the HD 800 S will absolutely spoil you with respect to any other headphones. Everything else sounds condensed and crammed inside my head compared to the oceanic breadth of the HD 800 S' presentation. The more complex the music, the more rewarding the HD 800 S becomes, as it never obscures or obfuscates.

No headphone, in my experience, sounds as much like a scientific audio instrument as the HD 800. If you are an audio professional an have an application where using an open headphone is possible, the Sennheiser HD 800 would be my highest recommendation. They are simply unmatched in giving you the ability to peer into the mix.

Now the bad part: these are not "fun" headphones. There are a lot of great sounding high-end headphones out there that beautifully editorialize in one way or another: the bass punch and warmth of the Audez'e LCD-3; the speed and air of the Stax SR-009; the lush yet crisp attack of a Grado RS1--all legitimately attempt to deliver a signature sound pleasing to listeners of particular aural taste-buds. Finding headphones the tickle your fancy is part of the fun of headphilia

Mauvaise balance. Beaucoup trop accentué vers le haut. Ton H9 est assez malmené sur lesnumeriques.com !!!
