Reply to comment by [deleted] in Spontaneously went into Richer Sounds yesterday to try the HD800s... Anyone fancy giving me £1350? by wiggan1989

Do you have a source for this? Because literally everything I've found online says nothing of the sort.

Well, I just linked a video where someone went back and forth between the HD800S and sticker modded HD8XX and he couldn't tell the difference. So you're gonna have to give some solid evidence to counter it. Also I'm not sure why you're so fixated on me saying that EQ was an option, when I mostly was talking about the sticker mod.

I've done the mod myself, it's not difficult. You don't touch the drivers, so I have no idea where you're getting the idea that it's risky or a lot of work. And if we're talking about used, you can always buy the HD8XX used, which would make it 2/3 the price of a used HD800S and less than the OG HD800.

Some clown tried to tell me the 8XX sounds "trash" and anything you need to EQ is not good. Made no real sense to me, people eq LCD-* and they are regarded as really good headphones. Some people just love trolling
