    @JK47 unfortunately no link, it’s paywalled for now (a grand 1GBP wall), but will become available after a few months.

  Swapping out the worn PM-3 pads for fresh feels like a new headphone. Should boil the old ones for broth!

    If I had boiled the old pads from my HD800, it would have been liking eating @Koth Ganesh.
    
    I'm not a vegetarian, but I have my limits.
    
    And the new ones are quite a lot firmer, which equals being slightly less comfortable. But yes, new pads, new head band: just like new phones.

  RME ADI-2 FS get's you the same DAC and headamp sans DSP for ca. 2/3's of price. http://www.rme-audio.de/en/products/adi_2_fs.php

    ADI-2 DAC isn't listed on the German site anymore. Discontinued?
    
    Edit: Nevermind. It's still listed under 'converters' but is missing on some parts of the site.

    You guys deserve it. Many headphones that could have been useless now get a second life. You bring better sound to the masses for little money with a lot of convenience. All the best!

    Sorry, next time I will check with you guys. Sennheiser seems to be sending mixed messages. Okay, their website is not a reliable source until extra confirmation is present.
    
    Dec 13, 2017
  5. Hrodulf
    My source is the local distributor, who heard it from Sennheiser themselves. His wording was more along the lines - they're about to get discontinued, so think about what you're gonna do.

    Haven't seen the curves yet, but in most technicalities it seems better than HD600/650. Tonality wise it has some problems up high. I need to hear it calibrated, maybe it'll dethrone the calibrated HD800 as my reference.
