You should also be aware of fact that the player can decode 24/96 files, but can only output at 44,1. Or so I heard. Despite of this, I like the sound very much... so no complains.  

No, it shouln't be able to do that. Hardware limitations. 96/24 is possible. If you really want to listen to that album, you'll have to down-convert it to 96/24. As far as I know... At least this is the case with my HM-602.  

Hi,   generally it's agreed that HM-801 can play 24/96 without any problems, but when it comes to 24/88, results are mixed. Most of the time this doesn't work. I tried some 24/88 files and HM-801 coudn't play any of them.

Sold!   I would like to thank here to everyone who showed interest in buying. Thanks.

I bought my HE-5 in February 2010. So far I haven't experienced any wood issues. I'm just surprised to see that HE-5 are still available. My impression was that those are not in production anymore and were replaced by HE-5LE exactly...

I'm digging my own grave here, but I always thought that HM-801 sounded better after some 20-30 minutes of playback. I'm not talking about HM-801 to EF5 set-up (so no tubes involved), just plain HM-801 to headphones. To me, the easiest...
