RAAL 1995 Immanis
May be slightly premature/not enough data but: Is Immanis generally easier to drive than Susvara? What are some good DAC/amp combos that theoretically can drive both? I'm asking because I'd have to stretch for my dream (long-game, not end-game) setup and wanted to ideally not have to change...- tjkohli

RAAL 1995 Immanis
The Immanis, because of this thread, seem to be the most exciting news I’ve heard all year in audio. If these can dethrone Susvara, my shopping list will definitely change for this year. Curious to hear more impressions and (hopefully) my own!- tjkohli

Whoever has heard the Immanis and the Susvara. I, too, have the same questions and am eagerly awaiting a response 😉- tjkohli

Reply to review by 'tjkohli' on item 'iFi Audio GO Bar Kensei'
I've heard Mojo 2, Hugo2, and Chord TT2. I'd say the Mojo 2 is 90% there. Hugo2 is 94%. TT2 is 96% (+ M Scaler = 98%). Of course this scale means nothing but it's meant to demonstrate the diminishing value of returns as the price doubles/triples with each upgrade. That being said, I'd buy a...- tjkohli

Mojo 2 is the best portable DAC in the world, IMHO- tjkohli

HiFiMan Susvara
It really depends — for me: in a quiet environment, an open-back headphone like Susvara is always going to be better. When there is a need to be in a loud place, closed-back headphones are always better. When there is a need to travel/remain portable (imagine traveling with a Susvara chain lol)...- tjkohli

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
New products, especially ones in-high demand, typically never have working codes. I don't think anyone is going to get discounts on DZ at least for the next month or two.- tjkohli

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
Probably not possible, since it’s a pre-order and probably in high demand at least initially. According to Joe, it’s easier to drive than the TC but harder to drive than the MR.- tjkohli

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
What's with all the hate for Abyss / Diana DZ on Reddit? Did I miss something and all of a sudden Abyss is "uncool"? Or is /r/headphones just full of gamer-audiophiles with <$250 budget?- tjkohli

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
My understanding is that the TC is a bit of a scalpel, a tool, while the DZ has a bit of a more audiophile grade tuning… a more enjoyable listening experience— hence the focus on comfort (reduced weight and second headband).- tjkohli

How do these usually sound, compared to Focal Utopia 2022, for example? I'm very intrigued by these.- tjkohli

DCS Lina stack with Susvara- Can Lina Amp do it Justice?
The first time I heard Susvara, it was HiFiBuys in Atlanta, on a DCS Lina stack. I didn't have much to reference to, but I also heard Utopia 2022 as an A/B test. As an owner of the Utopia + TT2 and also having heard the Susvara with my TT2, here are some thoughts on the Lina: The Lina sounded...- tjkohli

Less intense and more beautiful sounding than then D8K. I'd say the MR is less offensive.- tjkohli

What about with a Qutest? How does it pair? Also on a side note, how well does this drive Susvara?- tjkohli

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
I had the same issue with MR, which is virtually identical frame to TC, and many say the padding sticker thing (looks like two pillows connected by a bridge) helps a ton. Beautiful Audio also makes a padded headband cover thing for Diana.- tjkohli
