Wow. I have never heard this song. Thanks.

You should pick up the album of the same name if you like that song. It's widely considered one of the 5 best metal albums ever.

Sounds like something my daughter would say.......I must be getting old.

 
You're forever young when you listen to music.

Just got my HD800S today. Left my first impressions in a review, which will surely be edited later.

I like this Sennheiser verification system with the new HD800 S.
Mine arrived.  2618

Is that installing software on your PC?   
 
Not something I'd be ok with. 

 
No,  this is just a barcode scan from my iPhone.  Nothing transmitted to Sennheiser.

Doubt anyone would be willing to do such a trade, but is there any chance I could trade in my HD 800 for an HD 800 S somewhere? Mine get little use at the moment due to having to aggressively EQ them (sometimes wasting hours fiddling with the EQ ever so slightly...) to make them less bright and harsh for me.

You might not find a taker for that deal, but your HD800 + $1,779 can get you a brand new HE1000: http://store.hifiman.com/index.php/trade-up.html. Me, I'm waiting until they have an HE1000 trade-up deal for my Grado PS1000e. I might have to wait a while.

I'll consider it, but from the reviews I've read of the HE 1000 I'm not sure if I'd prefer it over the HD 800... especially enough to prefer it to part with them as well as almost $2k. I do love planar magnetic headphones, though.
