PM3 is one of my faves years ago. I would say the presentation is similar but the Stealth is just better in everything. More extension top and bottom, less group delay, more accurate and more resolving. I would pick a PM3 over any other DCA that's not the aeon 1 or Stealth.

Well, I have the PM-3 and the DCA Aeon 2 Closed, and I prefer the Aeon 2C (although I remain very happy with my PM-3 and keep using it for traveling).

That is for you, maybe for your type of music. I listen a few hours a day, since the day the Stealth arrived it has 95% of ear time. I don't get that extra warmth thing, really.

And I don't get the negativity of people that don't have it or intend to keep or have it.

How does the Stealth compare to the HEKSE? I am sure the sound stage is much smaller.

My HE1000SE was a better headphone to my ears, to be expected though. For a closed back the Stealth is a good headphone. It is not magic, it is still a closed back HP but it does a better job to my ears than any other Closed Backs I have heard with the caveats of it requires ALOT of power and the cup seal needs to be maintained for any sort of proper bass response. The HEKSE doesn't suffer from either of those drawbacks.

HEKse is considerably brighter, which might make it sound like more detailed, but actually it is the tuning being brighter. Don't get caught up in the open / closed debate. Stealth has the closed and noise isolated, dampened room effect, which is a different feeling. I use Stealth most of the time, as I find it more comfortable with a more agreeable tuning. HEKse is easier to drive.

Sound stage is not just about being open or closed. It is more about phase, timing etc. So you might get a good stage even with am IEM. Stage of Stealth is realistic.

It's been weeks since I have grabbed my Abyss TC. These headphones have exceeded my expectations and I'm way past the honeymoon period. I didn't realize that I would be such a fan of the harman tuning.

That’s really some recommendation. I wonder how you would feel about giving up the Susvara for Stealth. It’s hard to imagine they are that good even for a closed back.

The stealth is what a closed back susvara would sound like…
