Hi everyone,
 
I just bought a pair of Denon AH-D2000Ks yesterday, and I have a quick question about the model number: what's the difference between AH-D2000 and AH-D2000K? What's the K at the end?
 
I bought my pair from Yodabashi in Akihabara, Tokyo, and the box reads AH-D2000K, but some box photos (and almost all English shopping results) show AH-D2000 as the model number. I'm just wondering if the K at the end has any significance.
 
Thanks,
 
CBG.

I know this is a few months old but does anyone know the answer to this?

As far as I know, they are the same, but Tyll at Innerfidelity had some thoughts regarding this:

Hey,
I just received my new pair of d2000's from audiocubes today. The box I received also has ah-d2000-k on it. Did anyone ever find out what the 'k' stands for?
Cheers

In electronics, a "k" generally just signifies that the gear is black in color, I don't know why. Since the AH-D2000 only comes in black, it's a little superfluous, so maybe was dropped in the US?

Thanks for replying. I asked audiocubes too and it doesn't appear to be anything significant. The headphones sound amazing though!!

Yes, they are a classic. Enjoy your new headphones!
