QUOTE(Problem @ Jan 5 2016, 11:10 PM) Listened for the past 2 hours and gotta say it goes like this That video reminds me the driver issue in HD518, HD558 and HD598: same drivers but different housing and numbers of absorber etc. Eventually it comes out with famous HD558 modModded HD800 >= HD800s > Unmodded HD800 The 6K peak feels overly damped than it should than the modded HD800 which loses its sparkle in the highs. Will listen to it more over the week. Edited: PS: HD800s joke that pissed many head fi fanboys who don't get sarcasm. And so the Graham Slee Solo amplifier, the difference between the ultra linear and normal version: additional cable Back to HD800, my first impression of HD800 is huge soundstage, very clear seperation, sharp vocal. It is worst to my ears especially paired with HDVD800. And many reviews comment on HD800 that it is a very hard to find suitable DAC and AMP.  So, I am not sure whether HD800S can be easily paired with any DAC and AMP or not. This post has been edited by shin2l: Jan 6 2016, 06:51 AM |

QUOTE(Problem @ Jan 6 2016, 08:31 PM) If you didn't particularly like the HD800 sound signature (i.e: brightish elevated around 4K-6K), doubt you'll like the HD800s unless its only the highs that turn you off while other frequencies are ok to your ears). Try first before I comment, but I cant use portable setup to drive it too  How is it against Beyer T1 2nd gen? |

QUOTE(Problem @ Jan 7 2016, 08:53 PM) Edit: something to tease you guys, this was included together in the package which shows the pdf version of the frequency response of each individual HD800s I rather Sennheiser give the balanced cable as free or c/w with aluminum casing like Beyer T1 1st genOr free HDVD800 also can |

QUOTE(jchue73 @ Jan 8 2016, 09:24 AM) For another RM 10k extra, of course they can throw the HDVD800 for "free". That is not bad, at least come with balanced cable. Anyway, the HD-800S does come with balanced 4 pin XLR cable. |
