Tool would sound epic through any pair of headphones 

Dude seriously?? you got to be kidding me.... they sound stupid on my MTPC and 315's...... Even ER4s cant give that "Tool Feel" if u know what i mean..

From what I understand, Razordogs are authorised Senn stockists so you should be OK. $250 is a very good price!

Hi everybody!

 

I'm very new here, but I have ordered a Sony NWZ-F805+Sennheiser IE80 combo.

So guys, I'm glad and proud and interested on your opinions if it a good choice is? I have an old one Sennheiser HD565 headphones, which I'm listening with an Onkyo hi-fi. My question is, how different music sound expirience will give the walkman with the Seni to me?

 

Many thanks for your answers: Philo

Welcome Philo

 
For me you won't be disappointed with this combo and the clear bass setting will do wonders with the IE-80.
Hope you enjoy a lot your new gear.

What's a good price for the IE80s?
 
Amazon has them for 390. Should I wait around for a better deal or is that pretty much what they are going for?

razordog has them for 350 after instant rebate

I've tried them and theyre an excellent upgrade of the IE6 if you want more bass. Personally, I think it's a bit overpriced though.

for 350 i dont think its over priced at all... may be ur focusing only on bass...

I do think it is a bit overpriced considering how sloppy it can get down low and with the recessed mids. I need to a/b them with my Pico DAC/amp and without to see if it helps, but I don't really think it does much. That said, I still love them for the insane amount and extension of the bass which I sometimes crave

Thanks.

Does anyone know how long Sennheiser´s RMA takes? My broken IE8 (still under warranty) was received at their office on Tuesday. I heard that they replace broken IE8's with the IE80.

Update: As mentioned above, they were received at their office on March 27. Now, 1.5 week later, I still haven't heard anything from Sennheiser. I also sent an email 3-4 days ago but still no response. Quite dissappointing...

Who talked about stock performance?? Did I?

 after the mod of course....

 

[loxxrider]

Hmm, I guess I really need to try that.

Hello! I got mine from Saturn eletronics @ http://www.saturn.de/mcs/product/SENNHEISER-IE-80,48352,439019,278753.html?langId=-3 for 209 euros, but they're 229 euros now. But I think its still a good price if you're ok with ordering from overseas.

I'm using it with the sony hybrids, got a decent seal but when I push it harder, the sound becomes more detail, so which tips should i get that is comfortable and last long???
