The following story might be the truth or imagination.When Axel Grell from Sennheiser began to develop a new concept for a headphone he was sitting in front of an nice stereo set up let's say a Wilson Mark Levinson combo.He listened carefully and noticed the nice 3 D stereo image and tried copy...

On my first report here Senns against Ultra i was describing the soundstructure and now i will discuss about the soundstage.The Ultrasone is designed mainly to be driven portable and the manufacturer also advertise it to be used this way.The first test was done in a portable way and the...

Silvercore 812A/Sennheiser HD-800 that's it to hear angels sing

I have to add this warning.The Silvercore is extremely sensitive to EMF,before you run these amps make the following test.Switch OFF the amp and put the headphones on your head if you notice a HUMMM... please remove all other components wich are nearby as far as you dont hear any noises.The...

It seems that transformer coupled triodes is the path to follow. The Senns with Silvercore are insane and i will not describe the sound on these threads its because nobody would believe me its way above the Orpheus standard.

The break in process of the Ultrasones shows that they get now wider soundstage in depht and from side to side.I am thinking a lot of these Ultrasones somehow they have a magic signature where you get addicted .I have made observations of my own behavior and i intuitionally pick up the...

I ordered the Silvercore amp with the specifications to hook it up with the new Sennheiser HD-800.Had to retube it again to the Chinese 812A tubes with Mullard 5U4G. To make this short this is the killer combo the ultimate headphone experience.

Had a carefull listening with the solid state amp last night.It didnt went necessarily i the right direction the amp was not good enough.So when you use solid state it should be a dry ultra clean and dead silent amp.Definitely the ED-8 is designed for portable use.On the package on Ed-8 is a...
