AH-D600

By on April 12, 2014 in
“I really like the AH-D600, as new and different as it is. One area the AH-D600 excels to my ears is low bass presence and impact. I’ve found the AH-D600 works well with all genres I listen to, including solo piano, where this funky looking headphone does a very nice job of conveying piano’s timbre and density with my best recordings. I own and really like the now-discontinued Denon AH-D7000, and this AH-D600 is just a different headphone (not to mention far more durable in its build); and I like this new headphone for what it is, which, for me, is a full-size on-the-go headphone that I can recommend at $400.”
Head-fi, Jude Mansilla

AH-D7100

By on April 12, 2014 in
“The frequency response ranges from an ultra-low 5Hz all the way up to 45kHz, thanks to a new driver design which is more like that of a loudspeaker than that of a pair of headphones.”
Bailey S. Barnard, Robb Report

 

“They’re superb…Easily the most comfortable over-ear headphones I’ve ever tested, and obviously they sound tremendous, too.”
Hamish Robertson, Vanity Fair

AH-D400

By on April 11, 2014 in
“The headphone and earbud market is a saturated mess of Celebrity-endorsed cans that are overpriced and provide little innovation, aside from boosting bass. Denon’s new family of headphones buck the trend by putting a control wheel and integrated mic onto the actual earcups and buds, and not as an afterthought on the cable. Defining features include 50mm drivers and an integrated amplifier (How many headphones have that? Answer: none.) You get what you pay for. And the Urban Ravers are ten times better than any pair of Beats.”
Raymond Wong, DVICE

 

“It doesn’t just do bass better than Fanny Wang, but treble, warmth and crispness.”
Discovery.com, Alice Truong

 

““They easily out-rumbled and thumped their worthy adversary. And so the interestingly designed Urban Ravers win this battle of the bass.”
Discovery.com, Scott Tharler

“It’s a big step up from its predecessor…a must-hear for dock buyers.”
What Hi-Fi (April 2011)

 

“…the audio is outstandingly good with a warm, rich tone that’s high in transparency (that is, it sounds like the musicians are in the same room).”
Pocket-lint (April 2011)

 

“Bowers & Wilkins has pulled off an engineering masterstroke with the Zeppelin Air.”
Trusted Reviews (April 2011)

 

“The B&W Zeppelin Air is a high-end iPod dock with AirPlay wireless music streaming.”
Macworld – Editor’s choice (April 2011)

CEOL Piccolo

By on April 11, 2014 in

“Multi-format mini marvel at a brilliant price.”
T3 (February 2013)

 

“Put simply, a Piccolo plus Spotify equals a superb listening experience.”

“Compared with rival micros the Piccolo produces a fuller, more organic sound, one with weight and substance behind each note.”

“Not only does the very reasonable priced CEOL Piccolo play anything you’d care to listen to from wherever you might like to get it from, it does so with aplomb. Go on, ditch those old optical discs – Denon’s got your back.”

www.whathifi.com (January 2013)

 

“It is near enough impossible to fault the Piccolo musically, as it delivers incredible high and low frequencies with plenty of space in the mix to let instruments breathe.”

“It’s equally at home with compressed or uncompressed music, with enough skill and noise to pick out the details that lesser systems will have problems finding.”

“The Piccolo is one of the best value digital network devices. I strongly recommend that you give it a look.”
BBC Music magazine (May 2013).

 

“The CEOL Piccolo is a sleek-looking mini hifi solution that produces great-sounding audio.”
MacUser
