Oh... very comforting news for my wallet.

I must admit, after the initial honeymoon wow factor of the HD800s, the odd treble tilt started to really impose itself like an icepick to the brain. I find the K701 more acceptable in this specific are of the frequency balance. I am finding the HD800 upper mid/ lower treble tilt increasingly more and more unnatural, although initially I thought it was fantastic. I am quite afraid of using the HD800 for a real fear that prolong usage will permanently impair my hearing. I might just be paranoid, the point is the K701 never had this paranoid effect on me.
