Sennheiser HD800

Top-notch engineering and build quality; highly accurate sound; super comfy over-the-ear design; detachable headphone cable.
Features and design
The HD 800s' striking design sets them apart from every other headphone model on the market. But it's not just a styling exercise; the large earcups were designed to place the drivers farther away and slightly to the front of the listeners' ears than was possible in smaller designs. The precision quality of the earcups' plastic, metalwork, and the microfiber ear cushions certainly feels luxurious. The HD 800s perfectly distributed their 330-gram weight on my head, and ear pad pressure felt just right. The headphones are supremely comfortable.
The HD 800s' patented doughnut-shaped transducer measures 56 millimeters across; Sennheiser claims it's the largest used in a modern headphone. It's interesting to note that the vibrating part of the diaphragm is not its circular interior but its outer ring. The design is said to produce less distortion than conventional drivers. sennheiser hd 800
