The he400 is really proving to be somewhat of a diamond in the rough with regard to budget orthos. It's a shame that it didn't make your list. I suppose that it doesn't really fall in the category of a flagship.
You might want to change your mention of the HD 800 pads being non user replaceable. Found out the hard way when I tugged on the outer edge one day. Tore the seam and had to order a new pair.
"Awesome" is an overused term these days, but this review is awesome in its awesomeness.
And beautifully presented so that it's easy to dip into - which I will be frequently doing.
"Welcome to HPs, David Mahler. Sorry for your life !!"
No matter whether anyone agrees or not with any of David's findings, this is a Herculean effort.
I am in awe of the quality of layout and the amount of time, energy and dedication that this comparison must have taken.
Let alone the effort accumulating such an amazing collection of gear that allows this to happen.
David , thanks for this review, it is awesome in its detail, size and ambition. I have never heard the Orpheus but i have spent some time with the bass heavy R10 and i could not imagine enjoying a headphone more than that , the H90 must be a revelation!
