Reply to Going from the Sennheiser HD 560S to the HD 800S by Lapralapso
If money is your concern, buy used headphones. Worst case that you don't like it. Sell it back with a small loss + shipping. I have 10 headphones right now, 8 of them are used, never had any problems with them. r/AVexchange is wonderful for this. Just do your due research, look at seller's reputation, posts history, check sold prices of similar items in recent months, etc...
I bought my HD800s used with all original accessories minus the box. No issue at all.
Since I don't have HD560s, I am not qualified to compare them with HD800s. However, I do own HD600, and HD6XX, I think I can give general answer to your questions:
- I would like to elaborate this further: in my limited experience, the deeper I am into this hobby, the more I appreciate the differences in my headphones, I like to change them according to mood or music genres. It's always fun to discover something new in a song when you go back and forth on different set of headphones. Maybe one day I will finally find a perfect headphones that make me sell the rest of my collection, but HD800s ain't it.
Hope this helps, happy hunting.
