It’s interesting to actually see the diameter of the cable attached to the female inner end. it makes me wonder whats the point in paying so much for aftermarket cables such as Cardas et al ?, when they end up connecting to such thin wires internally!. One would guess that in order to get the...

I also like the colour very nice!.

Apologies I meant around the outer ear, I appreciate that they don’t touch the ear itself or shouldn’t but what about lateral pressure from the pad onto the head. Mine do feel comfortable granted!. Maybe my pads are a little worn and consequently the foam has a lower resistance making them feel...

Could I ask how tight the HD800s is supposed to be on the side of your head?, as mine don’t appear to put any noticeable pressure in comparison to my 600 and 650s which exert a noticeable sideways pressure when putting them on . My 800s don’t have any pressure on the ears at all?. Is this to be...

I have read many posts both here and elsewhere of this outer black sheath splitting only to be repaired and consequently splitting further down the top cabling?.Do you think that putting shrink completely over this Upper dual cable could make it less prone to crack?. I don’t want to have to do...

I today received a pair of used 2018 HD800s, unfortunately on excitedly opening the box I noted that the top right sided cable (where the cable splits into two ) has a split in the plastic sheaf that covers the inner cabling. The seller says he didn’t honestly check the cabling that well before...

Well I’ve took the pads off and gave them a soak and a freshen up, the foam inserts in the box have also had the same treatment as they smelled a similar appealing aroma!! , cables likewise now to figure out how to remove the headband. Things seem to be improving well at least detergent smells...

hopefully it won’t be an acquired taste for the rest of my headphones!. if the people were just straight up and said “oh does it matter to you that we are heavy smokers, you can back out of the sale, instead of me asking before hand about condition to be told they are mint”. I don’t class smelly...

Apparently they were selling them for a family member, so it should have been a little more obvious mind you they might be smokers as well. Do you think smoking depreciates the value of headphones and by how much?. 10% 20%. If I had to sell them myself no one would buy them I’m guessing that is...

Just purchased a pair of HD650 from the bay and the seller obviously a smoker didn’t say that they are from a smoking household in advance. Although I’m a very give and take chap I feel that if something that goes on your head smells strongly of nicotine and you don’t smoke yourself it’s a...

So if the pads and headband are in first rate conditions then it’s probably a good sign?.

Hi, I’m potentially buying some HD800 cans, I’ve always wanted to try them but money has been the stumbling point. The phones are 2013 serial number 21###. The seller has told me that the headphones have only been used a Mx of 10 hours and he is the first owner. Can I ask are 800s a good buy...

Hello I’m Wayne from Uk, have recently got back into Headphones after finding out my neighbours have bionic ears themselves and can hear my full size speakers at low volume. So rather than be an annoyance I invested in a Burson conductor and HD600 and leave the full sized set up alone.
