Being a serious Orchestral music listener myself I honestly don't know where the huge
appeal for the stock HD800 comes from ! Comparatively, other music genres really hold no
weight whatsoever in deciding what qualities I look for in my listening systems. The only
reason I can guess that the stock 800s work for people listening to this music is they're
satisfied to hear the large picture of an Orchestra playiing with massive macrodynamicss
(artificially expanded) without much real sense of the micro dynamics of the inner Orchestrl
dynamics & staging !
The Macrodynamics created by the playing of the Orchestra doesn't,need the type of "Enhancement" that the HD800's Ring Radiators (the metal rings that sit on the outside of the drivers & the small screens which are held down to the back of the drivers by the screws
passing through the rings & also hold the drivers to the basket) . This part of the headphone
Is now effectively a reverb circuit. He,he,he... No one ever stops to wonder why music,regardless of what it is sounds so huge through the HD800s. I'd gotten rid of these culprits , once this Enhancement Curcuit was gone my wonderfully low noisefloor told
me immediately I was left with tons of inner detail that was being masked by that dopey
artificial "Airness" . I definitely did a double take
