Why This Is Here

The HD800 S is a headphone people talk about for one reason: the soundstage. The 56mm ring radiator driver creates a sense of space that open planars approach but rarely match. It rewards good recordings and exposes poor ones.

Who It's For

Experienced listeners with a dedicated listening setup. Not a first headphone. Best driven by a serious amplifier.

This is dream studio territory. Wider soundstage than anything else at any price, insane detail retrieval, incredibly comfortable. If you're doing mastering work or your livelihood depends on hearing everything, this is where you end up. They're analytical to the point of being almost clinical—not fun for casual listening, but that's not what they're for. Need excellent amplification and a treated room to really shine. Overkill for most music production, but if you need it, you know you need it.
