Hi guys, Long time since I visited the forum. To my sadness my D2000 have eventually disintegrated (cups are no longer attached to the headband, the cable cloth is gone and the pads are totally worn). I really liked their fun sound signature and I would like to get something close. Thought the e-mu teaks or th-x00/tr-x00 could work. I would prefer going second hand if possible. Any thoughts on why to choose one or the other besides the cable? They seem rather similar to me.

Well...found a second hand (mint) pair of th-x00 at very good price, so I went for it. Fingers crossed ;-)

Mine were working great until my son started to "steal" them to listen to music. Somehow, they have degraded more in the last 6 months than in 6 years. I tried to find online the screw/wash/hinge that holds the cup to the headband, but no luck. I could find it for the th-x00 but it has a different size in the D2000. I might try getting one of those Chinese-made headbands and try savaging them.

Thanks Frans, I read your article even before posting. I might even build the Kameleon filter.
I was unsure why the second hand E-mu Teaks that I found online were always significantly more expensive than the th-x00, maybe it is a matter of availability. I have been rather disconnected from headphone forums/headphones news for a while, I have been super happy with my Kameleonized HD800 and I haven't felt the need to look any further.
But those D2000 were great fun to listen too!
