Guess it is. Also the people who say they’re good for rock and metal music either use extreme EQ and tube amps or they love hearing all the details without any excitement from the music. At least I made a profit when I sold them, can’t complain too much

Plot-twist - you had a broken pair.

Picked up hd800S at a good deal in January, had them for about 3 months and decided to sell them since they don’t pair with the music I listen to at all. The headband was also very uncomfortable for me, definitely not enough padding. Moving on to Stax
Having both headphones...009S/007 and HD800S...they are both like pillows but only with the HD800S do you feel like the *princess*.

Did not, just didn’t fit me at all. It was one of the newest ones that come with 4.4mm balanced cable though
Im sure you wear them with tight headband adjustment. Youre just impatient guy admit it! Many people complain about all sort of things... Good thing such people is minority and we dont listen few guys out of 1000s.

Impatient? I had them for three months, I’d been saving for them for over a year and really wanted to like them but in the end neither the sound nor the comfort appealed to me

Did you listen to music in the headstand position?

I never heard this complaint from anyone.

Could be. You need to be happy of course and the 6XX are great headphones.

You can adjust it in many ways on how they sit on your head. Hard to believe it fit anyone badly considering care Sennheiser put in their totl headphones. Featherweight, very breathable padding, massive earpads, almost no 0 pressure from headband.
