Our take on the Sennheiser HD 800 S
The Sennheiser HD 800 S is a wired open-back reference headphone, suited to streamers who care about hearing their mix in detail. At a tracked $1,789.99 it sits at the bottom of a tight $1,789.99 to $1,799.95 range across five points between August 9 and September 7, 2026.
The 56mm ring radiator drivers are the largest the listing says were used in dynamic headphones. Impedance is 300 ohms, so pair it with a capable amp. It comes with a 1/4 inch single-ended cable and a 4.4mm balanced cable. It has no mic. Retailer ratings average 4.4 across 525.
