    Dianne Reeves, Steely Dan, and Robben Ford are wonderful artists worth checking out (HD 800 or not). Slower genres like jazz, vocals, acoustic, ambient/lofi, orchestral, and big band/live performances are such a pleasure with them.

    Brave Soul - Illenium

    Stargazing - Kygo

    Walk me home - Said the sky

    Taste like cigarettes - Masked man

    Fire Stone - Kygo

    Falling in love - Dennis Kruissen

    Snow - Masked man

    Wishing on You - City girl

    Let me know if any of those scratches your itch!

    Radiohead is a must for any headphone but you probably knew that already. If I had to pick two must-try songs it would be “Detox” by Strapping Young Lad and “The Promise of Snakes” by The Angelic Process. People also bring up the Made in Abyss OST and Death Note OST a lot, and for good reason. They sound great. Especially on the HD800S

    Why Are Sundays So Depressing — The Strokes

    Probably the song that has the the biggest difference between HD800s and any other headphone, in my personal opinion. The guitar sounds so damn good.

    Lots of Dolly Parton’s stuff is fantastic. Nik Bärtsch’s work is stunning.
