The AIC-10 is my favorite head-fi piece I’ve splurged on outside of my MPD-8. Total musical Bliss.

Sorry, i thought they were the P. But should still work the same. Contact Hifiman and they should be able to fix the channel imbalance issue. Who knows maybe let you upgrade to the HE-R10P Stealths at their current pricing. That would be a major upgrade in sound quality.

I don’t have any channel imbalance going on. I’m currently listening to the HE-R10P Stealths at this time portably.

I use 4.4mm Bal on the go and XLR Bal at home. But like you said single ended is good also. I use that when using on bedroom setup.

Easy, Susvara or Imannis or both.

I would like to purchase a set of Meze Angled Alcantara pads. Thanks, Tim

I was curious because of what your findings were for a couple headphones. Look into the HE-R10P Stealth version. You may find that they will work for you. Hifiman had them on sale on their website last month. Maybe they still due.

What is your current setup?

I have the Raidho X1s in my near-field setup and use the Sound Anchors ADJ1 44” Monitor Stands.

Lol

I got lucky a dealer near me took it in on trade. So I got a almost new unit almost half off.

I just installed the PS Audio PowerPlant 20. It’s a beast of a unit. Large and Heavy. I sits under my desk. Removing the two units from on my desk. That said, it sounds wonderful with increased transparency, frequency response and attack.

I would say DCA Stealth and HIfiman HE-R10P Stealth for Planars and Focal Stellia for Dynamic. Then I would go ZMF Caldera Closed or Verti Closed Respectively. IMHO

I’m selling like new Danacables Sapphire Reference Interconnects at $550 each or Best Offer. This will include Shipping in CONUS. I’ve upgraded to Final Touch Audio Granymede XLRs and going to upgrade to the RCAs next. Upper Left Sapphire Ref II 4pin "Palic" connectors (premium grade), black...

I don’t know. But the Isvarna is there latest Headphone and suppose to have a subwoofer in them. Not many out in the wild yet. I also sent you a PM.

The Hifiman HE-R10P Steaths are very comfortable and very underrated headphone. With the reduced pricing right now on Hifiman’s website they are an amazing buy.

The Grimm MU2 was also on my radar when I was searching for my Endgame setup. But I decided to go with the Playback Designs MPD-8 to match up with my Riviera AIC-10. Loving it so far. Good luck you have a great setup. Enjoy the music.

When I spoke with Danny he stated that off the Riviera that 16 Ohms is the sweet spot. But I guess it wouldn’t hurt to try.

What are you offering for a set?

That’s a night and day difference. Your ears will thank you

Which DAC did you decide to go with? I’ve been extremely happy with the Playback Designs MPD-8.

I have these as part of my travel rotation. Great set of cans. Highly underrated.

I’ve not heard the treble sizzle. But never used stock cable. A good hybrid cable is a perfect match.

The TT2 powers the Stealths great. But when I put them on my Riviera off the speaker taps. These headphones become magical. They scale so well.

When are the new pads they where talking about hitting the market?
