One for the audiophiles out there. I bought 10 personally.

Also on sale at Sennheiser if you'd prefer to buy them direct - only costs a dollar more for the privilege.

    These weren't well reviewed.

    HD820 has very bad reviews, I have not seen a single reviewer like these.

    • And I agree with the reviewers, underwhelming and doesn't give you the euphoric feelings when listening to higher end headphones.

    I prefer my og HD800 over these. If I want a closed-back at this price range I'd go for Z1R.

    i'm going to buy these once the sale ends and they go back to full price because i'm a real audiophile

      good choice, I tested and compared, and the sound quality for discounted model is lacking a bit of detail and bit more distortion in the lows/bass, if you want the full spectrum of audio, you need to pay the full RRP price for it.

  • will wait to buy a stolen pair on Gumtree or Facebook to replace my HD600 ….

    I get a migraine if my golden ears are subjected to anything below these base level cans.

    Thanks, this will be great for the kid's iPad on car trips.

  • HiFiman Arya all the way.

  • Happy with my HD800.

  • If you're a gamer, the one you want is HD800s and not this.

    any reason this is so expensive.

      Market positioning. It will however have to fall in price or be discontinued if negative reviews keep coming.

  • These are nearly as bad as the hifiman audivina and only slightly better than the sundara closedback.

    The regular HD800S is good, and the closed-back HD620S is ok.

    I would unironically wear the JBL 710BT/720BT over these, having heard both.
