Riviera AIC-10 headphones & speakers amplifier
One thing that differs significantly between the 2 is ergonomics. Both are high quality builds but the WA33 is massive and weighs 60 pounds compared to AIC-10 30 pounds. The AIC-10 has a much smaller footprint but by no means small. Also the WA33 gets way hotter and easily cooks up a small...- Chronos

Riviera AIC-10 headphones & speakers amplifier
This is actually incredibly accurate to what I’m hearing. I actually agree with every single point. The surprising thing is I’m hearing the same differences with the WA33 standard and fully upgraded tubes. I think in summary they’re both incredible TOTL amps. If you prefer a cleaner more...- Chronos

Riviera AIC-10 headphones & speakers amplifier
Just tried, definitely better, bigger soundstage, more authoritative, slightly better clarity/more detailed, mids same, better upper range. Thanks a lot! I’m not baller enough for both but if someone buys my WA33 standard I’d buy a WA33 Elite to compare. Will update soon, both so good but...- Chronos

Got this beauty recently, such a high quality product. So far most impressions on here are pretty accurate. Comparison to WA33 standard is pretty interesting though. Will post after some more listening sessions.- Chronos

HiFiMan Susvara
I haven’t heard any of your other amps besides the iHA-6, but if you think Susvara slams with iHA-6, you are in for way more enjoyment with better amps as the iHA-6 is only the tip of the iceberg.- Chronos

The JPS Labs: Abyss AB-1266 Impressions Thread
I think there are a bunch that challenge the 1266, but nothing beats it. For me Fostex th-900 mk2, Denon 9200, Utopia 2022 come to mind. Stellia wasn’t for me.- Chronos

Been looking for something like this since I transitioned from IEMs to full size. I think there was another thread that attempted this. This one is already off to a great start- Chronos

Agree, it comes really close to Susvara for a tiny fraction of the price and minimal amp requirements. It is quite amazing what Sennheiser has achieved.- Chronos

Interesting since I’m debating on upgrading my WA33 to a WA33 EE or the AIC-10. How’s the Head space amp compare to the WA33 EE? I mostly listen with my Sus to metal, edm, hiphop.- Chronos
