HE1000se

I have the HE1000 Unveiled, and I also have the Atrium Open, Caldera Open and Verite Closed. IMO it depends on how “lush” you want to go. Here’s how I’d rank them most to least: Atrium - biggest bass— hits hard, super lush, relaxed treble. Night and day difference vs the hifiman. Noticeably slower b

Yea i own the he1k stealth, ive demo'd and borrowed a he1000se many times and preferred the he1kstealth. The he1000se has the best detail and imaging by just a little bit (and like 98% of susvara) but I found it too analytical and bright/uncomfortable treble. The he1000 stealth takes the best dynami

Okay, so I also listened to several interesting HiFiMAN models: XV, Nano, HE1000se, Ananda U, Arya U, and Sundara. I have to say that everyone has their own taste in music, and it’s important for me to emphasize that. The most important thing is to go and listen for yourself. I owned the Nano for a

The headphone amps I had before the Jotunheim 3 were: iFi Zen Can, iFi xDSD Gryphon, the Schiit Vali 3, and recently the Fiio K13 R2R. I thought the J3 would be a modest upgrade to the Zen Can. Wrong. The Jotunheim 3 is blowing my mind, especially with the Hifiman HE1000se. The Vali 3 taught me that

I'll get in the convo because I've used both as well. They are somewhat different. If it was a linear progression you'll always sell the less expensive/technical stuff, but there's always some minor tradeoff. Susvaras have a very nice timbre and an exquisite bass touch that is resolves warmly, and a

The bass is really bad on he1000se imo. ''top tier'' headphone like he1000se should have better bass. Newer Hifiman's corrected that to some degree. There seems to be an effort for it. How is nano compared to he6se stuff ?

I was in exactly your situation a few months ago. I was using the Sundara, which I really liked, and I upgraded to the Ananda Nano.I have to say the upgrade was amazing — with EQ they are perfect. The detail, the tonality, the tight bass — everything was a huge step up from the Sundara. After about

That's a damn good start and you're way ahead of most people. I would EQ them to the HifiEndgame or PEQdb Diamond target and try again, but try a couple different measurements because some of them just aren't representative of how they would measure on your head. Once you get close, do some tone swe

Not my words, but a really great explanation I found I would like to share: “I purchased the Hifiman HE1000SE and the HE1000v2 Stealth at the same time two months ago. I auditioned them side by side daily for two weeks before deciding to return one pair. I was honestly at a stalemate for quite some

So at after some auditioning I am in between HEKSE and HEKStealth. Leaning towards the HEKSE mostly for its realistic portrayal of sound and music. The Arya Organic where just too busy, bright and dynamic for my liking. I would like to share this, not my words, but I 100% agree. “I purchased the Hif
