Sorry they didn't work out for you. I purchased the D2000 a while ago after all the hype and was really disappointed. I didn't like them and put them up for sale in a few days. Sure burn-in helped but they were just not for me.
I hope you find the sound you're looking for in another headphone. Good luck !

But not in an enjoyable way(and I generally like bass!), they don't feel like controlled and kind of muddy and overpowering everything else at some point. What's worse are the highs, they are harsh and way too bright! I was listening to the song "goodbye" by spice girls (in lossless format) and every time there's an 's' sound, I feel like my eardrums are pierced thru, and it literally hurts! mids are ok, but not as forward as I wanted them to be. I was really hoping they could be my closed-back phones (mainly for vocal listening) when I need them, but now I'm not sure. I'm just hoping they could improve with better source and amps and break-in. Guess I would eventually go the AT woodies route for good closed back cans with good vocal performance. But man they are really bank breaking... |
