Anybody heard them? Especially the AHD2000 model.
I have an old pair of mid-range Sennheisers that I never really liked. And I can get a pair of the Denons at a deep discount.

Like asking for thoughts on MMG's and recommending U-1's.
Slightly, but when you hear them!!!
I use with a Creek OBH-21SE Head Amp.

But there is no way in hell I'm going to spend $2000+ for a headphone setup...
...unless I win the lottery...
I have a pair of D5000's I paid $399 for at B&H Photo. They are WONDERFUL. I had a pair of K701's before, these are in a different world. And very comfortable besides.
Headamps are recommended, but your Luxman may suffice. Check into the Head-Direct EF5.
My main system is about ten grand. My headphone system is about two grand. Other than the obvious 'it's a headphone sound' caveats I'd say the resolution/enjoyment factor of both is very similar.
Check into the Corda line of headphone amps from Jan Meier. He has a crossfeed circuit that is supposed to be really good. I've never heard it, but might get his newest amp coming out in February to try it.
I have the D1001 nice cans The 2000 are highly regarded and can be had for 210 on amazon. I have not heard them but head-fi,org and check them out. I love both mny 701 and the Shure SRG840. The shure for 145 at Amazon are amazing cans/
By the way, thanks for the head-fi.org recommendation.
I've never owned higher-end headphones. Will they need a separate amp or will plugging into my pre-amp (Luxman) do?
If you have a head amp on the Luxman it will do fine. I use both my Outlaw2150 RR receiver and I also have a Little Dot MK11 tube amp qhich is where I always find myself listening I use a Marantz DV6001 Universal player with the tube amp. The Little Dot is available for 149 plus shipping from David ZHEZHE on Ebay. If you go tubes dont buy from anyone else. Will be at your doorstep in seven days. I use the AKG 701 SShureSRH840 and the Denon 1001 with great results. Once you start with cans you will get addicted fast.
