Hifiman HE1000 Planar Dynamic Headphone
I have the HE1000 Stealth and the Violectric HPA V280. I use the Chord Qutest and i think it is a great match. No cold sounding vibes with this chain...resolving, musical good bass/treble extension. I'm not looking to upgrade anything.- jrjr99

Hifiman HE1000 Planar Dynamic Headphone
I have been running a V280 / Qutest combo with a pair of OG Clears (Pro - black with red pads) for the last couple of years.
