Reviewer score 30% (normalized by Neofiliac)The Sennheiser HD 820 are comfortable, sound good and have a low latency wired connection. They block a bit more noise and do not leak as much as the HD 800 S so you can use them in more varied office environments. Some audiophiles will appreciate the deeper bass of the HD 820 and the relatively large soundstage for a closed-back design.
Pros
- High-end and durable build quality
- Decently well-balanced sound
- Low latency and decently long audio cable
Cons
- Bass is prone to inconsistencies across multiple listeners
- Mediocre-at-best for noise isolation
