Axel Grell better be testing every single HD800 for that price ; ) But honestly youre one of the companies that make me proud to be a German. Quality, Continuity, Excellence. Every time i buy a Sennheiser product i expect greatness, yet every time i listen to Sennheiser i hear perfection and character. My first headphone was a Sennheiser and a Sennheiser will probably be my last. Hopefully many years from now. :)
