound at all, but I use them every day in bussy hallways and busses and its...

Hey guys, I got my denons rewired, and they are awesome, thanks for the tips. One of my friends wants a pair of over ears and he can only spend 50 bucks or so on them, got any recommendations? All input is welcome, thanks in advance. and while I'm here asking questions, why can't I post in...

Hello everyone, this is my first post here on the headfi forums. I browsed around when I was in the market for some new over ear phones. I decided on the denon ah-d1001's and I was not disappointed. They've been heavily used for the past 2-3 months. I mean like 4 hours a day of listening, a few...
