It's a review from 2021. It's an old model, not new.There isn't?
Maybe someone tries to clear it's old stock.

Coming from the DT880s(250ohm)...I'm torn between these three end game cans(HD 800 S, DCA E3, HE 1000SE). Which should I get?

Yeah point noted. Well, anything that can mimic or simulate the "Concert Hall" effect that my vintage Yamaha RX-V493 receiver delivers is what I'm essentially after. I know it can be done via software, but I haven't found a reverb or soundstage vst plug in that can perfectly duplicate that concert hall effects from that vintage receiver. So we'll see.
Unfortunately we don't have measurements of the Tungsten here or in oratory's list of measurements. But there are measurements of the Tungsten on Squig.Link and a review from the guy that made the measurements. A funny thing is the Heddphone Two GT is mentioned in the review too.

The 3D effect of the ifi will also differ from the one in the Yamaha.

Yeah I accept that. But I should find it to be a cool effect to play around with, nonetheless

That's interesting.Thanks for those links I'll check it out.
A refurbished Sennheiser HD800S is actually available in the Sennheiser Outlet shop for 1000€. If you are interested you have to be quick.

Lol.
I played with one of the big desktop models (the cheaper one without the heat sinks) and also the little portable one. They had a few TOTL headphones to use with them and I instantly went for the Meze Elite as it's my favourite headphone. The ELISA effects were very impressive, I have to say. Build quality was superb and very nice ergonomics all round, especially on the portable one.
Here's the rub. I then went straight over to the Meze stand to plug in my DAP to the Elites. Just as before, the Elites sounded glorious to me. As someone who doesn't use a desktop set up, this is another massive tick in the box for the Elites.
Btw, I saw you mentioning Tungstens earlier. I've listened to the Modhouse Tungstens via a beefy desktop setup at CanJam ( can't remember the set up exactly). You won't be driving those with a DAP, that's for sure!, lol.
Will be very interesting to hear how you get on with your Hifiman headphones. Hopefully you've got something that you'll be very happy with.

the tip rolling rabbit hole
LMFAO! I just changed my discord username to "the tip rolling rabbit hole"
Anyway I'm about 4 days into my HEKUs and they're just...*gasp*...sublime! A touch on the bright side and the bass while good, isn't as deep as my $50 Sennheiser CX 300S IEMs, but the detail and soundstage is unparalleled. Rapture by Anita Baker sounds, well...rapturous!
Really shocked by how much better my Senny CX 300S's sound with this new ADI-2 PRO/iCAN Sig combo. NGL kinda makes me wanna go down the IEM rabbit hole.

Great stuff! Pleased to hear you're happy with what you went for.
That Anita Baker track (and album) takes me right back! I only ever had it on cassette and haven't listened to it for years. I'll have to rediscover it via streaming I think. Loved her voice and had a bit of a crush on her at the time, too.
Happy days!
