It isn't more easy use, it sounds like 50 Dollar crap. Okay, maybe the Ed 9 like 40.
Well, I really have no idea why Ultrasone even uses mini plugs (with adaptors) on a high-end headphone...?
And please look at its size: the Ed 8 isn't foldable and rotatable like the Ed 9, and the bag isn't as sturdy as the box of Ed 9's.

Really? I own ED8 and have borrowed the ED9 for a long time from a friend. My friend often used the ED9 outdoor with iQube and it sounded decent
(sounded awsome but only decent compared to stationary amps). As for ED8 it obviously sounds better with an amp (although surprisingly, I didnt like the matching with the predator) but it still sounds decent for me...after about 200 hour burn in...
If you are looking for something cost wise dont think about it both of them will cause about the amps and everything...
Sound wise...if you enjoy listening to songs that has A LOT of stagging, something like Pirates of the Caribbean OST go for ED9
For something that goes for clear soundings and machine sounds like pop or hip hop go for ED8
To be frank, it confuses me WHY ED8 costs SOOOO much more than ED9 (or is that just Korea?
)
