Member Reviews: Sennheiser HD 700 Headphone

Sennheiser HD 700   At the moment I unfortunately have no time to write a complete review.

Their innovative design uses a large "ring radiator" driver that is positioned a bit forward of the ears and then angled slightly backwards so that they deliver a more planar wave front. That modified acoustic wave front is the source of the 800s improved imaging as it more closely mimics the way we actually perceive sound. Listening to orchestral music, for example, produces an often uncanny sound stage of depth and breadth...
