    Selling due to lack of use. Only thing missing is the circle holding down one of the cables. A homemade sort of replacement for it is included, as shown. One or two of the buds where used briefly ( and cleaned ) before swapping over to comply foam tips. The stock cables have been modified at the...

    I see you have a chord mojo2. I find that a coupon of dB added to both the bass & bass shelf gives me a beautiful warm bass on the hd800s.

    Have been using the 400s for a couple of days on my m9s & very impressed. Isolation is the best I have experienced. Once the memory foam fully expands in the ear canal, great isolation. Oddly I have often experienced patchy isolation in my right ear only, using my normal selection of silicone...

    400. I too searched the comply website for ier-m9 compatible tips 😁

    Anyone use different EQ depending on foam or silicone? I have my first set of comply being delivered today having always used silicone. Will I need to increase treble & reduce bass? What is your experience?

    I have a spare sennheiser usb dongle. Mine arrived with 2 😬 Willing to sell for reasonable amount 😉

    The best way (im not being sarcastic) is to not get them dirty in the first place. Personal hygene my friend :) Failing that, soapy water tends to clean most things. Luckily, replacement pads are not that expensive.

    Have a play, there are only 4 settings. Different types of music do benefit from different levels, but at the end of the day, it's purely down to what you like. 👍 As for the no-eq-ever proponents, that's all well & good if you have lots of spare cash to spend on your audio chain, but for the...

    I agree. However, if I add my tube amp into the chain, I need to turn the bass shelf down a little. But yes, the crossfeed and EQ of the mojo2 are very good

    The mojo2 crossfeed works very nicely with the 800s. Worth your time experimenting with it.

    For you, £800. 😃 No longer for sale, I have recently tried quite a few alternatives in a similar price bracket, only to fall back in love with the m9s. Ps the box wasn't in too great of condition, but I got them for a very good price that reflects their condition.

    It's a vicious circle. If I buy an headphone with a crappy box, I expect it to cost less than the same with pristine packaging, because I know that the same will be expected of me as a future seller. If you never sell, the circle is broken, but you are the sucker.

    I would return them If you come to re-sell these at sometime, the buyer will expect a discount (perhaps more than 87 euros) due to the damaged box. Boxes matter when re-selling !

    mojo2 sounds nice & clean with the hd800s. For a bit more warmth and low end, I add a OTL tube amp into the chain as well

    The mojo2 fits the bill & sounds great to my ears.

    I think we are misunderstanding each other. Your cable may be the greatest single thing ever manufactured, but it is a relevant fact in any conversation that it costs thousands of $, much more than the headphones themselves. With that said, I will not comment further, because tbh I don't really...

    You told us of selling your stock cable, telling us how much you received, but didn't mention how the replacement is vastly more expensive. The price difference is relevant when comparing the two, and advising head-fiers on the merits of stock Vs 3rd party replacement.

    The cable you now use costs +$1000 now, right? I think it might be helpful if you make this clear.

    The connections are tight. And very close to the delicate metal mesh of the ear cups. With care, they are ok to swap over, if a little nerve jangling. But ask yourself why would you want to repeatedly change the cable? The stock cable is great. I have changed my cable over twice, out of...
