The Sennheiser HD 800: The First Listen, The First Review
if all the hype & Pricing matches the sound quality. this will be a very good can indeed. However, My Guess is that the Sennheiser House sound since HD580 will be lost in this latest can. maybe a Muscle bounded version of K701???- IvanBarista

What Amps have best synergy with DT880/HD600?
I will say, RSA The Predator, is a Good match to HD600, However, RSA SR-71a is another Level up. Unless you listen loss-less Files and/or audiophile grade Music. the SR-71a will make any lesser source sound like FM radio. Hence I recommend the The Predator, it is Musical, and bit less...- IvanBarista
