Next time, you're going to have to replace the term with safer, more colorful, phallic imagery or euphemism, like banana / chimney / gun barrel.

I am finding myself oddly attracted to the HD700 for some reason...

Per MF, I'm probably making it seem more appealing than it really is.

The quench of your curiosity stayed alive for a pretty short time.popcorn.gif

Tried the HD 700s at a local hi-fi shop today through a Music Fidelity M1DAC, M1Headphone Amp and a yamaha CD player.

Pure Magic! Most comfortable headphones I've tried so far.

Purrin, can you please explain me why your FR graph of HD 700 vs RS1 differs so much from that on headphone.com?

http://graphs.headphone.com/graphCompare.php?graphType=0&graphID[]=3801&graphID[]=293

From your graph they look very similar while on headphone.com, RS1 seems a lot more treble peaky than HD 700.

Sorry if you already answered about this, but I missed it.

Sennheiser HD700 Demonstration Disc

I was curious, and searched the web but only found the hd800 demo disc. I didn't know it even exist.

I listened to it:

first track:  a kind of  instrumental combining vibraphone and ney flute

two tracks of country

one track of accoustic (voice + guitar)

one track of "swing" jazz, not very "swinging" but that should exhibit the bass abilities of hd800

 

I  guess sennheiser wouldn't dare to  put some bass heavy techno.

haha, oh silly you.

They would if it was for he bass. The problem with techno is the treble... you'd start bleeding in less than a minute.
