I have all three here (thanks @OneEyedHito!) but haven't listened enough to compare and contrast for impressions. That information is included in the link I shared and written by a very good pair of earsHave you tried the new tuning pads for it?

What headphones do you use most?https://www.sonusapparatus.com/2022/01/mysphere-3-1-3-2-impressions/
everything you need to know about the mysphere. I love my 3.2 even though I don't use it much, it's always special when I do.
These days my Final Audio D8000 Pro Limited Edition but I'm guessing once my HM1 arrives in a couple of months the Susvara will be back at number one. Still hoping to get my hands on a Stax X9000 soon.What headphones do you use most?

Wow, just finishing reading the entire thread, great impressions and thank you all who shared your impressions so that I am almost feel like being there. Looking forward to this October my local CanJam.
Was able to catch the show on the last day and added a quick impressions video:

Love your videos....
why not try some CIEM for travel
I feel CIEMs are always better to travel with then headphones.

You killed it as always!
anyone gave the TEAC UD701N a try? It looks like a potential endgame AIO to me.
I did and I liked it a lot with the Lirics and Elites, though the environment was very loud. All their stuff was connected to an external clock.anyone gave the TEAC UD701N a try? It looks like a potential endgame AIO to me.
Yes, I made a post in the TEAC UD-701N thread. I was impressed with it.anyone gave the TEAC UD701N a try? It looks like a potential endgame AIO to me.

Thanks! Never thought about it actually. I do like ANC and the wireless bit though, but the handful of IEMs I've tried have always wowed me. I'd also have to get a DAP, and I don't travel that much to justify one right now.

Just curious, when you are comparing/describing amps, are you using the same pair of headphones, volume matched between amps? How about the source? I'm 100% vested in and review mostly portable audio (IEMs/DAPs), but full size cans pique my interest. With IEMs, it is much easier to compare, you choose one DAP and cycle through different monitors, volume matched. And the same with DAPs, pick one pair of IEMs, and cycle through DAPs, again, volume matched. In my mind, that is the only way I can have a meaningful a/b comparison. But with headphones and desktop sources, seems like there are too many variables. Plus, I noticed, people describing amps while using different dacs and headphones, so I'm a bit confused... I usually attend CanJam NYC on Sat only to check iems, daps, cables, but thinking maybe next year will come back on Sunday just for headphones.
Difficult to test amp and DACs to be honest in CanJam. As you said, too many variables. For eg. In video Enleum amp was on Chord stack, HM-1 was with Weiss DAC which is like $9K DAC and then Bliss was on May stack. There is absolutely no way you can say how the amp performs unless you put them with same DAC and headphone.Just curious, when you are comparing/describing amps, are you using the same pair of headphones, volume matched between amps?

I heard Feliks Envy AMP with Aurender A20 and with RME DAC and performance were miles apart so DAC has big role to play.
