This review is from: Denon AH-C710 Advanced In-Ear Headphones (Electronics)

Background I own the Phillips SHE-8500 , Altec Lansing UHP336 (rebranded Ultimate Ears Super.F1 3) , Denon AH-C452K and now these Denon AH-C710k. Used a Cowon I7 mp3 player ripped at 320. Music types used for testing were funk,jazz,r&b,rock,and classical.

I burnt these in for 36 hours before putting then into my ears. They sound great. Maybe a little too great. Had to go back through and re-rip some of my music. There was clipping and these brought the imperfections to light. Now that I have the bad ones re-ripped the sound is really amazing. The fit is secure. The comply ear tips are great and will be ordering some spare comply tips from them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Sound, short and thin cord, June 6, 2010

This review is from: Denon AH-C710 Advanced In-Ear Headphones (Electronics)

Age: 37
Music Preference:
In general: New Age, Chillout, Instrumental
Sometimes: Classical, Hard Rock, Metal, etc.

Headphones I Currently Use:
AKG K-340 Electrostat-Dynamics (modded)
AKG K81DJ (moded)
Koss KSC-35 (Kramer modded)
Mee AI-M6 (silver and maun versions)

Sources in Use:
Meizu Music Card (M3) 2GB
Creative Zen Vision M 30GB
Samsung W550i (smart phone)8GB

Needless to say, apart from my full size AKG K-340's, these are the second phones that I usually use. They need at least 150 hours of burnin (to play music continiously). After the burnin period they become amazing! Soundstage makes me smile while the rich, deep and full bass makes me tap my foot, the detail is amazing. I am in love...

Now the downside, cord is thin, microphonics are not so well (Mee AI-M6 is much metter on this respect), and the cord is too short! Only 0.7m of cord! Yes, luckily the headphones are supplied with 0.8m extension, so after adding this you have 1.5m of cord length! But why dfault 0.7m cord on the earphones? Adding a connection to lengthen the cord is annoying... The only downside is the cord. I think they can make it better. The supplied leatherette (not real) case is good (sleek design indeed). I use them with the supplied Comply foam tips. Very comfortable and blocks the ambient noise very well with the Comply tips.

But if anyone who thinks that the connection is not a problem or the 0.7m cord length is long enough, this earphone delivers truly amazing (bleave me, it really is) sound!

Pro
You can feel the bass rhythm and dynamic of the recording. Headphones have similar sound signature to the Denon AH 2000, and Denon 1100. The headphone has similar bass quality to the Shure 535. The Shure 535 cost $500. They will beat Sennheiser and Shure for price and sound. Denon is the brand for headphones. Denon makes audiophile headphones that are affordable to own.

CON
Made in China. The wires are thin and fragile. The case is useless.
