The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread

Does anyone know if Sennheiser or another company has released touch-up paint to help cover paint chips on the stock paint job? I guess I could try to match the paint at a place like Sherwin-Williams but I'm afraid I'll just make the headphones look worse if I try a DIY job like that.

yes, Mechanical pressure, Yes the HD800, mostly how it hits my Jaw and a little how they sit on my temple, kind of feels like a mix of the weight and clamping pressure, maybe enough time will make it go away

I've spent a lot of time fiddling, haven't quite got the right setting yet, will keep playing though!

I am so sorry to hear that. They literally fall off my head if I move around too abruptly or bend down for more than a sec. They disappear on my head when I wear them. I wonder if you have gotten a defective pair. Have you tired other pairs of the HD800?

Does any body have the HD800 wired for Balanced XLR and hooked up to amp output? any pictures will be appreciated. I swear by XLR.

I swear by uranium nuclear-reactor-core cable amplifiers, the nuclear reactor multiplies the electrons which causes a fuller and amplified sound. Volume control is done by shortening a bit of the cable in the amplifier itself. The extreme decay and deadly gamma rays also prevent interference from reaching the audio signal. I hand-craft these cable amplifiers in my Russian bunker with a chemo suit.
Availible now for a steal of $99,95 per cm!

By what name should I get the cable plugs that fit into the HD800, I´ve decided to make my own Balanced cables inspite of some people making fun of me.

If you mean the connectors in the headphones, I heard that you can order them from Sennheiser directly for a not very expensive price if you mail/call them.
Other online stores (idk which ones) also sell the connectors for $50 a pair. They're "custom" fancyness so hard to get and overpriced.
