Good that you are enjoying them. Cheers!

That's great, Ti. You should hear what they sound like balanced, err, rather bridged.

That's the eventual plan...

Sennheiser was really on to something when they combined the AKG K1000-like forward angled drivers, but with roomy earcups and large drivers (56mm diameter with 40mm magnet and 42mm voice coil). So what you have is the imaging benefits of the K1000 but without the shortcomings. Unlike the K1000, efficiency is good, bass is extended, and the earcups provide some acoustic isolation (even though it's an "open back" design).

Nice - I'm thrilled that you like them. It's a real buzz to be part of something to give you a new experience.

it never ends. as soon as you can afford the 3d stuff, they will come out with 4d.

A revelation whit HD800!!! This happened to me five years ago when I listened to my K-701 for the first time.
The new 800s are really a big big step from 600s...
