Denon D7100?!
Jul 16, 2013 at 8:37 AM Post #1,726 of 1,920
I just picked up a pair of D7100's.  I seriously love these headphones so far.  I also have a pair of Grado PS1000's with a black dragon moon audio cable, and I prefer the D7100's for my musical selections.  I listen to Metal, Hip Hop, and Rock in that order, so the PS1000's were the wrong headphone for me.  I've rolled the tubes in my WA6SE and settled on my Sofia and 6DF7 and the music is great.  Great thick, smooth bass, nice mids and highs.  The PS1000's were just to forward and almost hurt my ears for the my music genre preference.  I use an all vinyl and tube preamp setup for this.  No EQ options are available, as of right now I'm soooooooo happy about these headphones.
 
So many negative responses to these headphones, but I really could careless, I'm loving these headphones to death.

Lets hope it is not going to get to this :wink:
 
Mine got seriously brighter after 200h+, but I am using them with brightish cable so have to play around and see if it is permanent or is it cables / transport mixture.

I really want to experiment with cables and the D7100s.

Listening to Earth, Wind, and Fire's 'I Am' album through my D7100/E17 combo.

The Phenix Horns.

Phillip Bailey and Maurice White on the vocals, not to forget 'The Emotions' on the 'Boogie Wonderland cut.

Verdell White's awesome bass lines.

I just ordered a Moon Audio Black Dragon cable for my D7100s, I'll post once they arrive to let you know how it sounds.

 
Great! Excited to read your thoughts on them. The stock cable is already high quality but it will be interesting to see how the headphones sound with other cables.

Nice, I'm looking forward to your findings as well. I upgraded my D600 cable using Auric Hook-Up Wire and noticed a slight increase in treble sparkle and bass tightening.

And how do you feel about the comparison between the two?
 
I've got the D600 and D7000.  Love them both to be honest.  The D600 is so maligned on here it's almost Beats-like and I'll never understand it.  Doesn't matter - D600 lovers don't need validation, we just need the loudness switch engaged.

Actually, the D600 is the better one, the D7100s are the muddy, wooly-sounding things.
