HD800's are DEFINITELY not the best, even at the flagship level, people all agree it's a matter of taste. I for one, prefer my Magnum build and my RS-2i over the LCD-2 for example and I can say that since I've owned both, but I still wouldn't post that impression all over the place since I know people love their LCD-2's and to them thats the best.
For me, I like MOST of the high end (~4-500) cans, and thats what keeps the hobby exciting since I like to freely swap between them. I'm stuck in a Grado phase right now and have been for the last 8 months. Maybe HE-500 for m
Posam:
I was considering the HE-400 but I already have a darker sound in my M-80s and wanted more grado lol. How are the magnums compared to the RS-2i? what housing are they in?
