Side-by-Side Comparison The Sennheiser HD 800 S are a better critical listening headphone than the Sennheiser HD 820. The HD 800 S have a better-balanced sound that is more neutral and even with instruments, more consistent with their bass and slightly more detailed on lead vocals and instruments.

The main difference between the HD800s and the HD820s is that the HD800s have an open-back design for spacious soundstage, while the HD820s have a closed back design for more bass and a more intimate sound signature.Jan 2, 2022
