    I was super bummed when the JAR HD800 loaner tour was cancelled before I could hear them.

    @Failed Engineer, have you heard any other JAR modded headphones?

    I've heard any JAR mod has been nothing short of a revelation / come to Jesus moment.

    @zonto I also have a JAR580A which my wife has stolen from me for her office but I haven't gotten her to bring it home yet for a JAR580 shootout. Haven't listened to it in a couple months (and not on the Copenhagen) but from auditory memory my preference is likely strongly towards the B version for it's more open feel.

    @Huhnkopf I'm curious about the JAR800 but maybe suspect the BP800 might be more up my alley. I've always been more of a 580 type than the 800 or 6-series. I'm going to try for a few months to get a BP800 and then if failure get my ears on the JAR800.
