Could this be right? I see that Amazon.COM has this set of cans for $185 where every other place I look has them at around $300.

I am looking to upgrade to my first pair of real phones and would love this set, but I hadn't really looked too hard at them as I thought they were over my $200 budget.

Does anyone know if these require an amp? I will mostly be using these at the office plugged into my PC or Ipod shuffle.

yup, I was surprised as you to see this today, just picked up a pair ^^

I would like to know if these could be driven without and amp too

Wow. Wish I had waited a couple months!

That is ridiculous pricing.

 

[unknown123]

Wow I just paid 260...

 

[spauldingd]

I just placed my order as well...hoping someone can confirm they work reasonably well without an amp.

 

[jellojoe]

Thanks for the notice. Got myself a pair.

Thanks for the heads-up, I just replaced a pair I regretted selling a month or so ago.

Btw, this work fine without an amp. They really come alive with a good amp though!

[johnanderson]

Yes it is, if you clicked the amazon link you would have seen the d2000 for 185

The poster just mistyped by saying AHD-2000 when it is AH-D2000 easy mistake , one would think that you would do all the letters before the hyphen, half tempted to get these but I have some other priorities before I would spend this much on headphones, source, new pc etc.

I just bought it!

Sound good out of an ipod to me.

Oh gosh... and here it is now, Head-Fi finally forces me to buy my first full-size cans.

I'm far from an expert, but from what I can tell, yes. "AH-D2000" is the formal model name/number when you look at the Denon website.
