There is the fact that if you go back to the 650 then you have wasted $1400,most people will find reasons why they are worth it to justify the cost.
And lets face if they cost more they must be better,even if it is just for the bragging rights.

Whether or not the HD800 was deemed to be worth the $1400 tag, there are very few that would pick up the HD650 if the choice was available. I know for my part, I haven't listened to HD650's for an hour total after the HD800 arrived, inspite of many hundreds of enjoyable hours before. There can be a distinct step change in sound quality. Whether it's unnecessary or extravagant depends on priorities and pocketbook. |
