does anyone know if it's normal forthe yokes, where they connect to the headband on the Arya, are supposed to be sort of crooked? If you look at where the top of the yoke it has a like a PTFE top on it where it meets and rotates around the flat piece on the headband. It's crooked and tilted so...

ya I guess were in agreement with each other then! I also have a few planars I love them. Do you have any of the planars I have? I’d be interested to see what you’ve come up with for EQ. Cheers!

I was not aware he used a custom target curve outside of the harman target if that's what you're talking about. he lists the 2018 harman target as far as I can tell and from when I've talked to him. where are you getting this information? Or are you again talking about the Harman target? the...

sorry not sure i understand. are you trying to say you think the harman curve is flawed in the bass region? if so it's a preferential curve so it's more of an opinion so can't really call it flawed IMO. also, the bass region is extremely easy to adjust to preference with your own EQ settings...

i recommend Oratory’s EQ setting the guy isan acoustics engineer and has access to an industry leading measurement rig and has measured a lot of headphones multiple times and he reaverages his curves as he does more and more over time. This is a great way to start and then tweak by ear.

I've never heard of that before what shops offer this?

it' strong like bull. jokes or all seriousness aside... now i need to at least try someones hd800s or another flagship. im pretty sure this arya is the highest end headphone i have ever heard aside from the LCD-4 in which is good but frankly for the money the LCD-X actually suits my tastes...

my girlfriend tells me I have a strong jaw line so maybe that’s it but doesn’t bother me but I definitely recognize it is on the large/long side. and I’m not worried about the break in one bit I was just saying basically I don’t want to count my chickens before they hatch. I’ll wait until the...

Wow my Arya came in in 1 day and I think I'm EXTREMELY happy with my choice. These things sound absolutely titties! Immediately I was struck by the soundstage and thought to myself... "Alright alright alriiiiiiiiiiight we gon' stage today!" My 660s clamp force walked there way over and shouted...

Interesting, I do like how light they are. I'll have to try them one day. How do the E2's stage compared to the Arya or the LCD-X? Also, I will EQ my Araya as well. They are fairly close to the Harman just need a bit of bass boost and a few tweaks to the treble curve, nothing major. This is a...

I ordered the Arya. I'll keep ya'll posted on what my thoughts are about them based on my expectations and in comparison with my current headphone stack :)

any thoughts on the he6se v2 vs the arya? it would appear they are fairly similar in sound with the arya having a larger soundstage and the he6se being a bit more punchy/dynamic and intimate? is that accurate or can anyone elaborate?

that's a really good description. yeah im definitely leaning away from 800s but it's just such a legendary headphone you can't ignore it and i take it the ADX5000 is similar but probably not something I'd want to keep long term by the sounds of it. i've heard the ether 2's have just a wonky...

thanks for your reply, with that said I’m very close to biting the bullet on the Arya and if I don’t like it I may return it for a different pair.
