Hi, I’ve currently owned the Sennheiser 660 S just shy of a year now.
With that being said, I told myself I would go for the Sennheiser 800 S.
Don’t get me wrong, the 800 S sounds amazing but strangely enough it just made me appreciate my 660 S even more. I feel like the 660 S has better mids and more clarity. I was also underwhelmed by the soundstage. I think I might have had too big expectations for the sound stage where it would have felt more “speakerlike”.
What do you guys think about this? Shouldn’t I be preferring the 800 S. I’m kinda confused by all of this.
Thanks!
Whenever you get new headphone, they will sound off due to your brain being trained to like your last set. Use the HD-800S for a few days by themselves, THEN compare the two headphones.
