Sennheiser




YEAH!!!
I was surprised to find this jewel here.
It was after all quite a modest show.
I was even more surprised we could listen to the thing.

I started with the 800. I know that one and I like it.
The 800s was even a little bit better.

And then came the Orpheus 2...
I was not prepared for this.
Okay, you expect it to be good at 55K, but that heavenly and accurate? No way, ain't possible! And yet, it was.
An Aurender was feeding it the bits, and the Senn transformed them into pure joy.
I could say: I don't know if this is the best sound I've ever heard... But I would be lying to myself.

The Sennheiser guys were friendly and humorous.
Of course they knew 99,9% of the people listening to it on the show will not buy it.
But they said: "Suppose you win the lottery next week, you'll know what to spend it on!"
