Denon AHD2000 review

 

With earbuds practically taking over the popular private listening landscape, I can't help but wonder how many people consider over-the-ear headphones anymore. While I love my earbuds, especially while wandering around New York City and riding the...

Luxury full-size headphones with deep, powerful bass; well-padded earcups; solid construction.

Pricey; leather covers on earcups can cause sweat with extended listening sessions; body doesn't fold down for compact storage

For at-home listening, the Denon AH-D2000 headphones provide plenty of oomph, masterful musicality, and a solid, well-constructed design.

Denon AH-D2000 review

 

These are sumptuously turned-out headphones, with an ultra-comfortable, closed-back design: you can listen long (and loud) without annoying your ears

Comfortable, good looks, great detail, smooth sound

Possibly too refined for some people

These Denon's have a smooth, refined sound - maybe too smooth for some

Denon AH-D2000 review

 

Denon has got it just right with its new high-end headphone

Highly detailed sound ; Excellent imaging ; Superb extension at frequency extremes ; Comfortable

Slightly recessed upper midrange and low treble ; Can get warmer than some open-back models

Certainly among the best closed-back headphones we’ve heard and very fine by any standards. At £250 it’s also good value and the gorgeous build quality only adds to the appeal of its very fine sound. An accomplished package

Denon AH-D2000 headphones

 

Denon's AH-D2000s are truly outstanding. Masses of detail and a sonically neutral, balanced sound make these superb reference cans.

Sound quality. Comfort. Design. Sonically balanced. Terrific detail.

Mid-range lacks warmth.

One of the best pairs of closed-back headphones we've heard at this price.

Consumer review (cnet.com)

"The best headphones I've heard to date."

 

The unfortunate thing about these headphones is that they are too revealing of poor quality recordings. They have a fairly sweet disposition to musical sounds. They aren't unnecessarily harsh on decent sounds, but if a recording is just mediocre it...

The AH-D2000 has a wider range than any headphone or speaker system I have ever heard. From deepest bass to beyond the highest frequency I can hear, it can produce with clarity. Notably better sound than the Shure SH440 and Grado SR225i that I own.

They have a slight low frequency resonance in the semi-deep (less than 80 Hz) bass region that a few songs have hit, which makes it just barely noticeably louder than other frequencies. The AH-D2000 isn't always very kind to bad recordings.
