Denon AH-D1100

 

Today's headphone market is saturated with flashy, urban inspired, street-style offerings typified by exotic materials, outrageous colors and celebrity endorsements. It's easy to understand then how one might end up overlooking Denon's latest...

Warm, relaxed sound ; Super comfortable ; High sensitivity ; Solid construction

Bass may be a little heavy for some listeners

Denon’s AH-D1100 over-the-ear headphones shun style and celebrity shenanigans for old-school audiophile sound quality.

Denon AH-D1100

 

While I will agree nearly point-by-point with the reviewer regarding the sound reproduction of the AH D1100s, I must wholeheartedly disagree that these cans are ‘built to last'. In fact, this model appears to have, in the experience of a number of...

Great sounding headphones with pretty weak build quality

 

I LOVE the sound of these headphones driven by my iPhone and iPod, where I find the bass emphasis just right for all kinds of music. With amplified sources, it's easy to fine-tune bass to achieve a sound balance that's to my liking. The bad part: Poor...

Consumer review by:

Sounds pretty good, but kind of fragile.

 

I purchased a pair of these about 6 months ago and overall have been happy with them. They tend to be a little bass heavy for my tastes, but that's easily fixed with an equalizer. I like my Shure SRH840's better overall (especially the construction...

Denon AH-D1100 vs. MT-50

 

I have both Audio Technica ATH-M50 and D1100, I use my iPod to compare two headphones, Denon has more bass, and little too much of it, compare with M-50 sound much clear and the bass just right, I can hear the different sound of the high hat in the...

Consumer review by:

Nice sound, poor durability, VERY poor customer service.

 

While I will agree nearly point-by-point with reviewers regarding the sound reproduction of the AH D1100s (bass can be a bit thick, works better with an amp), I must add yet another incident where the product delivered was not 'built to last'. In fact,...

Consumer review by:

Really? this is what I should be expecting from a $200 pair?

 

I do agree with most of the reviewers, except by those who say that they broke their headphones. It's beyond me how such pampering users break them. I sleep with mine on sometimes, and I'm not a gentle sleeper. Other times, I have it on front passenger...

Consumer review by:

Bad experience or bad design

 

I agree with other reviewers on the performance of these headphones overall. They sounds great and are pretty comfortable. Unfortunately, about 4-5 months of ownership the small pieces of plastic that old the ear cups onto the headband began to...

Consumer review by:

Incredibly poor construction! New wave of cheep plastic?

 

I purchased my new Denon AH-D1100 Advanced Headphones in early July and it arrived in perfect condition. I work in audio and wear headphones four to five hours daily. I was shocked and incredibly disappointed when I discovered hairline cracks in both...
