To date I haven't heard a purer representation of "audiophile quality" sound than through my Etymonics which I bought a decade ago.   The treble is inoffensive, yet it sparkles and brings out every single detail. The full-size cans I have listened to elevate the higher frequencies to...

Has anyone heard about or ordered anything from this site? I came across it when searching for a pair of Denons and everything is pretty cheap. R.E.M. UNLIMITED Any input would be appreciated.

Hello Head-Fi,   I'm currently a satisfied owner of a Titanium HD, Matrix M-Stage and a Q701. I've had this setup for two years now and it's been truly great. I listened to a lot of rock, folk, prog and acoustic music with this setup and it always sounds super nice. However, the past few...

Would this amp work with Denon AH-D2000 cans. I'm using a Matrix M-Stage with upgrades presently but I have a fondness for tubes. The MK2's are fairly cheap and I'm toying around with the idea of trying one. Thanks, Sam

Obviously there are no perfect headphones and there are many things to look at, so say I'm looking for HP which deliver speakers-like presentation as my current HD650 do. Which attributes make a HP so? From your experience do some HP successfully sound more "live" than that or mimicking speakers...

Hi! I've had my D2K's for a while now and I was listening to them the other day when suddenly the screw holding the right cup onto the phones themselves broke. This is a common problem and after hours of research I haven't found any very descriptive tutorials on how to fix the issue. I have...

At home I use Q701's at my computer (running to a Xonar STX). I'd like to get a set of portable headphones or IEMs for work that have a similar sound. I work in an office with low cube walls, so full headphones are out because I don't want to appear "unapproachable". I'm not looking for sound...

Would going from the d2000 to he-400 be an upgrade? How do these two sets compare? Am I losing out on anything from the d2000 if I make the switch? Is a fair trade a good deal? Which one is worth more considering comparable condition?

Just want to start a thread for the new Lyr 2.  Interested in impressions.

This was a project that started together with Casper Aug 8th as an idea and today about a month later has become a reality. Unreal professional work done by casper. Able to take all the ideas I had and put them into my new favorite headphone.    Absolutely LOVE these headphones.    What...

I'm looking for: -lots of detail and clarity such that the multiple melodic lines in a fugue are easily distinguishable and that every instrument in a piece can be picked out. -unrecessed midrange and textured, extended, substantial (but not at the cost of the midrange/overly bloated) bass...

Hello Guys,   I am not knowledgeable in the world of headphones, so would appreciate advise from anyone who would like to offer.   I am looking for possible combinations for a set of over the ear open backed headphones and amplifier to use at home, hooked up to Roksan Caspian cd player...

So, I just recently purchased a pair of denons ah-d2000 from ebay, but unless i equalize the treble REALLY low, it hurts my ears A LOT when they sing anything with ''s'' in it.   I was thinking it might be my cheap amplifier, i'm using a Fiio E3 that i got for my old sennheiser. My budget...

  THOSE OF YOU with wonderful looking and sounding wood backs SHARE YOU cans :D    I've got a highly modded, Denon AH D2k and slighty modded W1000x, both are terminated to 4pin XLR for use with my balanced amps!     

Looking to move up from my M50s and I think these cans would be my next step upward. Any ideas of where to purchase them? Used? Anyone have a set they want to sell? 

Hi,    Last year I bought the Beats pro but returned them because of all the bad things people said about them.. And I actually regret that decision. I bought the V moda m100 instead, but I still miss the beats pro for the incredible bass they have. I mainly listen to house music and very bass...

I've had a few headphones, mostly driven by my UDAC 2, but have also played around with various Chinese amps, from the top of my head: AKG 700 - Great soundstage, but too lacking in bass. Denon D2000 - Overall great, but a bit cumbersome and not the best value for money. Sennheiser HD600 -...

See the topic ^^   Feel free to offer your own suggestion too !   Thanks all   Alan

Hi,    I've read enough reviews & cant decide which one would be better. I listen to wide range of genres but mainly edm, rock, metal, trance.   Any suggestions are welcome! 

Good day all Hope everyone is well! Does anyone know where I can get headphones recabled in Aus? I've heard of Double Helix and Lawton Audio, but they are based in the US. I'm looking to shorten the cords of a Denon AH-D2000, or have them recabled (if I did what would be some good options at a...

Hey guys,   New to the site and hoping for some shopping guidance. My birthday is coming up in a couple weeks and I'm planning on getting myself the gift of a headphone upgrade.   My go-to cans are my ATH-M50's, but I also own a pair of chinsy on-ears for the gym and a couple dirt-cheap...

Looking for a bass heavy earphone that does not need to be inserted into the ear canal. I am not comfortable with deep insertion and I’m also looking for something that could be easily removed and put on the ear, which is definitely not the case with foam tips.   What I have tried so far...

Hey guys, first post here! So, i'm shopping for a new set of headphones, as my main cans, Sennheiser HD 555 broke a couple hours ago. I found them quite good with gaming, but with music they sounded too laid back and boring, due to my main music genre being Rock/Metal.    I would like to have...

They say the quality can only ever be as good as the source. 99.9% of my music is downloaded at 320kbps - given this - is it even worth investing in high-end headphones such as the HE-6's or LCD-2's or HD800's of this world?   Similarly, is it worth buying the amps required to drive these...

my d2000's need a new headband, the old stock one is flaking and pealing off   has anyone successfully relpaced their headband? is there a way to get the original denon one?   here are the only two options ive found:  ...
