I can't wait for these to come out and hear everyone's audio impressions of them. I currently have a pair of Senn HD800S and i absolutely love them. The high end and treble really shine  and the clarity is unparalleled to any other headphone my ears have heard. The only issue i have with them is the low end is somewhat lacking, but this is of course to be expected to some degree due to the open back nature of the design. Maybe these will be a nice alternative in hopes of trying to chase after more of that sub bass while still holding onto the essence of the HD800 that has made it so special.

my first audiophile headphone was the sennheiser hd 595s. wow. such a day/night difference from the bose i was listening to (which at the time was a major upgrade to the cheap Phillips headphones i had. haha)
then a few years later (& lots of research), i went all out!
i purchased the HD 800/Headroom Ultra Desktop Amp/Headroom Desktop Power Supply & it was sonic nirvana.

the newer hd800S cleans up that treble peak that some ppl were very sensitive too.

Alas, its been a couple years since i listened to my above rig. work & life hav taken over & i haven't been able to embrace my audiophile side sadly. it's kinda slipped away.
