When our friend and sound designer @ericpalonen asked us to "pretty please?" spend some extended time with the HD 820, his reasoning was pretty straightforward: "I think it is one of the best-kept wide-open secrets. Oh, and no pun intended."
Since its launch, the HD 820 has found a home with two particular groups of listeners—those that want the DNA of the 800 series in a closed format, and those that prefer closed headphones but are looking to upgrade the generally-predictable closed-back experience. After (finally) getting to know it inside and out, here are his six reasons to consider putting it into your own rotation.
Fellow HD 820 users: are they your go-to cans or task-specific (late-night listening, at work, etc)? Are you using them for their closed properties or open traits? We'd love to know what attracted you to our TOTL closed-backs, or if you're curious, what's on your mind!
