Trust your own ears...my ears tell me that the hd800s are really quite special.

My wife uses my Grado SR225 exclusively, I think the last time I put them on was on a vacation six or so months back with a mobile amp. I guess to each his own but........ ![]() |

I like Grados, not my favorite but they are fine for certain moods but comparing the SR325s to the HD800s actually is the equivalent of comparing the PX100s to the SR225s recabled and all or to the SR325s. So if i follow that thinking I guess that I can compare the PX100s to the HD800s. ![]() Well some people like the inbox earbuds and think we are all insane anyway ![]() |

I think the hd800 is far overpriced (800-999 euro)for what they are.A set of Grado325 (350euro) or RS2 (500 euro) is also a lot of money, but then there is the crispy high , the smooth mid's and the deep and nice bass My opinion : hd800 is a hype headphone, with a very high price, but not worth that money. |
