    The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread

    I think Beats by Dre with diamonds sounds better than SR-009 and every other headphone because it is so expensive. :))

    Well the V800 is a lot better so keep using it. ;)   *Gets banned for making Sennheiser lose sales.*

    The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread

    Well last time I put my HD 800 in my motherboard's audio output there wasn't any noise really. And I assume that the WA2 is better than a "premium" onboard audio solution.

    The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread

    I went to my HD 800 dealer and they gave me a new cable. Probably because repairing a cable costs way more money then a new one, probably €150 profit on that €180 cable lol. So far everything is perfect again, and I still have the old cable (it probably broke at the Y-split internally) which I...

    My cable went bad, and apparently it's too hard for Sennheiser to also check the cable when you send it in for repairs. Check it with some other output first I guess, if there is no static there then the cable is the culprit.

    Quote: There is a easy way, just take the stock HD 800 cable, remove the 1/4" plug and put XLR on there. If you can't do it yourself let some audio store do it for you. You'll get the same cable that Senn sells for £250, the only difference is that your XLR connector is different.

    Need help building a rig for the upcoming Sennheiser HDVD 800 amp

    Read up on the HDVD800 thread, you can probably find all/most of the problems within the latest 10 pages.

    Constructive "Anti-Beats" headphone discussion

    Quote: But man, a group of people hating on the same thing unites those people. Let us be the cool people on the internet. Just make a sub-forum at 4chan.head-fi.org and all the problems will go away.   ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    High End Racks

    Quote: I just stacked the two at my regular computer desk, looks very cool to me. But I guess you do want a nice rack if you have them standing lonely in the corner of a room or something.

    High End Racks

    I don't believe in... racks. Lolwut? My PC works when I shake it around heavily, so the oh-so-minor vibrations shouldn't matter at all. $0,02

    Sennheiser HDVD800 Headphone Amplifier

    Quote: My V200 is the only unit that I have faith in, and you can actually talk to the people at Mytek through Skype which helps. Pretty darn good compared to Sennheiser, they respond to your emails after 4 weeks and their repair service doesn't really work either.   And no, I'm not...

    Sennheiser HDVD800 Headphone Amplifier

    Quote: I'm not crying about it's sound quality, but a flagship that's $1800 shouldn't have these stupid problems. That's like buying a $5000000 Ferrari and then it turns out its top speed is 50 km/h.   I'll be known as the realistic pessimistic person on Head-Fi.   Anyway, the...
