Welcome to my Auction.... You are bidding for my much loved and treasured Sennheiser HD800 Headphones. In outstanding condition This stunning pair of 300 Ohm headphones are an open back design with 56mm diaphragm stainless steel transducers that are angled to the ear and to me, are more like listening to a pair of HI End Speakers on your head as opposed to a pair of headphones. For the price these units are likely to sell for, believe me, they will be a HI END HIFI AUDIOPHILE BARGIN as there are a HUGE amount of accessories also included in this listing!!!!! They have a solid metal/plastic construction which is built to last. They have a beautiful Metallic Silver Paint job to compliment the Black velour material used throughout their design. As expected from a high end pair of Headphones, they are exceptionally comfortable with plenty of space around even the largest of ears... One can easily wear these units for hours without tiring and they do not draw attention to themselves. They are fully adjustable (easily accommodating Gollums Head) and there are two tilt and pivot hinge points on each ear cup to ensure a tight flexible snug and comfortable fit. As far as performance goes....In a word, they are Absolutely Stunning...they look as stunning as they sound....especially when paired with the complimenting and capable equipment such as a DAC (also included). These Headphone a fully upgradable as they use a duel twist pin connector on eachear cup. The cable can thus be unplugged and upgraded to a whole variety of HI End cables from Balanced left and right £1000 variations to 925 Sterling Silver interconnect style terminations. These upgrades again will only be warranted depending on your partnering equipment, but as always upgrade with your ears and not your wallet. Even the Ear cup cusions and head band can be upgraded to after market alternatives (Leather/Velvet )if you have the budget. The more sugar one puts on anything...the sweeter it may be....? Perhaps Condition I have owned these high end units from Brand New and have only used them on the weekends and this shows in their condition. Obviously I have had them for a while now and naturally there will now be signs of use (I have had a close inspection and found nothing, but I didn’t exactly use a magnifying glass) but I would say, that they are in outstanding condition, not quite MINT but certainly not far off. (9.5/10) These units definitely don’t have chipped paint, and corners scuffed and worn like every other unit I have seen on Ebay. When you receive these and once you have swapped out the replacement parts that I have included, you will not be far from a Brand New item experience. No dust, no grubby marks, no scratches, no odours, no hairs or any second hand signs and certainly no Audible distortion. Even the included connection cables/adaptors are near Brand New.(The replacement 3m cable in-fact, is actually sealed and Brand new and Genuine Sennheiser HD800 replacement cord) The drivers are spotless and dent less, the metal work and plastic is clean dent and scratch free....the edges are crisp (only one half mm nick on the edge). NOTE: The ear cups are old now, but I have two Brand New pairs included (4 cups in total)with the same beautiful Velvet type velour. The head band is worn out also and flaking, but again, I have a Brand new piece included. Both these items are an exact replacement with the same hi quality velvet valour and it is a perfect fitment (when I tested it upon its purchase). The 3m Wire is also now damaged, but again, I have included a Brand new Genuine 3m Sennheiser cable - the only difference is the new cable has a black Metal plug, and not Silver, but they are all Genuine Sennheiser parts. I have included the old wire as to someone- the metal plugs are worth something. I really don’t think there is another pair out there in better condition - please have a close look at the images as they speak for themselves, and I am sure you will be able to judge for yourselves. The Driver condition is perfect with no distortion and there is certainly no blown drivers. Play them as loud as your ears can handle but make sure you switch the DAC Power Gain to 12DB from 6. So also included is.....a Headphone DAC....a GREAT one......fully loaded infact.....good enough to use with my £4000 Denon X8500 Processor....( The purpose of comparison isn’t for show...its is to demonstrate how flexible this Baby DAC is.....please remember, this is a £150 Dac, Not a £3000 DAC which is actually what you need to achieve hi fidelity to compliment these headphones)..... The Fiio E17 ALPEN DAC is in very very good condition, still has a screen sticker protector in place (with a spare in the original box as well as all accessories) and has an amazing set of features... - Solid CAST steel in Black.Very heavy and Robust in feel...definitely not aluminium. - Oled Screen, which is bright and clear in sunlight. (YES...I once took this setup out on the train..... Dont do that.....EVER....) - Mini Asynchronous USB input (for connecting from you PC USB. - Is an Asynchronous DAC so it will call files from your PC & then decide on up-scaling them - When plugged into PC, is recognised as a Sound Card automatically.(beyond my knowledge) - Accepts files upto 24-bit/96Khz and excel at presenting Flac Music Files (esp Superman II) - If using 24-bit/192kHz Files, then youll need to use the units dedicated Digital input, using a coaxial cable and the supplied adaptor. - If using Optical input then Bandwidth limited to 96kHz (many QED optical cables included) - With this DAC/Portable amplifier, you can take the feed from another source such as a CD player and use the Fiios internal DAC before passing the music into an amplifier or straight into a pair of Active Speakers. - There is plenty of literature available on line on how best to use this massively featured DAC. - There is also a 3.5mm Jack so one can plug into a Smartphone or Mp3 player and use the Fiio as a basic headphone amp. - There is Treble, Bass and Balance control (+/-10DB on all 3) which makes a huge difference - Most importantly, this unit has an Amplifier Power Gain of 0, 6DB and 12DB which is crucial when using a power hungry pair of 300 Ohm headphones. I found using the 6DB setting to be ample for very loud music listening. - The DAC is super simple to use and all the cable and connector and adaptor are all included as are so many different QED branded Cables... Individual Freq Response... As you may be aware, each item (speaker or amp) has its own unique Freq response...This unit dips down to 14 Hz and the Serial number on the bridge of the unit can be typed into the Net so you can examine this units Exact unique Freq Response and balance details and final quality report, In-case there are some Die hard Audiophiles out there that want a particular sound signature. (This realm can get all too silly very quickly....just let your ears take in the sound and your soul interpretate the music....dont be so analytical....it will eventually spoil Your ability to enjoy music.... same applies to Image quality......) What included - This listing is a full bundle with many included accessories and bonuses... - Headphones - Headphone Storage Box with silk/velvet lining. Box is cushioned and plush with hard outer case. - Original outer cardboard box - Original User Manuals for Headphone. - Original Manuals for the FIIO ALMEN DAC - Brand new ear cups x 2 pair so Four units (simple needs to be fitted) - Brand new Genuine head band (simple needs to be fitted) - Brand New Genuine 3m Cable in Black Gold (Needs opening) - FIIO E17 ALPEN Headphone amplifier and DAC - Genuine GRADO 6.3mm to 3.5mm headphone convertor/adaptor. - Genuine QED female 3.5 jack to RCA interconnect adaptor for use with hi fi system - Genuine QED 3.5 to 3.5 1m cable - Genuine QED Performance Optical cable with toslink adaptor included 2m - A second Genuine QED Performance Optical cable with a different type of toslink adaptor toslink 3m cable. - Another phone jack (6.3mm) - Apple Iphone 3.5 female phone jack convertor for use with apple products with out headphone out. To be honest, I am getting rather lost in all the accessories so please have a glance at the Images. As I am sure you can gauge, this listing is for a proper piece of Hi End Kit and you don’t need to be an Audiophile to own it or enjoy it but, you DO really need to know your stuff with connectivity, and how best to compliment this item with respective high end Equipment. Yes you can use it with you Premium PS5..... but obviously it deserves SO MUCH MORE....Think FLAC files as the bare minimum.... Review This unit was used with a FIIO E17 ALPEN DAC (included) and my 205 Hi End OPPO and simply put the sound was stunning. Open, crystal clear. Deep deep detail with instrumental separation on par with high end Hi Fi systems costing circa £10k easy, especially with my OPPO 205. The soundstage is very wide and very deep with a spacious feel. The Bass is fluid and textured. Treble is high and sparkling and the decay/reverb of instruments is beautiful and captivating. The sound is simply sublime and if you upgrade the Dac to something in the region of the £3400 Sennheiser HD800D DAC Amplfied, it becomes breathtaking..... simple as that. If you know, you know. I hope this listing captures what you are bidding for. As you can tell, I do not want to sell these, but the new owner will fall in Love instantly, as did I. I really cant see myself spending £2k on the new HD800-S and then another £2.5k for a decent DAC.... but these need to now go to a New Home where IF you have the music collection with the right setup....you will be that much closer to music Nirvana... Happy Bidding, and of course all your questions are most Welcome. If you need additional detailed and specific images that is absolutely fine. I want to keep the listing as a UK listing, and collection is most Welcome but this item will be delivered via Fully insured Postal so understand that this will alter the postage where by I will send you a revised invoice. Remember, and rest assured, you are purchasing from a reliable, and fair Ebayer with 100% feedback and I want nothing more, than for this transaction to also be a Present and confidence inspiring process.... Paypal, Bank Transfer, Cash, collection, Tracked delivery, addition pictures - all is fine. There are of course no returns on this item so bare that in mind. I have recorded all the Seriel numbers so swapping out parts will not work well for anyone ;O). If you want to test these babies, please feel welcome to make an appointment BEFORE the listing ends and bring your equipemnt. There will not be a GRAND tour of anything else, nor this unit, nor my HIFI or Cinema room.... the demo will be a quick 2-3 minute venture.....(in the past some people felt it was normal to demo a £2K amp for hours.......) Delivery/postage Depending on where you live, your item will be delivered via Private Courier but most likely Royal Mail Tracked/signed for and fully insured. Happy bidding Ladies and (most likely) Gentleman.
