That is a really interesting interview and it shows, not surprisingly, that a lot of what has been posted here is wrong.
How can you read it???

My guess is the original interview was probably done in English to be translated to Japanese only for us English speakers on Head-Fi to read it through Google Translate. What a world and time to be alive.
Another video from CES shows up. The Sennheiser rep said in around 1:55 mark "the bass response of this is really amazing". Take it as you will.
I would've thought that a closed HD650 would've been a better place to start for a closed back audiophile Sennheiser. A $1000 extra just for a HD800 that's closed is risky. Do people who want closed really need closed 800 that they are willing to pay that much more for it. Also, If I had an HD800 or S and wanted a closed flagship, I wouldn't want a closed HD800, especially if it sounded the same. I'd want something to complement my HD800, most likely with more bass.
So it costs $800 more for the same sound and same treble balance? I was hoping for some sonic improvement (a more natural top end) given the added cost. Hmmm..Yep, and for all the doubters:
"In a word, "sound that does not change from HD 800 S"
Yes that is correct.Unless I'm mistaken, that was the voice of Axell Grell.
