Yes , but my friend has the th900 and 9200 and he just exchanged pads. The th900 has a bigger opening , the th610 has a smaller opening than the th900 but bigger than the 9200.

was it a favourable sound when compared to stock pads

Where are you able to even find stock pads for 9200?

I've checked with my local distributor; the official replacement pads are $115 for a pair.

Very relevant question considering that most people seem to agree that there's not much that could be improved or should be changed about the D9200...

actually changing pads was not fav in my experience, this is why I only till now like the stock pads. I did not stax pads yet

That is good to know thanks.

I have gotten mine after all in time for the weekend. I have of course only just started listening, but so far it's pretty much exactly what hoped for after the impressions here. Not immediately impressive at anything at first listen, but after a few hours it starts to become clear how its almost immaculate balance is what makes this headphone great. Feels in combination with the excellent and comfortable build (no clue why this is supposed to be a b-stock) like a real bargain.

The clarity of the mids and how perfectly they are placed relative to the rest of the spectrum. It is so good!

Yes, the vocals are just right. As is the punchy and well textured bass. And the well-extended but (so far) non-fatiguing treble. I don't understand why these aren't much more popular.

They would be maybe, if Denon made Focal style advertisements and asked for double the price.

Psst, don't give them stupid but commercially totally viable ideas!

on the other hand... we already have ours

No, I really appreciate that Denon kept the price reasonable for an excellent headphone. To me they have a much better tonal balance than any Focal set I know. plus they are not ugly like the Focal models (especially the Stellia... what were they thinking?)

Btw.: did anyone try to fit the D9200 into the T1/T5 case? This is the one I'm about to order:

In the grand scheme of things, the Denon is either undervalued, or the other headphones are terribly overpriced. If it's the former, the AH-D9200 could easily fetch a price closer to $2,500, and still retain good value. At its current MSRP of $1,600, they are the price-to-performance champions of the TOTL headphone world.

I can't remember how the T5 (3rd Gen) measures vis-à-vis the AH-D9200, at least in a physical sense. With that being said, they are somewhat similar in dimensions - the 2 are relatively small for a full-sized headphone.
