I am very interested. I have a new amp arriving in September and the HD800S will be amazing on it!

Hi there, brand new to head-fi (but not audio!) but super-keen to take part - I live in Sydney, would love to get in contact to provide further details and enquire if possible!

Interested. If I get the chance, I'll compare it to LCD-X, driven by Chord Hugo and Cavali Liquid Carbon. I've heard a lot of summit-fi headphones and HD800 is one of my least favourites. I'm curious if HD800S can change my opinion.

I'm based in Melbourne btw.

Would love to test the HD800s. I`ve owned the ie800`s for around 3 years but am still impressed by the sound on every listen. Very interested to see what the Sennheiser engineers can achieve with a full sized form factor.

I think it would be interesting if you could try them out on the Red, for science. They do claim to power 'high impedance' cans...
