Guest Hottopic Report post Posted September 15, 2008 I finally reached the point where I'm just not completely satisfied with my Audio Technica A900ti. I've been going back and forth on the new replacement for a while now. I know Denon AH-D5000 get good soundstage and I've been debating on whether or not to get them. How is your suggestion?

Have you tried the ATH-W1000 (Audio Technica) for a comparision? I believe they are quite similar. Try it. regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would like to know your comparision. regards, it's not just tight bass, it's bass u can actually feel, it's bass where details get extracted without the need of a powerful amp. rare stuff in the world of headfi. the d5000 has a wider soundstage than the W1000. for mids and highs, it takes the W5000 to better it, but the W5000 still sounds limp in the bass dept when compared to the d5000.

Now that's something to hear about! Aside from the 'special effect' like listening in an 'earthquake zone', are the high, mid and bass finely balanced? My personal preference is for a balanced sound. regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
