Well my 802d2's are finally opening up. The bass is present and the mids are definitely sweeter.

Looking forward to receiving the WW cable set and then a 7 day x 24h burn-in.

Default good right out of the box
My New 800 Diamonds sounded good immediately after unpacking them, that must be a good sign
Any improvements over time is most welcome!

I just received my 800 Diamonds 3 days ago, I noticed the mids and highs sounded great right out of the box, they sound even better now 3 days later. The bass is what has improved the most in the last 3 days, out of the box the bass was not very detailed. I have 25 hours on them right now. Straight from the owners manual 'as a guide allow up to a week for the temperature effects to stabilize, and 15 hours of average use for the mechanical parts to attain their intended design characteristics'.
If they continue to improve I will not complain!

Just picked up a pair of 803D2's to replace my decade old 803S's. Can hardly wait for the detail and bass to come forth. I hate break-in.
