Prevailing wisdom suggests that a tube amp works well for taming the treble response of this headphone, but i use the solid sta... Read More

The sound quality of the original line is not good.
The sound quality is just amazing - as described in many other reviews.
Price
The detail is excellent for the price you pay.
I do not know why the price dropped so much.
I'm not sure how or why the price dropped from the initial $999.
Shipping
They are incredibly fast, tight, and controlled throughout the range.
Packaging/appearance
Bought them used had no problems with the headset or the packaging.
Having got a great price on the hd700s, i decided to take the step up from the hd600s.
I have these paired to the e10k dac/headphone amp, they make a nice pair.
Again, switching back and forth between these and the hd 598's left the 598's sounding flat and lifeless in comparison.
Competitiveness
I power these with a smsl dac, which is more than enough to power these, and, for $400, these seem like a great bargain.
I am currently running these off my desktop with a schiit audio magni 2 uber amp and a modi 2 uber dac.
I've not heard more expensive sennheisers of the hd800 line, but those start at about triple the current hd700 price.
A word about equipment paring, i was using a sigma/delta dac from emotiva connected to a schiit asgard2 and that was awesome.

Likely the most comfortable headphone ive worn outside of akg xl pads more so than sennheiser 800 because of the absurd size of 800

Too expensive for most consumers and not the end game like its big brother the 800

I listened to many of my favorite songs with the hd 700s plugged into schiit modi 3 multibit stacked with the schiit magni 3 and i can say the follow statement i have never enjoyed music more than i have now i have heard many of my favorite songs live at concerts but i could not hear the detail that was embedded into the songs as clearly as i have with these hd 700s

There open so not meant for travel unless you dont care about people hearing what your listening to because you have to turn up the volume to drown them out

Theyre obviously great headphones but make sure the sound signature appeals to you before sinking any money into them
