    One thing I will say about the New HIFIMAN HE1000 Unveiled is the realism and soundstage. The soundstage width, depth, and height were on an otherworldly type, like taking the HE1000se and making it sound like you're physically there. Like, I know the Susvara already does that, but imagine that real sounding guitar and just make the soundstage to the next dimension. Like going 2.5d to full 3d. There's one thing that the susvara does better still. The Realism of the Instruments Timber. The HE1000 Unveiled is 92.5% there for timber. The Susvara is 57.5% there for soundstage. Yes, I really said only 57.5% there. that's how big the difference is for me. It's not a gimmicky type of soundstage either. I hope you will try it one day. It's really a keeper for me. Im getting it the day i get enough money for it. Your reviews are amazing so far. Keep up the good work!

If you are looking for an upgrade to the Sundara, the Nano would probably be a good choice. If money is not an issue, jump all the way up to the Arya Organic $1150.00.

    I have three Hifiman headphones. I first bought the Arya Stealth, then the 1000 Stealth, and a few months ago the 1000SE when it had a price reduction. I have used them with several DAC/Amp combinations, and they all sound great. Currently I have two stacks I use with the 1000SE, a Gustard R26 with a Headamp GS-X Mini, and an SMSL DO200 MkII with the HO200. Honestly, I cannot hear a difference with either stack. As you said, there is no need to spend a lot on DACs and Amps for those headphones.

For even better sound I used the Serenade as a stand alone dac, feeding the Hifiman Goldenwave Prelude. This combinations gives even better bass weight and control.

      @@theheadphoneexperience-wil2250 I guess it’s brand new. I have it:) i’ve been trying to watch headphones reviews to get a sense of what criteria and vocabulary can be useful. I’m a musician/audio engineer.

    It's not endgame for me. It's slightly better than the Arya Stealth but I prefer my £200 Aune AR5000. These RUclipsrs never stop with their hype.

    They are cheap ass headphones that sounds great. Period. They charge premium money for low quality materials and poor QC .., seenheisers are made with cheap ass materials but their QC is superb. In any case they should AMP their materials

    I have the FIIO K7 and honestly, it sounds very good in balanced mode. The balanced sound has better soundstage which is larger and feels like a more in-space presentation. It feels like I'm a bit lost in the music but in a good way. The sound feels more redefined and more emotional. Unbalanced mode doesn't sound far off but every time I compared the outputs, Balanced was always better. The headphone I only used was the HE400se. I volume-matched them as closely as I could and It's probably like a 12% to 7% difference. The 400se is still a boring-sounding headphone because it doesn't have enough bass and other aspects of sound as well but Balanced mode on the Fiio K7 made the 400se punch above its price point.

      Basically, think of Balanced as a more freeform and emotional kind of presentation. Unbalanced is more narrow and standard kind of presentation. Yes, it is possible the 400se feels underdriven on the Unbalanced output but it can go up to more than 120db for 400se so I don't think that's the case. Also, I could imagine what an Ayra Stealth on Balanced would be like because I listened to the Ananda Stealth on Unbalanced mode before. I would realistically guess an 80 - 90 percent difference in Sound Quality for Ayra Stealth on Balanced.

    This was my first amp. I gifted it to my father. Highly recommend for anyone new to the idea that there is more quality to be had beyond expensive dongles. Great little amp!

      I would recommend an amp that can put out at least 3 wpc into 32 ohms for the HE6SE V2. I'm not sure of the power output of the Wells Audio V8, but it does a very good job of driving the Susvara and HE6SE V2.
