A basshead want just bass, the rest is superfluous,lol.
Oh well, in that case I'm no basshead at all..

The bass on the Pro 900 really is not that strong or heavy and i am not the only one one this forum that has said that ! .It is never going to satisfy a true basshead
That is ridiculous! How much more bass can a can have?
How much moar bass IS there to have in the first place?

but then again, what will then?
As Pro900's seem to be one of the best for EDM..
Xb1k's/d2k's?
Oh believe me, there is bass to be gotten...
When you say IE7/8 i say bass light.
True basshead talk right there.
HAHAHA !!!

What you need is for tfta to make you a prototype full size can using there thin film technoligoy .
I agree the ie8 bass was not that hard hitting ,it was too warm and colored the vocals ,but was not that punchy or deep compaired to the tfta, that may have been becouse they are shallow fit though
If you can't afford the Pro 900's, I'd take a look at their little brother, the Pro 750's. Fantastic for electronic music.
Thing is, the headphones aren't very deep. While the cups are super soft and super comfortable, they're shallow, so your ears will be touching the back plate (the speaker is behind the plate). If that will be a problem, I'd go with the D2000's. The pads are a bit stiff, but I think they loosen over time. They're pretty damn comfortable, actually.
LOL Nah I wouldn't suggest the IE7/IE8 actually. Is the 1XB the bassiest you've ever heard? Might have to try that one some day..
Glad you like them. Give them a powerful amplifier and their bass gets more impactful but never louder or more bloated.
Glad you like them so much. They are indeed very solid performers. I use them for practically everything except EDM or music that needs a "drive" so to say. In those cases I go to my Pro 900 - they are unbeaten in that regard. The D2000 are as laidback as I can take it - any more laidback would be bad.
About the size of the head - I have a smaller head I think, but they fit me well. One thing though, I found the headband to be somewhat uncomfortable after a while, so I put on a headband padding from a Sennheiser can which solved that issue. Just something for you to consider if you start feeling that they would be uncomfortable on top of your head.
The cord, while it is heavy duty stuff (IMO) - it is prone to tangle, so make sure you don't "swirl" the cord too much or it will be a nightmare.
Good luck with your new headphones. They get even better with time!
hehe brought my Fii0 E5 just in case (as I came to the UK from france to pick up my headphones) - might whip that out, see how it goes !
Well yes, I saw the headband and thought to myself, that's a little....lacking of padding
Could you forward me the thread for the sennheiser ones or what not ?
I do think the padding really could do with a little more - little disappointed on Denon's part for not including a simple pouch (although I already knew that before buying them)
Oh, I just took one from an old pair of sennheiser headphones. I don't think there's a thread on it. Just put it there, be creative with how you do it.But if you want to you could order a spare pad: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/352734-REG/Sennheiser_052715_H_52715_Replacement_Headband.html One of those will do the trick.
Yeah, I'm a little disappointed in the lack of a pouch as well - but a cheapo headphone bag shouldn't be too hard to acquire.. Almost all DJ stores has got them. Just make sure you don't order too small - these are pretty big headphones. For the moment I'm using just a simple fabric pouch for something else and it works fine.
and in comes the XB700's bay-watch style - no worries - the pouch fo the XB700's accommodate the D2k's fine !
I'll need to find several things:
-HARD case (as the soft pouch is covered by the denon's already)
-Headphone stand
