[deejay24ion]

what is the music playing in the background ?

[ZEB0V]

You should change the title of this video to Sennheiser HD 800 porno.

[Ryano526]

this gives me goosebumps.

[Doctorsolo94]

I need some help here.

If I buy a HD800 and an Ipod Classic, and I use an Ibasso PB2 Pelican to drive this cans, would it be sufficient? Or do I need more power, lets say, a Lehmann Linear amp?

[yazid3848]

Ive never heard these before but i have sampled the orpheus quite a bit ago and if these even give half of what the orpheus offers they will never be $100 unless the price of the american dollar increases ten-fold, but then again that wouldnt be a real price drop...

[elijah5791]

ATTENTION HD800 OWNERS: If you ever bring these headphones anywhere near me, please be warned that, even though I am a pacifist and abhor violence, I will be forced to kill you with that I may possess these for myself. :)

[iPodkilledMP3]

LOL THOUGHT THE TITLE WAS SENNHEISER HD 800 PORNO

[BennyBenBen7]

I think ignorance would be actually bliss in this situation, cause if I tried those I would just lose it

[Satfgk]

BTW i find this headphone very good for gaming, but expect to spend at least 1000$ on an amp and at least 2000$ on a source (disc-player or DAC if you use computer) to get the most out of these beasts. Hope that helped.

Check out head-fi.org, people there will be happy to advice you.

[Satfgk]

sorry for double post...

[THATS1CK]

give it 10 years and these will be worth $100!

[Satfgk]

@THATS1CK No way they'll ever drop that much. No way...

[tstarkisironman]

@Satfgk they might because if the seller tells the buyer these are 10 years old no one would buy them. It would be 100 bucks but by the most it might be 200 dollars

[Satfgk]

@tstarkisironman A high-end product like this headphone (I own a pair myself) can produce among the absolute best sounds in the WORLD right now. Trust me, the places that actually get to sell these bad-boys are never going to drop the price that much. Just look at the HD 600, they came out a decade ago and sure they've gone down to half the price (I think they're 300 dollars by know) but a company like Sennheiser does not play cheap...

[illtaketheblame1]

@Satfgk what about noise gettn in that from what i heard seems to be its only prob and can i spend under 100 bucks to amp it for games cause 1 dude told me the hd 598s could cause music is easier but these r different????? SOMEONE HELP A KID OUT PLZ

[Satfgk]

@illtaketheblame1 Well what do you mean with noise?

Anyway, these are 300 ohm headphones, which means they require a lot of power to sound good. The HD 598 does not, it can be driven by a portable player. Trust me on this, DON'T buy these headphones if you don't have:

1. A powerful headphone amplifier like the Lehmann Black Cube Linear or the Woo audio 22 (tube)

2. A very good source (that is a good CD-player, vinyl or such. NOTE if you use a laptop, you need a D A converter (dac)

[Satfgk]

@illtaketheblame1 Send me a PM here on youtube if you need more answers, I'll be happy to answer them :)

[LightSpeed91]

audio technica ath-m50's sound exponentially better than these shitty things

[audiohi]

@LightSpeed91

Congratulations, you're an idiot.

[KaiserBecks]

@LightSpeed91 Nice try, but I've seen better trolls.

[oparunz]

even Bill Gates wont buy this shit.

[swifttiga]

Uhh so where do u plug them in if not the iPod or mp3..?

[xLegionPichonx]

@swifttiga to your 1200 bucks HeadRoom Portable Desktop Amp haha

[Satfgk]

@swifttiga To a full-size (expensive) hifi-rig

[apexi909]

Got my HD518 headphones today and I just love these!

[Rivfader17]

I listened to "Stabwound" by Necrophagist on these. My kneecaps shattered, and i loved every second of it.

[reesepuffs81]

They kindaaaaa left out that their $1400

[AdministratorChris]

The only complaint I can find it these are that for the price, there is No Noise Cancellation and it allows sounds to seep in. This is not a personal complaint.

[chrispanama]

Do they use battery?

[lauris47]

@chrispanama of course not.

No serious headphones uses batteries.

Good headphones requires amplifier for that :P

[AimForTheTeeth]

i need me one of these bad boys

[giysettin]

good but to expensive i can,t  buy it

[DeathToTheseWalls]

I'm very satisfied with my $7 Sony earbud headphones.

If I put these on, I would probably orgasm, go into cardiac arrest and seizure all at the same time, enjoying every second of it.

[Satfgk]

@DeathToTheseWalls No, eargasm. ;)

[Satfgk]

@DeathToTheseWalls BTW you probably wouldn't, they are not "impressive" sounding in the way of "fun" or "awesome". They are reference headphones with a laid back, natural, balanced sound, amazing detail and enormous soundstage. With classical they are breathtaking, with Jazz they are so smooth sounding that you'll get goosebumps and with rock they are great, but lacking energy due to the soundstage. Coming from earbuds with recessed treble/mids they'll probably sound boring and lacking energy.

[DeathToTheseWalls]

@Satfgk Not so sure..

I just picked up a pair of HD 595s, a supposedly "flat sounding" pair of cans, and I find them to be lively and fantastic.

[JasonHaskie]

@DeathToTheseWalls - Cheers bud, I have the 595's as well, I love them, but I want to know so very badly how these compare. Do they really sound more than a thousand dollars better than what we have? I must find out.

[DeathToTheseWalls]

@JasonHaskie Indeed, sir. Indeed. You would think the value would start to diminish at around the Sennheiser HD600s or HD650s, but I guess I don't know for sure.

[Satfgk]

@DeathToTheseWalls @JasonHaskie with the HD 800 you need an ultra high-end system to make them sing, high-end is usually not fun, reference sound is about natural, neutral and transparent representation of music. The HD 800 are VERY transparent, so they don't really have a sound. They are like windows on your head that opens up and let your system/music shine right through, with almost no distortions or colorations in their path. Hard to explain with such few letters. :p

[TheFreakINcontrol]

Heard them today, simply incredible. 

[JmasterJr]

@TheFreakINcontrol what would you say about the 595 set? I want some im stuck with my pc 350's! great for games

[TheFreakINcontrol]

@JmasterJr Couldn't tell you man, I've never heard them, you should check out the head-fi forum, they'll be able to give you some info. 

[j0e2]

ich mochte

[MrHot6boy]

will haben !!!!

[Jed9133]

The sennheiser hd 800,the most expensive headphone on earth.

[etherealeyes]

@Jed9133 not even close. Check out the electrostaic headphone market. You can find some that are 3-4 times as expensive.

[evdokimovac]

Вот это Мониторы так мониторы! Наверное весь 60-ти летний опыт работы вложили в них, и и цена у них конечно соответствующая: 44,800.00р. или $1,400.00!
