And anyone who could overlook its cheap build quality, it’s shady abuse of the R10 name and aesthetics, it’s measurements especially distortion, its 5 dollar oem cheap wood cups for such an outrageous price is probably also overlooking its sound deficiencies as well.

Thanks for your impressions. Sounds like the Stealth did pretty well there. As to the XC, I never listen to it without EQ. With Audeze presets I like it a lot, but yes, I can understand your impressions if you listened to it without EQ. I also always EQ the 4 by the way.
I do not understand why the HE-R10 is looked at as a joke.
Again, multiple reviews place it at very near to Susvara levels technically in a closed back and superior to Susvara in bass, impact, musicality, richness of tone. Price is not much more than the stealth. It can be driven with very little power.
Made some inquiries , local price is actually less than the Stealth. I also thought they were a joke based on overall Head-fi speculations , but then again, my favorite headphone is also a joke on Head-fi (Z1R). So definitely giving them a listen first chance i get.
While I had a similar initial impression based on photos, after seeing it in a few videos the design has definitely grown on me. You can't fully appreciate the quality of the materials used (especially matte ones) based on static images, you need to see how light reflects off of it, and maybe get closer to appreciate textures. But we'll see how I feel about it when I hold it in my hands. Eagerly awaiting a shipping notification while I'm contemplating a headphone amp splurge to do them justice.
