    Sennheiser IE 80 S impression thread

    My IE80s is pretty source picky. I owned the original IE80 and I was pretty happy with it, before I blew it up with my Chord Mojo which by accident I put into line out mode !! but that is another sorry. I used my old IE80 with the manual bass setting to minimum and I was happy. Good bass was...

    Meet the Sennheiser IE 80 S

    Can someone tell me if IE80S users the same cable as the old IE80? I am asking because I have a set of broken/exploded IE80 and a Toxic cable to go with them. I want to continue using the cable in case I buy the new IE80S. Thanks.

    The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread

    Just saw this and wanted to share it.   I guess in Netherlands it does not matter how you turn the HD800. https://www.hifi.nl/artikel/20421/NAVD-primeur-Hoofdtelefoonversterkers-Sennheiser.html
