The Stax Thread III

[NoPants]

HD800 is too artificial sounding for my tastes, one caveat I have about 007 is that I end up listening at levels that are way too high

HD800 Good for video games, Good one guys

 

[NoPants]

I don't think he's joking

 

[Moonhead]

Sounds like a joke to me.. Come on guys!
I know this is the Stax thread, but HD800 is a very good can, nonetheless.

With HD800's expansive soundstage, I can imagine it works well for video games. Its clean response is a good match for electronic music too.

I would also use the HD800s for gaming because I don't have to turn on a space heater to run them

Besides, they are very comfy...

For someone that takes video games seriously, I can say precise soundstaging will give you a large advantage in many competitive shooters.

Has anyone noticed the HE90's on Audiogon?  http://app.audiogon.com/listings/in-ear-sennheiser-orpheus-he90-headphones-2014-11-06-headphones-n15-5lh
 

 
 
This seller must have HUGE ears, if he thinks these are 'in-ear' 'phones.
 
Maybe the seller is clearing his headphone rack for the new Sennheiser electrostatics rumored to be coming....

 

[Ra97oR]

Hmm, What. $3400? I can see this gone in no time.

Cut the seller some slack. He is throwing in the Orpheus remote control at no extra cost and is offering free shipping...

I am in London at least 3 days a week, tempted to ask to just do a face to face trade. But yes, that really does sounds fishy, 0 rep too.

The fact that the exact pictures can be found in threads on the internet dating back to 2011 does not bode well for it being a real seller.
