So my D2000s finally came (freaking UPS), and I'm now doing A/B comparisons between them and the HD650. I'm already familiar with the sound of the K701s, so I won't be doing a A/B/C comparisons, which would be a waste of time. I've listened to a few tracks already, but I want to spend a bit more time before I make any statements on SQ. My plan is just to go through a playlist of some of my favorite reference tracks twice on each headphone just to make sure I'm not imagining any differences.
What I can comment on is their comfort. The D2000s are probably the most comfortable of the three, as they don't have much clamping, but I do slightly feel the headband weighing down on my head; however, it's nowhere as bad as the HD650, and it's about the same as the K701. These are easily the best fit with my glasses as well, as the HD650's clamp makes glasses a bother, and the cups of the K701 don't play along with the stem of my frames as well as the D2000s.
Oh, these things leak sound like crazy. I know many people have already stated it, but these leak probably almost as much as an open headphones. I don't really care, but I was just surprised. I'm also surprised at how much smaller they are in person, but I also though that about my HD650s. I've heard complaints about the cord, it doesn't seem too unruly to me.
I definitely don't have to turn the dial up much on my NuForce HD with the D2000s, which I knew would probably be the case since they require much less power than the other two. I am glad to say that there is no hiss with the D2000s, but I didn't have any hiss with my TripleFi 10s either.
Here's a picture of my headphones and DAC/AMP. No, I normally don't have them sitting on this thing, but I just moved everything next to my bed tonight so I can blast some music since I didn't want to bother my mom (she came to visit and is wondering why I have all these headphones). There's no way I can keep all these because I'd feel to guilty having all these while living on a grad student budget, so I'll keep two at the most (tax return almost makes me feel like keeping them all, but my brain tells me "no").
