HD 820

I actually use my HD820 the most out of all of my headphones in the last 2 months. It has some level of noise isolation while giving perhaps the widest soundstage known in any closed back, as wide as HD700, wider than my HEKSE. I do EQ them. I am not sure why I like them as much as I do actually. I

For long term reliability and comfort I would look at Beyerdynamic first (DT1770pro, DT 700pro x, dt770pro x, dt770pro) and Sennheiser second (HD620s, HD569, hd400pro, hd400s, hd300pro, hd280pro or even the crazy hd820) before any other options. Maybe also akg and audio-technica. Visually though, I

Thank you for your question.Sennheiser HD820 impedance is very high, 300Ω.For vacuum tube amp, such high impedance headphone becomes too easy to drive, because amplification uses hundreds of volts, different from transistor amp operation. So, sound character changes a little bit.Sound tends to be so

Sennheiser HD820 for closed back.Focal Utopia for open back It doesn’t really get higher fidelity than that
