Denon AH-D5000 - $699.99

Denon AH-D5000 - Reference Over Ear Headphones.

State-of-the-art technology paired with old world style craftsmanship combine to provide the ultimate headphone listening experiences. The AH-D5000 has been designed for music lovers who want to enjoy a realistic sound in complete peace. The enclosures employ housings made of natural wood Mahogany with superior acoustic characteristics that are rich with a broad, natural sound. Mahogany is a very popular material for drum making and guitars because of its great integrity and capability to produce very dark, warm tones compared to other more common wood types like maple or birch. Along with its acoustic characteristics, mahogany's light weight makes it an excellent headphone material as well. Microfiber has been used to form the diaphragm so that it faithfully reproduces the sonic details and delicate reverberations that occur in concert halls. Additionally the AH-D5000 headphones use a light-weight magnesium frame, this frame lets listeners enjoy maximum comfort during extended listening sessions.
