What about the Hifiman Edition XS?

The Hifiman HE1000 series are great headphones wirh a wide soundstage, very good bass (quality and quantity) and very high detail. I would say the HE1000V2 does come clos to the HD800 kind of sound sig.

I would really be interested in a new flagship headphone from Beyerdynamic. A new version of the T1 would be great.

What box and packaging did you get? The v2 comes in a leather box with three cables and a booklet with a sheet which has the serial numbers of the drivers.

I can recommend a Hifiman EF400. A affordable dac/amp combi, that sounds very good and is extremely powerful.

Great choice! 👍😜

Many people may enjoy them more because of the slightly less detail retrieval and slightly higher mid bass quantity.

I think the Arya Stealth for 800€ is a very good deal, because it is a outstanding headphone. The HE 1000 series is more refined in every aspect imo.

Really a very nice headphone. I wanted to buy it and still want to, but circumstances didnt allow it. So i have to wait. The Composer looks phantastic and many reviews say that they sound even better thsn they look.

The Topping amps are powerful enough. I run even a AKG K1000 with a Topping A90D. Really powerfull amps for the money.

Hi there! I am looking for a high end open back headphone. Dynamic or Planar does not matter. The Focal Clear is a very pleasing headphone for me, with its punchy, lower end focused sound, that is technically strong but pleasing with its warmer side of neutral tuning. So it can deliver a...
