These days,I found that some people said HE-5 is better than HD800, It that truth? And I am more concerned the sound-stage.Can HE-5's sound-stage better HD800's and k1000's sound-stage£¿

Headstage = sound that appear to be in your head
soundstage = sound that seem to be around your head.
Theyre part of the same thing (soundfield) but theyre just clarfications. Some headphones have a poor headstage (you mostly head stuff from around you) and some have a poor soundstage (its mostly in your head)

In theory channel bleeding will improve the headstage and reduce the soundstage.
Mono signals should be completely soundstage (although it might sound like it is coming from two different points depending on how 'integrated' the sound of the cans is).
Thats what i figured, anyway.


edit: ... this is what I think it is anyway... lmao

No, soundstage is good on headphones.
The stereo bias that exists in headphones helps.
