theres that one place where you can get the mkii for like a buck 20.
the place that offers the refurb and new m50s cheap too.
can't think of what its called.
they always have that 40$ or $50 off promo code on the m50
 
you could also score the 770s used for about a buck 20 as well.
 
just my first thoughts on those two

Lul, HERE YOU GO D2000 FAN BOYS:
 
"D2000: These headphones look fantastic, feel fantastic, and sound great. The drivers are close to the ear, which, in my opinion, offers a more intimate listening experience (depending on your preference, you may not want this). The D2000s feel great on the head, and are very low-profile compared to the other two phones (they don’t jut out from your skull as far) and just by looking at/handling them, you realize the superior build-quality and finer materials. On the downside, the Denons are highly sibilant and have a recessed midrange in comparison to the Beyers. One thing to note about these headphones is that they are made out of very high-quality materials and components. I think a lot of their retail cost goes to the “design” aspect of the headphones. The Beyers, on the other hand, give me the opposite sentiment—that being most of the retail cost is represented by the drivers and electrical components.
Pros: Comfort, aesthetics, construction, soundstage
Cons: Higher price, recessed midrange, sibilance.

DT 770: One word, all-round. Okay, maybe that was two words, but I really believe that the DT 770s perform well across the board. If you are like me, and listen to a crazy spectrum of music genres, these are the phones for you. The bass extension and mid representation are phenomenal, and the large distance between the drivers and the ears makes for a lifelike listening experience (It reminds me most of listening to loudspeakers in a rectangular room). The Beyers will strike you as hideously unattractive if you are into chic designs, or…..Bose. I personally like them because they look like (and actually are when customized with a microphone) an aviation headset—militaristic quality, kind of. I also like the velour material on the ear pads. It doesn’t feel as hot and heavy as the leather on the Denons. Much better for a warm/humid climate or summer listening. My one qualm with the Beyers is the crappy adjustment of the headband. It is finicky and doesnt adjust smoothly. Beyer owners will know what I mean by that. 
Pros: Bass Extension, Bass Impact, Midrange warmth, Performance/Cost, distance between drivers and ears
Cons: Not good for travel (impedence and bulk), aesthetics(?), annoying to adjust headband"
 
145$ vs "350$" (that's what reviewer said)



The way you state your opinion makes it sound like you think you are coming up with definitive answers, when you aren't.
 
Sound is subjective. 
 
Some people do not find the Denons to be overly sibilant, and if ever they are, it's usually because of low quality recordings or being inefficiently powered. 
 
Your friends "opinion" is just one in a sea of others.
 
The bold text is pretty unnecessary.

i haven't heard the d2000s so i cant comment on them, but the dt770s have a great low end boomy subwoofer feel. they rumble in your head. i really like their sound. i just got the pro 900s which is tighter but i miss some of the boom the dt770s had. i guess from this list i should start saving for a pair of denons next lol

You know, I honestly can't see this helping any newbies. The impulsiveness of OP plus the subjectiveness of this hobby really aren't a good combo. I just read the whole thing, pretty nauseating...

i think he was just reposting someone elses review.
and bolding what he thought was contraditctory to what people had said in this thread.
they weren't his words i don't believe.  i think he was playing devils advocate.

That diction certainly doesn't help people's opinions towards your posting habits.  Continue doing it and people might not be so willing to help.
