      I listened to the Stealths back to back against the Aeon2 Noires at CanJam SoCal and bought the Aeon2 Noires instead. Even with their provided amps at CanJam, I wasn't impressed with the sound of the Stealth. I actually asked them to send you a pair, and apparently they ignored me. They look sexy as fuck, but that's about it. I also don't like that the headband is suspended with internal elastic bands which is essentially the shit that breaks down in underwear waistbands over time...why in the hell would I risk that breaking down over time on $4,000 headphones? In fairness, they did verbally claim they would replace them if that ever happened, but still. The Aeon 2 Noires are built like tanks and no elastic to potentially break down...maybe just earpads which are easier to swap. Not to mention I can run my Noires on my LG v40 audio jack just fine...screw you Apple.
      EDIT: I wrote the elastic underwear band thing before I heard you say it in your review...glad we're on the same page. The Dan Clark sales rep was also not happy when I asked that out loud in front of other customers at CanJam. How did they not think-tank this ahead of time? The plastic slider on the Aeon's is simple, effective, and durable...no need to mess with what works.

    I too tried this at SolCal CanJam last year. It was paired to a Hugo 2 TT and an M Scaler and to me it sounded pretty damn amazing. They had the right amount of bass and accuracy that had me listening to my own tunes for a good 15-20 minutes. What I should've done though was bring along my HE6 SE v2 and see how they compare. Like the DCA Stealth, the HE6 is stupidly power hungry and there are people who seriously use speaker amps to power them. At 83 dB of sensitivity, my HE6s would require more power than the Stealth which sits at 86 dB. But I don't need or use a speaker amp. I use a Schiit Magnius+Modius combination and sitting at 1 o' clock on high gain is more than enough to power them, but go to 4 and further and they come alive(6W at 32 ohms on balanced btw). I suspect it'd be the same with the DCA Stealth, just at a slightly lower level of power.
    I'm actually in the market for my very first flagship, but there are just too many good options to go for that I cannot ignore (Susvara, LCD-5/4Z, Euphoria, Empyrean Elite, Diana TC, and more)

    What I've noticed from the DCA planars is that they need high power Amps in order to properly drive them. Even if they have enough power to get enough volume out of them, they distort like hell or sound lackluster unless you have a lot of power overhead to drive them.

      @@PKiX I appreciate the input.
      I actually enjoy the MG as an endgame. Even more than Utopia. It’s equal to it.
      After months long, thought out learning about a Empyrean (brightened up with silver cable, but still slightly fuzzy & not fast enough) & Utopia replacement (2nd pair with driver failure), I decided MG being I enjoy the Utopia so much (& ears not as hot with more air with their dynamic driver open design).
      They are as amazing as Zeos said. Almost as revealing as Utopia with proper bass I wished Utopia had.
      I am concerned, after I burn them in, that the MG may not handle my required listening level (I get to enjoy music & work, safely. So there’s ambient noise). But, they’re already better volume handling than Utopia before clipping. But only about 50 hours burnt in. Better handling than new, today.
      Was going to save for Susvara, 1266 TC, or try Stealth (ear heat was a concern, but enjoyment was priority).

    With that awesomely compact form factor it's a shame Stealth is so picky about sources. If you could drive them well from a DAP their ultra-portability would be far more compelling, but at 86-87dB sensitivity they're really begging to be tethered to a high-powered desktop chain. Meanwhile, LIRIC is uber-versatile, super fun, and half the price (and great out of a DAP).

      What headphones do you plug into it? The fiio K5 Pro is very capable. Dacs only really begin to matter when you get into 500$ detail monsters of iem’s or get into 1000$+ headphones. With those iem’s amp clarity is key, with headphones you’re mostly looking at neutrality and power requirements. If you have anything like the hifiman sundara and that price range you’re good with the k5 pro, has a very nice dac and an absolutely capable amp.
      And if you want to have the best you can get for everything in one, fiio k9 pro. I got one and probably never in a lifetime will I need anything else. “Want” might be something else, but that would just be looking for a different ‘flavor’ because in performance it won’t get much better.

      I'm not the original poster of this comment but I might be able to help explain - I had a very similar experience with the original Aeon flow closed by the same company. It played all the right sounds and had great detail retrieval, but lacked any sort of physical presence in the mids and lows. When you listen to music live and something like a bass or cello is playing loudly you don't just hear it, you also feel it. In headphones this is sometimes called macrodynamics, and it's the feeling of the headphone being able to rumble on your head and provide a physical/punchy feeling when the music is slammin'. So it's not that the the Aeon can't play the right sounds at the right volumes, it's just that it felt lifeless and boring while doing so. My Audeze LCD-XC in comparison aren't bass heavy by any means, but they make me enjoy the music much more because they have that punchiness that you would feel in real life when the song calls for it. A Harmon line will tell you nothing of the physical experience of a headphone.

    So extremely hard to drive..I see... I wonder..... which would be more precise to determine that, a human ear or precise electronic measurement? the stealth needs 549 mV for 94 dBSPL, kind of high but below many others, including Hifiman HE-6, Abbyss Diana V2, and including my dan Clark Aeon RT (677), which my Topping A90 has absolutely no problem to drive, With that numbers is more likely most modern headphone amps will not have an issue with the stealth, Now if someone does a blind test with the stealth showing they can tell the difference between a normal headphone amp and extremely powerful one, then that would be relevant, anything but that has a very low reference value.

  • @jarjared3522
    @jarjared3522 2 года назад +8

    There is zero reason to pick these over the Meze Liric for travel headphones. Why Dan Clark would design a headphone that screams probability and yet requires so much power no portable amp can drive it is beyond me. One of the selling point features on Dan Clark's website is that it's travel friendly.

    I listened to couple sets of these at Canjam. I didn't care for them. They are well built and look cool and have a lot of resolution and all that. But as with most of the other new flagships, they sound so thin. It's like listening to a paper cut. The best setup I heard for them was the GSX Mini and very warm, Border Patrol tube DAC. But for my $7k(?) into that setup, I would still be very disappointed. For that money you could have the Fidelis and RAD-0 package. I like those units radically better than the Stealth. But I'm an LCD-4 man, so I'm biased to that signature. On the other hand, if you really like the Hifi Man Edition X or whatever and want to spend eight times more on a closed version, then the Stealth is your headphone.
    And oh, yeah, I liked the LCD-5 best of the thin sounding flagships. Not trading in my 4 though!

    • @harackmw
      @harackmw 2 года назад +1

      Interesting take, I have often wondered if the newer flagships can touch the previous generation. As the hype has died down, I see more people talking about preferring last gen flagships like the Lcd-4 and the Utopia. Will be interesting to see where people's opinions are in a year or two, or by next gen.

      I went to CanJam Socal specifically for these right as they were debuting and fully ready to drop $4k and happily left with the Aeon2 Noire for $900 instead. I still have zero buyer's remorse on the Aeon 2 Noire and feel like they are going to last a lifetime unlike the elastic bands in the Stealths.

    Zeos, the headband is made material is made of Nitinol, not steel. It's quite unique for headphones. I do wish other manufacturers would give it a try.
    Also, all of your yellow cables are hideous and the Periapt cables are some of the worst you can buy. They're horribly microphonic(way, way worse than any stock cable I've had) and the giant disgusting cork splitter is excessive and always getting in the way. I don't know why you and others promote their cables when they're truly bad.

    • @kevinchrist1658
      @kevinchrist1658 2 года назад +2

      You can request non-microphonic cables from Periapt, and they will leave the outer fabric mesh off the cable so that hey are silent...it's almost entirely the mesh outer wrappings that cause this. They aren't the best cables aesthetically, but I'd much rather spend $80 on a nice cables that work and are durable rather than $300 on a cable that's ultimately only 10-20% nicer. I do think that the non-microphonic should be the default option though...most people aren't aware of this or the option to leave it off.
