I don't find it difficult myself, they are just neutral and reveal upstream component quality every time i have heard them, and I have heard them on a lot of setups, some good some bad. One of the few that I thought was a good set up that they didn't sound good on was the TTVJ 307a-sounded thin to me but otherwise they sound very revealing. I have worked on my own system since getting them though because it showed the holes in my set up more than my other HPs. For instance, I could get away with stuff with my DX1000s, which are great phones and I am actually listening to them more now that the newness has worn off the 800s. Still I I really want to hear something with all of my attention, the 800s do it. By the way, I am not a seller or manufacture by any means for the more paranoid fringe out here.
As far as the L3000s go, i do like those too and if i ever have a chance to pick up a pair they will probably be the last pair I ever get, I am covered at this point, those would just be icing.
