Sennheiser HD800
The Sennheiser HD800 headphones are a very different proposition from other headphones in this price bracket. They look quite conventional at first glance, but these are very far from being ordinary ‘cans'.
Pros:
- Exceptionally comfortable
- good design
- solid bass
- fine presentation
Cons:
- Beaten by the Grado SR1000i for realism
- openness and insight

We finally got in the Sennheiser HD 800s. They aren't the most expensive headphones we've reviewed, but they're certainly some of the most hyped. We first heard these back at CES, and we've been waiting to get in a review copy ever since. So what's our verdict? They're amazing. Really.

Sennheiser HD800 Review
Replete with premium components, proprietary technology and several industry firsts, Sennheiser's HD800 headphones easily earn their place amongst the very best ever made. Retailing at just under $1400.00 though, the cover charge for this listening party is a little steep.
Pros:
- Exceptional Sound
- High Quality Construction Extremely comfortable for long term use
Cons:
- Not easily portable
- Ambient noise is easily audible No 1/8" adapter for use with portable audio devices

The precision quality of the metalwork and the Alcantara, suede-like, material-covered ear cushions leave no doubt: This is a very special design.

Soundstage to die for...
Spectacular sound and staging, as you'd expect for the price I guess, but they do sound amazing, especially when driven by a good headphone amp, I'm using the Ray Samuels MR-2. SACDs are great, but even regular Red Book CDs are brought to life.
Pros:
- Comfortable
- Durable
- Good Bass
- Great Sound
- Stylish

At IFA earlier in the month I had the opportunity to test a pair of Sennheiser's HD 800s and beyerdynamic's newly-announced T1 headphones, neither of which are your average set of headphones.

Sennheiser HD800 review
These Sennheiser HD800s look a tad ‘conventional' at first glance, but they're very far from being ordinary cans. For starters, they use Sennheiser's most advanced driver tech, a larger-than-usual 56mm diaphragm and a stainless-steel transducer.

The vibrating part of the diaphragm is not a circular surface area but a ring, which is able to set the entire air volume over the transducer into motion..
