... What would the HE 6 bring to the table that the HD 800 doesn't?
That's a tough question to answer. A lot depends on how you mod the HE6. I have the latest mods, but am still having some issue with the treble going a little 'steely' and 'glassy'. I will re-apply a little of the fuzor mod and see if that helps.
The modded HE6, when powered well, has a visceral quality that is hard to describe. Bass and mids are stunning - just a treble issue that probably has more to do with my modding than the headphone.
With the HD800S paired with the V281, the results are excellent. The modded HE6 takes this a step further, if only I can fix the treble issue.
I got my repaired modded HD800 back yesterday, so can compare the modded HD800 and HD800S from the V281. That will be fun.
