Are the D1001 really full sized headphones? Cos I have an earing in the upper part of the ear and I need something to cover the whole ear.
Just got my Denon 1001

Ditto this as well. Mids are there but not upfront like Grados/AKG's or what have you. It actually has a bigger soundstage than the SR60, interesting since SR60 is open where as D1001 are not.

I was plenty impressed by the soundstage, specially for closed cans. |

Its kind of hard to say. They are totally different heapdhones. The HD555's are open backed and the D1001's are closed back, thus making a totally different sound.

Same here, I was pretty much blown away, and really took off my headphones on occasions to see if the sound was coming from outside or from the series I was watching

well, maybe the soundstage issue is from my source, they are a bunch of 50-60s Classical recording by Klemperer and Karajan.
BTW, found a new problem here, who here that has 1001 that also listen to the Beatles?
I heard 2 really unnatural thump at the 1:10 mark of Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da, right after "Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door, And as he gives it to her she begins to sing" and in between the 2 "Obladi Oblada life goes on"s and then a couple more after the 2nd Obladi and Oblada of that series. Never noticed that before and sounds like the phone is broken(never even noticed this sound before). I have the remastered CD playing out of a PC with a decent sound card. I was wondering what instrument that could possibly be.
