I heard the old Orpheus at a show years ago - 'only' £9,000 they were - but still 6x as much as my car cost! What are these? £51,000? That's 335 times more than I paid for the 560S I was listening to this with....still sounded good though.
Love my focal clear for the intimate reason, i owned the HE1000 Stealth for awhile and compared it to the clear thoroughly, ended up returning the he1000 stealth because i just couldnt get into the music because it was so "wide" sounding. IMO headphones for musical enjoyment should be intimate sounding like the vocalist is whispering in your ears. im tempted to get a HD 6XX/600 but i feel like its just a little less of a focal clear @@csch92
Thanks for the review! This brings back memories of listening to the HE-1 years ago. Thank you for having good quality songs with classical orchestra, Andrea Bocelli, and the female japanese/ chinese female singers. Smiley lee
Thanks for This Epic Test that actually so rare to find on RUclips even a lot of People Just review it without giving the online experience like ths one, once again much appreciate what have done here 👏
It was just someone getting Waked! lol sounds like a gun I had to replay it just to make sure it wasn't the meth addicts that live down the road getting shot by the neighbours lol.
These do sound amazing, as well they should, but it would still be nice to get an A/B comparison to other super high-end headphones(as you do in your other videos) just so we could hear the differences relative to each other, and see if they are really worth an extra $50k or so. I mean, if I had $60k to spend, I think I might buy the Focal Utopias, along with a really good DAC and amp, and a NICE CAR before I bought these, but maybe that's just me.
Why my hd800s is bass cannon now but in a reality this shows every nuance of the music and how lively it can be just so smooth :D Super cool sound demo!
The thing with this headphone is that while you know and hear you are listening to a sound test with other headphones which makes the sound break down, this makes you feel like you are actually listening the song directly on high quality
Listening on my Shure SE846, which basically have subwoofer built in the monitors. Combined with these, that bass is ridiculous. Thank you for this video!
Am I the only one thinking that the music choice is a bit like having McDonald’s on diamond encrusted tableware and utensils, then reading about its food review on a free magazine?
Top of the line. I think I will still rather listen to a violin live than through this though, it's close but not lifelike. Cannot imagine what the best headphones will sound like in 20 years.
You are listening it through your headphones. This demo is compressed by internet and RUclips but still it sound great. It is not made to sound like real they are made to sound good and I can say these sound far better than real life
@@harnoorsingh2866 If you're talking about compression, there is nothing compressing audio waves from an actual instrument reverberating in the air into your ear canals. "Far better than real life" doesn't even make sense. We have different definitions of what makes something "better".
So what, do you have real life orchestra in your home everytime you want to hear it? Of course real life violin sounds better, don't see the point of even stating that like it's some sort of newsflash. You can't hear real violin everytime you want and you can't hear you favorite music anytime you want live obviously.
@@chrysio7 For the price, I expect something better. It's 500x the price of a violin, 100x the price of a nice headphone/speaker, and it will not stand the test of time as technology rapidly advances. And it's hard to drive. If you love music, go to a concert. If you can afford this, you'll be too busy to use this. It's a sneak peak into the future, otherwise a mindless purchase.
@@HXMbamwam Well you are looking it from a "I don't have this kind of money and if I did I would spend it better" perpective. Comparing what you can buy with that kind of money is pointless because these headphones are not for someone who doesn't have literally millions to spare. That concert argument is also pointless. You can go often to the concerts but you can't go to a concert every day, even if you could, I mean c'mon, you would want something that's close to listen whenever you want when it comes to headphones and If someone wants the best headphones, this is it, no doubt, no matter the price. The price comparisons don't count here because if you are looking at it that way you know you don't have enough money to not worry about it. I assume that whoever buys this also has everything else high end when it comes to audio. You are saying like people are going to buy this and have nothing else, like for example some crazy expensive speakers. It would be like me saying buying Rolls Royce is pointless because I can buy a house and a decent car for that money. No one is buying Rolls Royce who thinks that way because it means you are money restricted and whoever is money restricted is not even gonna think about those purchases. Would I buy these headphones if I had 20 million dollars on my bank account? Yes. Would I buy them now if I only had money to buy these and nothing else? Of course not. That's the thing, it wasn't made not for those kind of people, financially.
Makes me wonder what they would sound like through a typical headphone amp. They sound very nice. 60k? If I had it, I would find many other things to spend it on. The low end is quite amazing though and everything sounds extremely smooth. Like others state; it made these HD400 Pros sound better.
ok the timbre is unbelievably good. The bass sounds like it's rumbling, so I can't tell if there's midbass at all or is it just super wide that the bass reverbs. Listening from 1060C planars. You can get this level of separation and bass depth with $300-800 planar magnetic headphones these days. No need to spend $60k.
Are you stating this based on listening to the video itself or have you listened to them yourself? Because based on my experience listening on Sennheiser's Singapore experience booth myself i would say the soundstage and seperation literally depends on what song youre listening to and it goes the same with bass, it doesnt try to enforce "fake detail/seperation" on you and try to push the limits of what is possible in headcan tonality, as i believe the HE-1 is the most tonally fun-perfect headphone thus far.
@@degou3438 The he-1 is not just a headphone, it is an integrated system that includes a dac and amp. It's a great product, of course, but I think there must be a better way to spend big bucks for life.
Yes, from this demo it seems that they are really neutral throughout the whole frequency range, except for sub bass. The bass below 35 hz or so seems to be quite elevated, making the sound 'huge'. I wonder if this is what they sound like in reality, or if this is just the way they come across through this recording methode. They probably sound super impressive in reality.
which is not the case. the He-1 is the best headset ever made. If even a compressed RUclips video sounds fantastic, well, in real life people cried when they heard it.
@@degou3438 realistic is those monitoring earbuds you get for studio purposes, if Cbat by Hudson Mohawke suddenly sounds good then its actually unnatural, which is not a bad thing because harman/dynamic tuning never really was
A me non a impressionato per niente, voci distanti, pochissimo head-stage, bassi profondi ma poco incisivi, gli alti sembrano assenti, la riproduzione della musica classica è un disastro, ci sono cuffie molto migliori.
disaster? hahahaha check it out, here we have the only “audiophile” in the world who judges a headphone based on a RUclips video and doesn't like the pathetic HE-1 hahahahaha. Everything you said is exactly the opposite of what was described by those who have already tested it.
when a headphone test vid makes your cans sound twice as good, you can trust they are impeccable in real life.
LOL - I know right... 🤣
Thank you for making it possible for us to hear it , it`s a real privilege
OMG. Something I will never get a chance to hear in real life, LOL.
I need to find me a Sennheiser boutique or something with one set up. Would be lovely to experience it for even a few minutes
I heard the old Orpheus at a show years ago - 'only' £9,000 they were - but still 6x as much as my car cost!
What are these? £51,000? That's 335 times more than I paid for the 560S I was listening to this with....still sounded good though.
i swear this made my dt 990s sound even better than if i were to just play the raw audio file on them... literally gave me shivers
I'm listening to this on my HE400se and the soundstage is jaw-droppingly huge!
Thank you for making this available here.
he-1 in reality isnt large sounding at all
@@Snxgurwhich is not the point either. it wants you to be a part of the music
@@csch92 agreed, a more intimate soundstage is a more emotional experience, but he said it’s jaw droppingly huge .

THAT SHIT SOUNDS SO DAMN GOOD
Listening to this with AirPods Pro 2. I have never even seen it, let alone listen to the HE-1.

gonna be a pair of DT 1990 for me, then a lot of cocaine and hookers if i had 50k

This sounds just amazing!
比B站音质好太多,大奥胜在震动质量上密度力度极高
I heard many many sound test on RUclips but this one.... WOW!!!
太誇張了,這聲音用破耳機聽也知道非同小可
Ill try them next year in munich!
One day i want to own HE1s 🤤 for now I’m good with my HD800s with custom cable and tube amp.
Sennheiser reigns
大奧確實不同凡響.,聲音太好聽了。
用着XS听,然后前面开始不久我就起鸡皮疙瘩了而且持续一段时间,有种莫名奇妙说不出的感觉,播出的声音就是很特别,突然有一个想法,如果把歌都用这个录制一篇再用普通耳机听感觉也会很有效果
找到商机了哈哈哈哈
ENDGAME !!!!!! could you do a stax comparison please, and list the tracks played thanks.
Just hold google search on your phone up to the video playing. There will be an option to identify the song
@@sleepyrhythms6668 cool thanks
pay 55k? nah I'll just listen to the HE-1 via my airpods. Checkmate sennheiser
LOL
Suatu saat nanti semoga aku bisa membelinya 😁
Thank you for good music al
More music demo for this monster headphone please! You need one to rival Z review's STAX demos. Thank you!
Very very smooth & balance tone
Bass drop at 3:30 is insane.
The thing with this headphone is that while you know and hear you are listening to a sound test with other headphones which makes the sound break down, this makes you feel like you are actually listening the song directly on high quality
Doesn't sound too bad through my AKG K812. Would still recommend them, however after 8 years a successor might be released anytime soon.
Listening on my Shure SE846, which basically have subwoofer built in the monitors. Combined with these, that bass is ridiculous. Thank you for this video!
Horrible combination

@@qupeter1224 No, i think you should go with laptop speakers, those are really crisp and take out the best out of any song.
