I just got the HD650 and they are excellent headphones. Paired it with the FiiO K7BT(my Schiit stack is on backorder). Upgraded from the HD598 with no DAC/Amp and was blown away by the difference.
@ it’s probably between the Focal Utopia and the Meze Emperyan which I view as end game type of gear and I guess I am bias toward the black color way looks 😬
Thanks! Unfortunately i dont have the Arya for an in depth comparison but Hifiman headphones have always been about detail retrieval and expansive soundstage so it's definitely a different sound profile to the 105AER

Oh nice, yeah those headphones are legendary. Have you tried the Meze Audio 105AER?

Nah, that thing is hideous
Nice vid, keep up the good work
Thank you!
I know you hear Headphones but can’t help appreciating the actual overall stealth look with the dark shades of all the materials 😅
Hahah all good design is also a preference thing, some people may love it while some may not. What's your favourite headphone in terms of looks?

Nice video! Never knew Meze Audio did boom microphones. Does the 105AER sound better than the Arya?
