    HD800:

    Favourite so far was the one with Oyaide connectors, forgot what cable it was. Mundorf and Black Dragon were a little too warm for me, APS recabled with Furutech rhodiums was a great 2nd place. Shockingly good imaging and soundstage.

     

    the oyaide connectors is Moon Audio BlackDragon which is Jojo's favorite cable for HD800

    the other is Mundorf Gold/Silver and SilverDragon if i not mistaken

    there is also Aps with furutech rhodium which contributes the speed and nice deep bass for Hd800

    overall my favourite one is the Gold/Silver Mundorf which is only single ended...

    cant imagine the outcome if it is on balanced......

    very warm, yet surprising retaining the hd800 airiness and good details and superb midbass like hd650....

    mite be getting a new dac maybe modded benchmark or modded lavry da10

    but i still testing the modded benchmark here at my friend's hse....not bad...his benchmark modded sound more richer and lively,natural and more warmer than cold, analytical unmodded benchmark...

    seriously deeply poisoned now..... :sweat:

     

    Only cable guy Eric can answer your question. :shifty:

     

    for staxs ask our good friend MR.Jig for his wide variety of knowledge of se.. (ahem sorry)Staxxxxxxxxxxx :grin:

    the beyer cables used lousy ofc copper cables.....the soldering they use r lead tin which contributes to their high sibliances and distortion...

    uber

    i think u should get rega cdp for yur rigs....the dac is mostly versatile and most ppl used it for multimedia and pc source....

    i dont have any space for cds that y i choose a better dac as a substitute for cdp....

    In short, think bout extra investment u planning for getting a dac....powercord, interconnect and coaxial or toslink cables......$$$

    has a been great experience for me :D

    one of the ppl there were very accommodating and friendly

    from my early impression, hd800 is somehow similar to akg 701 with more better refined highs and lows and with senheiiser soundsignature without any veil

    1. neutral,transparent and less warm than hd650

    2.The highs are very refined than my akg 701 and bass is much more controlled and tight

    3.Comfortable wise = 1 of the best headset i wore during the audition, big, comfortable and very easy on the ears

    4.Weight=of all my 3 cans i owned, these are the lightest headcan i ever wore and doesnt put any stress on my neck

    5.Soundstage= very accurate but less wider due equipment and amps... :D must try with my accoustic revival RR-77 and my powercords for extreme experience :grin:

    6.Speed= I found it to be faster than my hd650 and akg 701 but speed as same as my beyer, but somehow like peanut said still struggling with some complex passage when i played my favorite orchestra music ....amp is not sufficient to drive it yet...

     

    PS.I might get it if i sold all my 3 cans lol :whistle:

    there is no end to it....

    i believe we have maxed the possibilities and potential of our rigs so that adding some other tweaks may or not have any more effect...

    for me i going for balanced and let c wat maxed out single ended tweaks compare to fully balanced rig...

    likewise the telos platinum is something....even better than gold telos.....

    need to add something...heard of the accoustic silk foam foam?

    i believe have subtle effect on yur powercords and even the rcas..

    jus place it on yur distributor inlet connecting to powercords..

    rcas sockets and amp inlet powercords as a ground signal ...more dynamic bass and slightly transparent...

    if u got the irujkanji stuff the foams inside and cover all of it .... more effect...more transparency,smoother low end and very dynamic bass....

    :shocking: all acrolink carbon snakes....and rcas... :drool:

    thanks for the poisoning but havent heard it thus my wallet is saved ...

    well i cannot afford all these luckily.....hehe

    only can afford 004 plugs hehe and maybe new oyaide rcas.... :cans:

    i have 004 plugs and 079 on my powercords..but i prefer the 004 on blacksand on my amp

    079 is more warmer,laidback and more midrange but very slow......not so dynamic bass...

    both of them didnt gave me fatiguing effect or headache for long hours of listening
