David,
I'm not a frequent poster here, but the wealth of information shared on this forum is priceless. Most importantly, condolences for your loss & thoughts & prayers go out to you & your family.
I also wanted to say 'thank you' for all your efforts & sharing your insight & experience. Your review inspired me to take a big chance and purchase a pair of ATH W-3000ANV's to replace my LCD-2's. While I really liked the sound of the LCD-2's, I could never get comfortable with their weight/fit and found myself just not using them. I received my W3000ANV's (new in box) just Thursday (thanks to another Head Fier) and even though they are still breaking in, I am absolutely in love with their sound!!
Best,

Look at my signature - if a treble-sensitive person like me can fully enjoy them with modern genres and on neutral SS amp, you definitely would as well!
Very good advice indeed! I have recently compared LCD2 and HD800 with Conductor and they are the perfect yin and yang to each other. I like them both a lot. I started to understand why David said they are Neutrality Kings.

Er, let's cheer up a little here, guys. Are you aware that some cultures consider death an occasion for celebration--the celebration of life? In any case David has stated that he wants us to get on with the thread, as well as that he intends to join us again at an appropriate time. It would be a pity if when he does so the thread was still in mourning.

OK, back to the topic of headphones.
Is Sennheiser HD-800 a good headphone for electronic music? It has great soundstage, holography, it's fast!
What do you think?
