As far as I'm aware, that has to be one of the best deals for a new HD 800 S. Even on ebay used it's hard to find them anywhere below that price.
This should be front page.

Sponsored as in the retailer (Adorama) has a deal with Slickdeals to advertise the sale. Whether that means Slickdeals gets a fee up front or a percentage of whatever, it is higher up in "deals" so that it gets more clicks. In this case, you can only get the special pricing through this deal link which presumably gives Slickdeals credit for the sale.

Do not even consider getting the 820. You've been warned. 800S only. Yes, you will need a amp and dac, but people buying these headphones probably already know this.

newb question:
Does HD mean something here or just marketing?
Are these better than planar headphones?
Thanks in advance
I wouldn't say that they are better or worse than planar headphones...they are just different. This model is largely popular for how good and wide its soundstage is. As to my understanding, the "HD" doesn't mean anything in specific. It is just a model name and a continuation from previous models like their HD 600 or HD 650, etc.

Wtf do you need $1800 headphones for? Do they let you hear the secrets of the universe?
I was actually wondering what makes these or any headphones worth this much. I am curious, not trying to troll.

Can anyone compare the Massdrop 8XX models to these two? Are they similar to a 600's / 60XX's comparison?


Edit: Yes, what the previous post before mine just asked lol.

check the posting URL

emailprice=t&sterm=z5XSURz7oxyNUsG3QwQQgypaUkAxUOQ5w2pixA0&utm_source=rflaid62905&utm_medium=affiliate

emailprice=t, that how the price is overwritten to $1199.
Can I set emailprice=1 ?
Now that would be a slickdeal.

After two previous pairs of open back Sennheiser headphones, I don't think I want to do another. At the end of the day I just like a good closed back for some bass, or a pair of good speakers. Seems like a really good deal though for the right person.

I need bass. What's the best for bass?
As noted elsewhere, you'd probably want a pair of closed back headphones. Of the 30+ different pairs of headphones I've had in the past couple of years, my favorite fun/bass headphones are the:

Fostex TH-900
Fostex TH-X00
Fostex TH-909 (open back, but insane sub bass)
Audeze LCD2 closed back (a good balance between bass and clarity)

This $1800 Sennheiser HD800S doesn't allow you to hear secrets of the universe but my $6000 Hifiman Susvaras do. Jokes aside, great price on the HD800S, best gaming headphones you can get for sure due to the soundstage. Secrets of the universe no, footsteps in an FPS, YES!

Would maybe bite at 900 for the 800s just to try them out . Decent deal if you've been wanting them though
