Jérôme, she's cute!
It is good that you learn her to know good sound!
My daughter also loves my cans.

Jérôme.......This photo made me smile. Your daughter looks completely relaxed with the HD800's on her head. You may want to instruct her there is a left and right side to the headphone. She is wearing them reversed.

Thanks Dan !
You made me laugh : I knew you would spot that ! I could have bet all I have on that !
You won't be too surprised to learn that she does not care about that.

Jérôme.......I could have bet money on that, too. .

Actually, she might be interested to know the drivers inside each ear cup are placed at an angled position forward of the ear canal as part of the design concept to create a more 3-D sound stage. By wearing the headphone reversed she is loosing a valuable part of the earphone's performance capability. She may find this information useful.

Dan, they offer it as a bonus after one registers the 'phones. One problem: You have to agree to let them use your information any way that they please! So, I emailed and complained about it--I told them that for $1500, we shouldn't have to sign away our rights, and the tech who responded agreed. Lo and behold, he got it for me without compromising my privacy. I'm not sure they'll do it for everyone, though. (By the way, the graphs come from the German office, not the one in the US.) Here's the link in case you don't care about your privacy!
