NOTE - these headphones are brand new, however originally the packaging was damaged when received from Sennheiser. It now comes in a wooden protective box vs the dense cardboard box the HD800s originally comes in. The outer cardboard sleeve is slightly knocked and torn (since a replacement for that couldn't be sourced). A slight discount has been applied.

The audiophile headphones all others are measured against, our HD 800 S doesn’t just raise the ceiling for critical listening—it smashes right through it. Combining the care devoted to a handcrafted instrument and the precision of modern manufacturing, the HD 800 S lets you explore your entire music collection from the inside out.

The HD 800 S demonstrates over 75 years of audio expertise, redefining the critical listening experience. After launching its predecessor—the HD 800—we accepted a self-imposed challenge to completely disappear from the last link in the audio chain. Our goal was to provide acoustics so immersive that your awareness dissolves into the creator’s perspective. On their own, each component of the HD 800 S is world-class. The signature sound of the HD 800 S is possible not because of any one of them, but through the synergy of all of them.
