| -tempesta's Full Review: Denon AHD-950 Headphones |
I just got my (much anticipated) pair of Denon AHD-950's yesterday, and all I've got to say about 'em is; 'No way...'. I was expecting quality for the price ($185, after shipping and everything!) and got far more than I was expecting out of them. Not only do they sound great with the vaporized diamond diaphragms and 6 nines pure copper voice coils, but they're also comfortable. They hug my ears to the point that I don't feel them after I've had them on for a minute or two, and I can wear them almost all day.
I've thrown the most demanding stuff I know of at them so far, and even at high volume levels, they remain undistorted. In fact, a good friend of mine was over, comparing them head-to-head with his AKG K240's and was finding things he'd never heard before in music he listens to regularly.
The only real problems I'm having with them so far is my sound card refusing to stay clear at high volumes. Although using CD, the 950's sound crystal clear.
