I can say with confidence my sig is the end of my journey into the foreseeable future. I might even sell off part of it.
surprising that a headphone from half a decade ago is still the undisputed choice for many people. compared this to say, a 2014 GPU vs one from 5 years back.i also wonder when we will see a successor to the 800
Could be worse ... we can all be happy our favorite hobby isn't TOTL violins.
There's no such thing IMHO..
lol, can you elaborate?
imo, the technically "perfect" headphone should be able to 100% accurately reproduce the source without any alterations to the sound (entirely flat frequency response? like i said i don't know what a headphone's specs constitutes). whether or not that makes for an appealing headphone is up to the individual's taste. for some reasons this "perfection" isn't yet achieved . don't know much about them but i'd assume the perfect speakers don't exist either

good point. on the other hand, the HD800 is still considered technically superior to even today's flagships, which is unheard of in most other fields of hardware/technology. disclaimer: i have no idea what "technical superiority" entails because i don't know how to read specs
