I recently reviewed a pair of HiFiMAN HE-500 headphones and I thought they were the best thing I had ever heard in my life. The best headphones I’ve ever heard before them was my Beyerdynamic MMX-300 headphones which were amazingly good but not HE-500 good. I decided to push things a little bit further and order up a set of Sennheiser HD 800 headphones which are considered the best headphones in the world by some audiophile reviewers.
In this video I compare them to the HiFiMAN HE-500 headphones since it would not be fair to compare them to the MMX-300’s since they are not even remotely in the same class. My findings were actually pretty surprising and I found that both cans have a lot to offer so I plan on keeping them both and using them for different things.
I also played some Battlefield 4 open beta – BF4 – with these headphones just because what other Audiophile is going to blow this much money on headphones and play video games. ME THAT IS WHO! And I must say the results were breathtaking, it’s hard to capture this on video but take my word for it when you enable Virtual Dolby 7.1 the space feels huge and the gun shots sound so real it’s unreal.
Overview
More than 60 years of ingenious headphone engineering has been applied into the new HD 800. Incorporating Sennheiser’s most advanced driver technology, these open, circum-aural dynamic stereo headphones redefine what reference-level audio is all about. You will form an altogether new height of sonic perspective as you experience a high-fidelity natural hearing experience. Do take note that presently, no other manufacturer has been able to come up as close as the HD 800 in replicating the basic acoustic conditions of natural hearing.
Matching these headphones’ reference-grade audio performance is their striking and visually effective industrial design. Premium parts have gone into their production – the transducer is encased by a precision material made of stainless steel. The earpads are handcrafted from a high-quality microfiber fabric. This material is extremely comfortable to wear and easy to maintain. The headband and headphone mounting utilises the most advanced development from the aerospace industry. In terms of connectivity, these headphones utilise specially-designed, four-wire, high-performance connections with Teflon insulation.
Truly, the HD 800 are a glorious success and have become a pioneer in headphone development.
