Better than Edition XS?

I have tried almost all Hifiman up to Susvara Unveiled. I am treble sensitive so for me personally the ones that I would consider are: Edition XV (might feel veiled after Edition XS so can safely skip - I own it as I enjoy it for casual listening) Arya Stealth (this is the one I own and love) Arya U

Fiio R2R beneficial?

I use Arya Stealth and Arya Unveiled on Fiio K11 R2R and K13 R2R. Best combination for my tastes. I found both HE1000 Stealth and Arya Organic to be extremely sibilant to my ears. R2R does impact sound and make it feel more analogue/organic/warm. For me it was a necessity to listen to Hifiman cans a

Which ZMF headphones to complement Hifiman 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

I was wondering, it's my first Hifi headphone, Arya Stealth or Ananda Unveiled? the cost the same here

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

Which specific model of Arya or HE1000 should I go for?

That Arya stealth is way overpriced, they go for around 600 new Arya organic same, around 900 new He1000 stealth should be around 1200 or below He1000se is actually priced okay, can probably find cheaper though No idea about unveiled but they’re newer models so I’d assume they would be difficult to

Proper Sound for real intense listening (like I want it, like I need it!)…

Ein Kumpel hatte auch die Eahl zwischen Stax und Hifiman, der hat den Hifiman HE1000. Der ist echt gut, aber auch zu soft für meinen Geschmack. Die meisten Kopfhörer sind ja eher Ohrenschmeichler. Mir fehlt da so der letzte Kick. Hab schon einige durchprobiert. Ab ner gewissen Preisklasse fängts auc

Noob preparing to take the plunge...

I got the Jotunheim 3 with Mesh DAC recently and use it with my Hifiman He1000se. It's genuinely mind-blowing. Only this amp has really shown how detailed, holographic, deep, and wide the sound of those Hifimans can be. Cymbals in particular are a treat. Some of the busiest music I have that used to

Which headphones should I choose next?

I mean, if truly unlimited budget then Susvara x2 (2nd one for me, to make sure they are actually good and you're not only hearing things, y'know) with great amp. If not the Sussy then HE1000se is 2nd greatest I suppose. Again, you can get 2 pieces, that should come out even cheaper than 1 Susvara.

Unpopular opinion. I've tried almost all the new Hifiman models

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

Lyr 5 or Jotunheim 3?

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
