    Wireless LE (brown): store.hifiman.com/index.php/s...
    The Hifiman Svanar is a luxuries looking IEM but does the sound match the price tag? How does the Svanar compare to the ThieAudio Oracle mkii and Kinera Nanna Z? Are the wireless JR and LE better value?

    I am not a professional sound engineer, producer, musician, or vocalist, etc. I have not done any scientific research, measurements, or in-depth testing of any kind; just my own listening, comparing and internet reading/research. I have limited, real-life experience with recording, mixing and mastering gear. I have been involved since my teenage years with various churches as an amateur sound booth technician.
    Please take these thoughts, opinions and reasonings as just that, my honest audiophile thoughts, opinions and reasonings.

    Nice, HONEST review, David (although your pronunciation of the Swedish word, Svanar, needs work). ;)

    how does the DaVinci X stack up to these and have you heard the HBB Jupiter Subtonic Storm or Canpur CP622B as im eyesing them all or the X and id like to know how they stack up

    • @TheHonestAudiophile
      @TheHonestAudiophile  3 месяца назад

      Da Vinci X is more technical, has more connection to the music, in my opinion is significantly better in all areas. I've not heard the Subtonic Storm or CP622B.

    • @carlosnazario1170
      @carlosnazario1170 3 месяца назад

      seems atm the Canpur CP622B and Subtonic Storm are the rage at canjam id love to know how the X compares. SHould be something to look forward to in the future.@@TheHonestAudiophile

    Almost sounds like over all you prefer the OH700VB?

    I’m sure you can buy adapters for it? Maybe? lol I’ve seen adapters for many things, but I haven’t searched for this one.

      It's just that at US$2000, you shouldn't have to.

    It would'nt be a HiFi man without the meh cable.

    Thanks for the review, yup, too expensive.

    $2000 for a single dynamic driver of unknown size or pedigree is patently ridiculous and is obvious hubris on the part of Hifiman. The wireless - I don't know about you but most folks in this hobby typically DON'T buy anything named "Jr."
    Thanks for a very good critique. I generally agree with your assessment.

    • @TheHonestAudiophile
      @TheHonestAudiophile  4 месяца назад +1

      I totally understand. Yeah Jr is an interesting model name choice for sure. I do prefer the LE over the Jr.

      Hifiman price usually drop like crazy especially for their DD model. I expect to see these for less than half the price in less than a year lol.

    • @TheHonestAudiophile
      @TheHonestAudiophile  3 месяца назад

      You can get the TWS options for lowerprices on the Hifiman website, LE is $199 (originally$299) and Jr $119 (originally$179). The Svanar is still $1,999 though.

      Well, Hifiman ARE pedigree phones...

    @radiocalm1424 4 месяца назад +2

    Why oh why can Hifiman not give you a good cable with anything? I don’t get it. Doesn’t matter how much you spend, they simply cannot come up with a decent cable. I find that really strange. You buy the susvara, ok, you spend that kind of money, you’re going to buy a really nice cable for it… ok, so that makes at least a little sense. But when they put a proprietary connection on this iem, you’re stuck. That’s the only cable you’ll ever be able to use on it. No one wants to use some funky adapter on their $2k iem to make it 2 pin. It’s just baffling how they miss so big on a product like this. Can’t wrap my head around it. I mean, if they can’t source one, which, come on, that makes zero sense; but let’s say that’s true… team up with effect and put one of their cables in there. It’s two grand. And please, just use 2 pin. I just don’t get it.

    • @TheHonestAudiophile
      @TheHonestAudiophile  4 месяца назад +1

      It is a 2 pin but the actual way it enters into the shell is proprietary; very skinny, shallow and has a groove that only fits their cable. So they include an adapter that takes an average cable and "shrinks" it to fit the shell. A stupid design, all they needed to do is make the pin entry normal size.
      For a 2k price tag it should have an Effect Audio cable, totally agree.
