Dual Chamber Absorber System
While the transducers in the IE 800 S are special in their own right, they reproduce your music faithfully with the help of our patented Dual Chamber Absorber system (D2CA). This technology removes the masking effects common to in-ear canal phones. Resonating frequencies typically overpower nearby frequencies occurring at lower volume levels, overshadowing critical details while reducing dynamic range. The proprietary D2CA was created specifically to absorb these peaks, revealing a treasure trove of detail that, until now, has been buried in your tracks. As a result, instrument and vocal presentation is intimate with exacting placement that translates width, depth, and height with ease.
Handmade in Germany
The IE 800 S elevates the standard for both in-ear performance and build quality. The ceramic housing is highly durable and lightweight, protecting its acoustic system regardless of where you take them. From end to end, the IE 800 S is handmade by a specialist using precision-machined components—a combination that makes each IE 800 S unique in origin while still being held to the famous Sennheiser standard of quality.

Now for some points to note:
1) Like any electromechanical transducer, these require a few hundred hours of run-in before sounding at their best.
2) Really only appropriate for high-res sources; for MP3 or CD Res, you will not hear what these devices are truly capable of. Get something cheap and nasty to match source quality...
3) These could not be called raunchy, exaggerated or rock-oriented; but they are great for acoustic jazz or classical. Suits me!
4) Purist, with emphasis on SQ. So no electronic noise cancellation; needless to say, the digital-domain processing this requires screws with SQ, big-time. For decent passive isolation, use supplied Comply-type earpads. These are the best option and acoustically optimal, anyway.
Absolutely phenomenal reproduction on very different genres from Qawwali to Classical Instrumental.
Not ideal for bass heads. This pair is for purists who want to hear the music as the artist intended.
Build quality is exceptional also. Ceramic is a great choice of material.
Best of all, no listening fatigue whatsoever. Magical soothing sound. Specially great for instrumental, classical, soft music.
Although a bit pricey, I will definitely recommend these if you can afford them. Otherwise 1More has great economical options.
