Seems to be amp/dac combo?

Snazzy. Balanced output?

Can Tyll get some review copies?

swt61 would gladly audition a sample from Sennheiser....

"its first headphone amplifier"

um.....

^^ Isn't that an earspeaker amplifier.

The LUCAS/DSP Pro doesn't count either then?

Can Tyll get some review copies?

I'll try.

I guess they are just trying to make people forget about the HEV70...

guess it is just Market(lying)ing

Didn't notice the price the first time around....€1,499 ($1,973). I see they're aiming for the high end market

Someone should have alerted Sennheiser that Blu-Ray won the format war

I thought the same thing when I saw the name!

If VD improves the HD 800, I'm not sure I want either.

Maybe if I shove some felt in it, it will sound good?

Felt laced with penicillin.

gauze laced with strychnine...

I am listening to the HD800 right now. Yeah, I wish it were a tad less bright, but this is a seriously good headphone.

But this is the HDVD 800! It's the HD800, but with more VD!

Ha! Pull the mods out and see what you think.

Toy will ship out Monday, Dinny.

Wait....Is this one modded?!

Pull the fabric mesh covering and you can check it for yourself quite easily

With any luck they'll have a demo model in Tokyo next month I can try.

Yup.
