- Can't find a local headphone store to audition?
Want to compare different headphones side-by-side?
We will be making a series of headphone/earphone audition videos to help you find your best sound, and possibly save you some money from blind buying. If there is any IEM/Headphone/TWS buds that you wish to hear, subscribe and leave a comment! We also plan to include DAPs, Amps, DACs and cables comparison in future videos.
All tracks are recorded using professional artificial ears and compensated by the Harman Target 2019 (2018 for for Around-ear/On-ear), so using an earphone/headphone that sticks to the target curve (for example the AKG N5005) will reflect a more precise result. Video can be used to compare the general timbre of headphones, but what you hear WILL NOT sound exactly the same to the real products due to different playback devices used, and inevitable distortion during recording process.

Final 8000 Pro is the winner for my ears...
Did not know that Caldera ia this warm.I just found your channel right now and cant wait to see all the videos haha Great content, mate!
Oh, it's amazing. It's a very rare clean test sound.
It's very similar to the feeling I had when I visited the listening shop.
Thank you for the sound experience.
Glad you like it!
Really stunning comparison. I loved different aspects of all three. I would love to see a demo/comparison of the ZMF Atrium, Verite and perhaps LCD's headphones.
Caldera is this chill bliss, It's those warm cup of coffee and warm slippers, on a cold winter morning kind of feeling.
Wow! not an owner, but I have auditioned the d8000pro a few times and the sound here resembles what i heard! Caldera sounds great too, but ofc it would be different in real life
Sennheiser still kicking ass, although I think I'd prefer Caldera. But I love how voices sounds on HD800... 9:00
A suggestion: if you can, there's Caldera Closed coming in this mid-year, it would be nice comparing the Open and the Closed version !
Thanks for this ! Your channel is awesome !
Great suggestion. I actually tried the closed at CanJam and it's quite good. Will see if I have any chance to make a video of those two.
Thank you for sharing.I love ZMF's wood material, but it sounds too warm to me. I like the bright and clear sound of D8000, but I cannot afford
It would be nice to have D8000 Pro and Caldera. They cumpliment each other very well!
This sold me on the Caldera! That you so much for posting this!
Vocal on D8000pro and HD800 are clearer cleaner. ZMF Caldera sounds like muddy when comparing to other headphones. I think the vocal on Sennheiser HD800 sounds realer than other two.
HD800 sounds the worst. The treble distorts and the clear lack of sub bass and mid bass is too apparent. D800 Pro sounds great, seems to have a lot of energy in sub bass. Caldera just sounded so spacious. I would definitely have to listen to D800 Pro and Caldera to see what I'd like. Listened on SendyAudio Aiva and GL2000 double magnet.
HD800 was useless in here and to my surprise Caldera sounds boxed compared to D8000
Es ist mir völlig unverständlich warum man für diesen Vergleich den alten HD 800, und nicht den neueren HD800s herangezogen hat.
I bought the caldera recently. As good as the effort is, Caldera sounds very different than what's presented here. It's more of a relaxed sound in person with a lot of width and not as much (still decent depth). The video has a very muddy sound for Caldera for whatever reason
I also own the Caldera and it sounds quite close to the video. Maybe try to follow the instruction in the video by using a harman sound iem (I'm using my N5005 btw).
Nice! What DAC and amp did you used for these demos?
Ares 12th-1 and SPL Phonitor X
2 not much better than my gaming headset
HD800 (s) is so trash harsh... I dont understand about hype for it. its worst HP ever
With the right equipment and right music it's one of the most epic sounds I ever heard.
But it is fatiguing to listen to.
Listening to this on my Susvara, the audition sounds nothing like my Caldera xD
