Today I tried out Sennheiser’s HD 800 S and the sound was so good, I didn’t know how to mentally and physically process the experience, which ultimately made me laugh intermittently. The customers and clerks at the store looked at me, of course.
The verdict is not what you think though 🫤 they were AMAZING at acoustic music such as jazz, Broadway, bigband, classical and even some pop (Paramore’s later albums), but I have heard better headphones for rock and metal. And it’s not some sort of flatness either, because flatness/neutrality is exactly what I’m looking for in headphones because I want to be able to hear every single intended and unintended sound alike. It was something else that rock and metal were lacking with these. 🤔

This is adorable and it makes me want to buy those so I can “eargasm” with you.
