    How long is HD800S listening fatigue lasting?

    First time ever I got listening fatigue with a Headphone. Listened at -35db with Auto Ref on with my RME ADI 2 DAC FS But listening fatigue still strong after 2 days. Wished I never tried HD 800 S. Usually I listen with DT 770 Pro 250 Ohm at -27.5 dB max depending on the Song and never any issue.

    Replicate imagined speaker sound to headphones. (With Impulcifer)

    Hi. I live in South Korea, and I enjoy exploring and studying various audio information from all over the world. I use a translator. I'm sorry the sentence wasn't smooth. I used the speaker set up in the in-room and was quite satisfied. But I had no choice but to dispose of the speaker because...

    Budget-conscious balanced DAC (USB) for A90 + HD800s?

    I am looking for a balanced DAC for A90 + HD800s. I don't need any features besides just getting the best out of HD800s. Won't be connecting two systems to it, no MQA, no Bluetooth, etc. I will be using USB only and then just whatever interconnect I need to connect the DAC to A90 via balanced...

    DAC for HD800s & A50s - anything else except D50s?

    I am looking for a Dac for Hd800s and A50s amp. Is there any reason to look at anything but D50s? I am already EQIng the HD800s so I don’t need Adi-2 or anything with built-in EQ as I would prefer to use software for that anyways. Also don’t want to spend more than $250-300 used

    [Sold]: Sennheiser HD800S (Perfect Condition)

    [Sold] Asking $1000 USD + buyer pays shipping. These are still the best (and most comfortable) open back headphones I’ve ever heard, especially with DSP filters applied as posted on the HD800S review thread. I just don’t really get a chance to use them much. Headphones are still in perfect...

    Apple lightning to 3.5mm or native headphone jack?

    I have an iPad Pro 12.9 (2015) and I want to use the HD800S with it. It has a headphone jack and I can also use a lightning to 3.5mm adapter (not the USB-C to 3.5mm adapter). 1) Without an external dac, using the Atom with it will be double amping right? Is that bad? 2) I know the USB-C...

    I am new to the audiophile arena and need some advice/recommendations on an amp/dac for my AKG K7xx (Q701) and potentially HD8xx when that comes out. From my understanding, OTL tube amps or "warmer" amp/dac combos are best for the HD800s, but I'm looking to stick with solid state and have...
