Yep. I even prefer the lcd2.2 per fazor than the lcd3 fazor or the X (i don't even talk about the XC)..
You have bass on the 800
Seriously, the LCD2 goes far lower and with less distortion than the 800. You get more than 1% for the 800 where the lcd is below 0.1%. The THD+Noise % is even better at 100dB than 90dB on the LCD..
Those differences would be almost impossible to hear. They can be measured, but 1% distortion in real world listening is for all intents and purposes inaudible. Actually the bass is decent on the 800S, the LCD2F has more without a doubt, but the 800S with the very slight EQ bass boost I do for the lower region is quite good. I have owned the TH 900, TH 600 and D 7000 so I like my bass, but the 800S is just fine. Sure, more bass wouldn't be unwelcome, but the other strengths of the 800S more than makes up for the lower bass level in my opinion. I loved the LCD2F, and if I could have justified keeping two expensive headphones I would have kept the LCD2F, but given the choice of which one to sell, I elected to keep the 800S. Is it better? Depends on what you call better, they are both amazing sounding headphones with fairly different signatures. In the ideal world I would have both as the LCD2F was really rather nice and I miss it, but if I had to make the choice again I think the results would be the same. I actually didn't expect to like the 800S as much as I like bass and listen to a great deal of EDM, electronica, bass heavy pop like Daft Punk etc.
