Audiophiles are the inspiration for Apple products,
they will buy anything just because of the price.
MoFi controversy is a pretty funny read. That company really perpetrated a massive scam on audiophiles.

If you want the most insanely wide soundstage you've ever heard these are the only way to go.

I assume this promo code does not also work on the HD 820's?

I think these HD800S headphones were on sale many places a couple weeks ago for something in the $1300-1349 range. (at the same time Adorama had them for $1149.). This is a pretty good price for these headphones.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank Tachy

I am not sure why people insist on shooting down higher priced quality products on SD. They can still be deals if available for a much lower price than usual, and yes, some people do like buying a quality product and are willing to pay more. And then there are those that always just shoot it down because it does not contain some feature that it was not supposed to contain…..like….for example a microphone. It also does not include a refrigerator. These headphones are intended for listening to audio. Not answering phones….not gaming. These are not $300 noise cancelling headphones or gaming headphones for your PS5.

My Sennheiser headphones that I purchased in 1975 just stopped working 2-3 years ago. I am not saying these will last that long…but I would bet that 95% of them will still sound great long after your $200-400 bluetooth headphones, which are only rechargeable a finite number of times stop working. It is up to the buyer whether they are worth the difference in price.

not to mention, in 10-15 years……one may be on the second or third bluetooth headset…….and the person who buys these, will likely still be using them….or if they so choose, can sell them on ebay for a significant percentage of the original price.

Quote from TakeMeToYourDealer :
No microphone?
If you are paying 1100 for a set of headphones, surely you wouldn't want to record yourself on the 2 dollar mic that combo sets provide - you obviously would need a Lauten Audio Clarion FC-357 or better.

Not saying these aren't good entry level headphones because they are. But the Orpheus blows them away.

And you know this from personal experience? Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)
