Nice review. Any chance you can share that Tidal playlist you mention in your review? I also love Radio Paradise and frequently find new music I love from there.

I wonder how these compare to the RAAL SR-1As, especially since those, when paired with the Johtunheim R are $4k versus the $3.8k these run (while still requiring an amplifier, a duty something like the Schiit Magni could take at that price).

And they look terrible. Like a cheap toy you will break in a week. Sound must be good

@Currawong, have you tried the original D8000? If you have, any comments on the difference?

I like the way they look, especially in-person. In photos, the metal parts look a bit like plastic. There are so many great ToTL headphones now, I've decided to no longer even consider any that are not comfortable for extended wearing.
