I had this quite sometimes ago, probably several weeks back. It was a tough purchase to decide due to the price of the ear can going up as much as 200 GBP. This is not anyone kind of price to be paid for a small headset compared to high endPC speaker set such as Logitech Z-5500 with full surround setup and THX certified. I had research in many forums to found this headset that I wish it could satisfied my entertainment needs. It took even more time to get this cans at this price including delivery since the price could sky high at 350 GBP in some other so called 'retail online shop'. Regardless how much the price is I had paid for it.
Basically, I've several pairs of in ear headset and a SONY MCR 200 as well, but those just can't satisfied me regardless sound quality or comfortably. Another critical reason of getting this babe instead of monster Z-5500 is the size. I can't be doing house moving all the time with something weight almost quarter of me. I had been using Creative T-40 for almost a year but the bass is crapped, I mean really crapped. It is loose and out controlled, result of manufacturing defective, I should had it RMA but it was Christmas back then. No one want to goes through the days without a nice speaker as companion during cold and lonely period. Friends were all gone back to their home town left me at the student accommodation. Anyway forget about this piece of shXXt.
The package arrived when I was about time got very angry with the delayed service for almost four days since I paid for next day delivery. Somehow the package got dented a bit due to unknown reason which I'm reluctant to think of. Basically, the packaging is fairly simple for something cost that much, the headset sit nicely in the weak packaging support wish I bet Denon did not foreseen their product would travel around the globe before reaching end customer. The box rigidity is far from being sufficient especially at the given price, it is soft and lack of proper supporting frame within the box itself to handle pressure of stacking items up. On the other hand, the accessory included just a simple 3.5mm to 5.3mm jack which I'd never be using it.
Despite all these unpleasant first impression, when I was holding the headset up. EVERYTHING PAID OFF !!! The headset is light with it is magnesium construction which is amazing at the size of the headphone itself. The second thing that amazed me is the comfort of the ear pad which is so soft and scratch less unlike those foam type. The third thing that I like is the fully sleeved cable to prevent cut and over bend that many in ear canal headset suffered from. Overall I really love the build quality of the headset itself.
I did few movie test for preliminary test and helping the headset going through its burn in effect. The clarity of sound quality is definitely up to my expectation while the bass is tight and deep. However, the bass output is not as strong like some other highly bass concentrated headphone which I always find hard to get use to it for long listening session. The detail of sound that this babe could produce is really awesome. I watched some soap drama and noticed background sound in the drama more audible such as slight traffic sound and etc. The overall sound quality get even better as the burn in time kicking, music have never been so clear before.
I love it because it would be my companion for the days coming while happily retiring my 'faulty' T-40. Thanks to Denon for making up such as nice headphone at the price which in the passtmight easily get up to 500GBP.
