There are existing setups that can already prove that statement 'slightly' inaccurate, dear fellow.
I could be wrong ofcourse because I am not lucky enough to have heard all the high-end headphones on all possible setups. I don't know anyone that has a SR-009 with the proper setup for example unfortunately.
It would be interesting to listen to the Sennheiser HD600, Sennheiser HD800 and the Orpheus next to each other and hearing what improvements you get with the amount of money spent. Unfortunately I don't think I'll get the chance to do this test with my own ears.
So for now I'm sceptical when going beyond the Sennheiser HD800 based on what I heard with my own ears. I might end up buying the HE-1000 simply because I don't own a planar magnetic headphone. However I don't expect a huge improvement over the HD800, so I see the HE-1000 as a "flavour" in my headphone collection.
