Just got my Denon D5000 headphones. My previous headphones are Sennheiser 595. I am not an audiophile, so these Denons are really my first step up from mid-fi to hi-fi. Some questions:
1. The Denon's earholes (the hole in the interior of the pleather cup) seems to be oval but horizontal. That seems odd. Why is the oval earhole not vertical to match the orientation of the human ear?
2. At the same volume coming from my source, the Sennheiser 595 are clearly louder. Is this what is considered "bright"?
3. The Denon D5000s definitely have more bass, which is what I had read about here. But it is not an overwhelming bass. In fact, when I listen to music on my computer, I turn the bass and treble up a bit on the equaliser (to make a mild "U" shape). These Denons sound fine, yes?
