Product description
Sennheiser HD 800 S
The audiophile headphones all others are measured against.
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 exploration of sound
The HD 800 S – redefining the critical listening experience.
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 is possible not because of any one of them, but through the synergy of all of them. Let’s explore.
Reference class open-back audiophile headphones
It has a ring to It
The heart of the HD 800 S and its striking sound is the 56mm Ring Radiator transducer. It leverages the key benefit of a large diaphragm transducer—air displacement—without losing the rigidity that favorably impacts rest and response times.
Solid as a rock
The headphones’ vibration damping chassis and inert headband insert provide complete stability—what you put into the HD 800 S is precisely what you will get out of it. Each transducer is manufactured, tested, and measured to the tightest tolerance to ensure the most dependable performance.
All the World’s a stage
A mesmerizing soundstage that transports you into the recording environment.
This is the result of several key features. The drivers are mounted at a precise angle, guiding the sound directly to the listener’s ears at their natural inflection point. Instead of hearing a sound that forms between your ears, you experience a vivid wash of frequencies and sensory-stimulating transients. When finally combined, the vibration damping chassis, perfectly matched transducer systems and wide-open construction work in concert to provide the most striking soundstage yet.
HD 800 S smash the ceiling for critical listening
Advanced sound reproduction system
Achieving acoustics that are true to the source also requires management of compounding frequency clusters that produce undesirable masking effects. We integrated a patented frequency absorber to reduce resonances that hide extraordinary musical details in plain sight.
An ergonomic treat
Every contact point utilizes ultra-soft microfiber padding, while purpose-built composites reduce weight and unwanted pressure. Each earcup provides dual-axis articulation—the HD 800 S will instantly and effortlessly conform to your unique structure. The result is a remarkable listening session.
Master of immersion
Our standard for streamers.
An open-back masterpiece for advanced streamers (and gamers) who are looking for the best-in-class soundstage and the most immersive gaming experience headphones can provide. Enjoy unmatched detail, natural sound, and supreme comfort with these hand-assembled top-of-the-line audiophile headphones.
