HiFiMan Susvara
I was thinking the same thing, but the potential for regret is dangerously high. I wouldn't sell my Sus unless I was 1000% sure I was replacing it with something better.- ApertureSilence

HiFiMan Susvara
I heard the Audivina at CanJam NY '22. It did have a decently sized soundstage for a closed-back, though not Susvara or Arya-width. The tonality was a bit weird, though. Kind of hollow and congested sounding.- ApertureSilence

Good to know I should hold on to my Susvara, I guess. The real Sophie’s Choice is between whatever this ends up being and Immanis.- ApertureSilence

So is your theory just a theory or is it based on something? Haha just saw your edit. Sorry.- ApertureSilence

I'm listening to Susvara on a Holo Stack and I find there's no sibilance whatsoever, fwiw.- ApertureSilence

This is a launch Caldera from 2022 but still in near perfect condition. The only part that's no longer perfect is that a bit of the rod color has rubbed off at the third notch. It comes complete with Leather Headband and Leather Strap Seahorse Case OFC Cable terminated in 4.4mm Caldera Suede...- ApertureSilence

Yeah I don’t like appealing to “historical significance” when defending The Beatles. Their music stands on its own for me.- ApertureSilence

I for one love the Wilson remasters, especially for Jethro Tull. Giles also does a fine job, but maybe strays too far from the originals sometime. Whoever recently remastered those Red/Blue Beatles CDs should be fired into the sun, though.- ApertureSilence

RAAL 1995 headphones, Magna and Immanis
So I haven't heard the CA-1a, but I've had an SR-1a for a while and I do think it is essentially too "level" in the treble area. The positive of that is that it does feel more like a speaker response and it's very easy to EQ. I tend to apply a very, very mild treble dip to the SR-1a that...- ApertureSilence

Final Audio D7000
No need for sorry. If anything, I’m grateful that you’ve finally pushed me to reach out to Final Audio about servicing my D7000. They say it is the first D7000 they’ve heard of exhibiting this issue, and it sounds like they’re going to do a full driver replacement. I’ll keep you all updated...- ApertureSilence

Final Audio D7000
I have tested the tracks and alas I must report I can get the driver to rattle on both of them. Beyoncé holds up at normal volumes (80db or less), but I can get a bit of rattle at high volumes. However the Hans Zimmer track rattles severely even at lower volumes, and honestly, I don't dare...- ApertureSilence

I mean, he does say it's for people who "like to read." I enjoy his reviews when I'm in the right (drug-induced) mindset, but I'll fully admit I've just been scanning it for pertinent info myself.- ApertureSilence

I'm blind-buying Immanis over Mangna because I'm a soundstage-head above all else, and I love the SR1b. Nothing really to do with cost.- ApertureSilence
