i was very excited to try the hd800s together with the Oppo HA-1 amp and dac. i thought that it is going to be a clear improvement over the legendary hd800. however... look i like the black matte look of this model more than the silver paint of the hd800.
Pros:
- look
Cons:
- soundstage
- imaging
- excitement of sounds

As with every high-end audio equipment, you need to have an equally capable set of partner accessories that will complement it, thereby providing a complete quality experience. In the case of the Sennheiser HD 800, Dubai Audio Center recommended that I pair it up with the Schiit Valhalla headphones...

Sennheiser HD 800 Review
Sennheiser is one of the few companies around that refuse to run with the fickle demands of the market, with product refreshes that offer cosmetic changes and perhaps a minor tweaking to sound output.
Pros:
- Excellent sounding and very resolving
- Comfortable to wear - important for this grade of headphone
- Detachable cable eases aftermarket cable mods
- Is surprisingly forgiving on mediocre sources
Cons:
- Requires good amplification
- Will not sound its best without a high quality source
- Did we mention they're uber expensive

A very fine pair of headphones from Sennheiser, and worth an audition if you don't get on with Grados

Sennheiser HD 800 Headphones Review
The HD 800s use a patent-applied-for ring-shaped diaphragm. Headphone reviews are tricky. As these products are worn by the user, they are more "personal" than other audio gear. It's like reviewing a pair of shoes: The feel makes a big difference in customer satisfaction.

Sennheiser HD800 Headphones
These are the MOST expensive headphones we have done till date, trust me take a peek at the conclusion section to see just how expensive I'm talking about. But does that deter the brand from going ahead and marketing it?

Sennheiser HD800 headphones
Which brings us to a sticky question: Would I spend my money on a pair of $1400 headphones when I own the combo of AKG K701 and Cardas Fatpipe? Probably not-these are tough economic times, and editors aren't ringing my phone off the hook. I would if I could, but I can't. Should you ? That depends.

Sennheiser does it again, upping the sound and build quality from its legendary HD 650 cans to deliver a majestic sonic experience that has to be heard to be believed. However, you’ll need a great system to extract the full £1000 of value from them.
