The Perfect Companion to the HD800S
This headphone amp and DAC by any measure is excellent. It pairs extremely well with the HD800S to the point where it feels like a miniature HD1 Orpheus rig. It keeps the analytical flatness of the HD800 true while allowing you to use the optional balanced cable for those headphones which is a true...
Pros:
- Great sound 4 balanced outs at once are possible Very easy to use and set up
Cons:
- Pricey Large Only one unbalanced output

Sennheiser HDV 820
Two words: Punchy + authoritative. That's how music sounds coming out of this thing. Low end has a nice snappy grunt to it. Highs are clear and concise. Mid range is natural. I listen to mostly prog rock and metal: Tool, TesseracT, Karnivool, etc.
Pros:
- Sound quality: Punchy
- authoritative
Cons:
- Price: A bit expensive for what it is

Capable but with a small DSD playback bug
The Sennheiser HDV 820 is a beauty to look at and it's very easy to use. The amplifying part is very well done, making it worth the dollars. The sound is quite satisfying, though not that superb (when compared to Chord Hugo 2 or even Chord Dave).

Sennheiser HDV 820 DAC / Headphone Amplifier
C onfession time. I usually don't expect much from headphone manufacturers when it comes to building their own amplifiers. I've never particularly liked any of the amplification offerings from companies like Beyerdynamic, HIFIMAN or Fostex.
