This headset is a good performer... but if you realy want to hear what it is capable of buy a small amp like those made by Microshar [...] and WOW suddenly you will hear things in recordings you never knew existed. The headset is a touch on the big side... I'm not a pin head,7 1/8" hat size, and I can't get a good snug fit because it does not adjust any smaller. But the sound at this price point is worth it.

I love the balanced, sensitive response of these headphones. They fit well, sound great and arrived in a timely manner. thanks!
These headphones are wonderful. They are the best pair of headphones I have ever owned. I consider myself an audiophile. I have no electronic background but have purchased many high-end pieces of audio equipment over the past 30 years. I currently own several headphones including the AH-D2000 (I purchased these for my daughter) and the Ultimate Ears triple.fi10 earbuds to use when I travel. I am sure I would love the AH-D9000 but I felt the $600 difference was probably not justifiable. I was able to purchase these for $399. There is a small, but noticeable, sound quality difference between the 2000 and 5000 headphones that I feel the less than $200 difference was worth it. Bass is deeper without distortion. Treble notes are crisper. Midrange is fuller. Although I can listen to classical music, my preference is classic rock. Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall sound fantastic. Led Zeppelin is amazing. For those that have commented that these headphones need an external amp to drive them, I disagree. Although the majority of the time I listen to them using my Pioneer Elite receiver and they sound great, I plugged them into my iPod and they sounded very good. Maybe, not as full or rich of a sound and definitely not as powerful, but more than I expected especially given the reviews I read. I do not know if I would opt for the 5000 over the 2000 if the price differential was over $300 (I seen them from $399 to $636); but, at $140 difference when I bought them, that was a bargain.

No need for me to write another long users opinion on these headphones. Just looking at the reviews of others before I purchased the HD-D5000's had me sold. You might also want to check out [...] this is a great place to get a wealth of knowledge on high end headphones and gear. I was shocked to find them here at Amazon and sold by Amazon to boot, at almost $200-300 cheaper than other on line retailers. After owning Sennheiser HD-595's for the past two years it was time to step it up a notch. And wow I couldn't be more pleased. There is absolutely no comparison what so ever in the two. I saw one review describing the base, well to me it sounds like a powered subwoofer built inside and the midrange and highs are absolutely perfect for my taste. I have never experienced headphones with such realistic sounds in my life; it is truly like you're in the studio or in concert hall while it is being recorded. I listen to all types of music from rap to classical and everything in between, and it fits the bill for them all. Reviewer's say and I have heard from others including audio techie friends that the Denon AH-D5000's are over kill for mp3/wmr files etc. That is absolutely bogus and you will never convince me. Yes straight from an un-compressed HD-CD or mp3, are you not getting the best sound that is possible from ether format through listing with these headphones? If you do have a home theater set up with a blu-ray player it is unbelievable. So I have kicked those Sennheiser to the curb and said farewell. Just kidding, I gave them to the kids to play with. You need to find out for yourself what you have been missing for all these years for just for a few extra dollars, it's worth it. Reminds me of a scene from The Blues Brothers where Jake asked where's the caddy and Elwood traded it for a microphone and the reply was "Ok I can see that". So what ever takes get you a pair.
I just don't think she would have understood. "And I am not married anymore so I can"

A very comfortable great sounding headphone.
They provide a warm clear sound. I've compared them to my Sony MDR's and and AKG and the Denon has a lush balanced sound.
The Denon feels more analog and tube-like, while the Sony and AKG are more digital.
