Okay, when I compare the HD800S's bass to the HD800, I find it somewhat "indistinct", not clear or sharply defined in comparison to that of the HD800. In my opinion, both HD800 and Utopia surpass the HD800S in clarity when it comes to bass.That is funny, the HD800S is nothing even close to Warmth. Let alone unnatural warmth. If there is anything unnatural about the 800S is the timbres, which is more directed toward references sounds to scope out the music and details, but the S does such a wonderful job to make it also enjoyable while doing so. It is neither boring nor musical, but enjoyable in a sense of staring into your music and seeing every details out of it.
I am not sure what anyone would mean about precision, at what aspects ? Timbres resolutions and realism ? Nope, far from it, and I would say 800 would be even further from it...lol!
Though, I hold 800S to be in a very high regard for many things done right and sound right. It is the only dynamic headphones that sound so close and similar to a Stax system in signature and presentations. I totally love it
When it comes to all-around performance, comfort and bang for buck. The HD800S still outshines most anything on the market.
