Finally got a pair for myself and am in love. Much more enjoyable listening experience compared to my Clears and oh my god the bass is so good! Also the build is immaculate, pictures definitely make it look flimsy.

Already considering selling my Clear for an amp upgrade

Glad you've found that special one.

I wish you hours of pleasure on end.


Thou, i've to say that i'm going to sell my D9200.
It's too similar to the Era-1 for me.
Maybe my ears aren't that good. ^^
The Quads offers a better listening pleasure to me overall.

Nonetheless, i'm heading for another closed back.
We'll see what's next.

I saw your 9200s announcement in the new Head-fi classifieds lists. I hope you won't regret for that...

Don't worry.
I'm totally fine with my decision.

For a home listening headphone, the Era-1 offers a slightly better experience to me.
There was some very long days of going back and forth between them, so i'm somewhat settled now.

Would be glad to find a worthy new home for the great D9200, nonetheless.

Heading for a new open back headphone instead.
Maybe i'll have a look into ZMF ones, bc it should be a dynamic one.

But i've time to take the plunge.

It's all about the music.

Anyone else have issues with the AH-D9200 where the cups fall off easily?

Yep. No problems with the cups on my first pair, but those were returned due to rattling in the right driver with low-bass notes.
However with the replacement pair, the left cup would fall off with the slightest nudge. Swapping the left and right cups over has improved this. The fitting could still be more secure, but now it’s good enough.

A few pages ago, there where some reports about loose pads. I’ve returned my previous D9200s due to this issue. I’ve switched my left/right pad of my current D9200s since it was still loose. Now it’s ok.

No issues whatsoever for me.

D9200 a great headphone! Enjoy the bass a lot

Could audio technica AT-BHA100 drive it properly and have good performance ? Thanks

I've never had this issue occur on my AH-D9200 before (thank goodness). I use these headphones quite a fair bit, so if it's a defect across a large swathe of manufacturing batches, it'll show up on mine, too. With that being said, I've had nary a problem with the pads, so this could be a localized issue. Try switching the pads around - I hope you get them resolved!

Hi, by cups I presume you mean the ear pads. I haven't had any issues with my D7200s or D9200s. In fact thy're a little challenging to remove, but I'm always careful not to damage the plastic latches on the mounting ring as they look as if they would be easy to break. It would be nice if it were possible to purchase the plastic mounting rings separately, but they're only available together with pads.

Yes it happened to me twice and with the same left pad, but just when I'm cleaning them after use (following Malevolent's recommendations, thanks a lot for that, mate )

How are you enjoying your AH-D9200, by the way? I hope that you're getting as much mileage on these cans as I am!

Now, like you, I'm in a fever to look for the best bass. The 9200s started that itch , after tried some Beyers. In a few weeks, I will re-buy the DT 1990 Pro with an Amiron Wireless foam pads to increase the bass and decrease the highs. Then, I will save for the DAC/AMP I mentioned in "closed back thread". After that, I'm thinking to go deeply in the rabbit hole (if I still can, after all those purchases) with Z1R, and maybe TH 900 (i'm very curious about the bass of them) and, of course, the new Rögnir.

I'm falling in love again
Have listened before with Silver Dragon and after that I've used the Beyerdynamic Copper Cable 'cause the 15ft XLR Silver was a mess, and now it pairs with my Z1R...
But today Is one of that days, my 2,5 Silver Dragon 5ft (already burned in) arrived supposing to use it on the go in the Appartment with the Z1R.
So before I go to the dark side of Sony I had this flash in the head to try it first on the D9200.
QOBUZ/KateBush-All the love 44,1KHZ
First I plugged it in both sides of AK SE200, AKM was No good Combination, ESS little better, but the voice...
So put the cable in the AK SA700 and what can I say, this Combination.
I never have heard this Phone so pleasant.
This Player is my on the go One because I don't like huge soundstages outside.
Now with the new Combination the soundstage feels alright widened.
Was thinking to change some Tracks and listen to a playlist and now I'm lost with Kate

Ouch! I see myself in you, my friend - someone who enjoys their current headphones, but is always left pondering... is there something else out there worth trying / buying?

For me, I am very happy with what I'm hearing from my cans in the dynamic side of things; however, I have yet to find a truly great planar that satisfies my persistent bass itch. The AEON 2 Closed comes close, but none of the other (closed) planars are able to deliver the lower registers in spades. I'm hoping that the Rögnir will be that halo product that I'm seeking.
