Sennheiser Gold Hd 820 Closed-Back Headphones
Users say:
Sennheiser's HD 820 and IE 900 headphones are the best of the last products officially made by the company during their 75th anniversary.

Closed-back and open-back headphones both have their advantages. One blocks out external noise and extends bass frequencies; the other releases internal audio for a more expansive soundstage. Historically, it's proven near impossible to get these benefits all at once-but in the new HD 820 headphones, Sennheiser has made it happen. On the outside, the HD 820 features a closed-back case for impressive isolation and bass extension. Inside, Sennheiser's beloved Ring Radiator drivers use glass covers to reflect sound waves into an absorber, where they effectively "vanish," creating a vivid soundstage that feels wide open. Made in Germany, the HD 820 also features OFC cables and gold-plated plugs, handcrafted earpads, and a robust metal headband with an inner damping element for extra comfort, strength, and sound fidelity.
