Headphoneus Supremus
Mehh...ppl obsessing about amps again. Stealth and Susvara needs a better transport and digital chain than aping on an amp buffet.
I tried Aeon Flow Closed and Aeon 2 Closed 2 years ago. They sounded absolutely horrible, much worse than even my bluetooth headphones. Their sound was insanely bad.
Now we have the $4000 Stealth. Is this a big improvement ?
Source?It seems such target concerns more or less 60% of the listeners.
Hardly something I would describe the Hedd. It's bass is not deep and is on the lite side. Stealth makes Hedd sound like a toy.I prefer deep clear and fast impacts (the HEDDphone One is the king for such target).
Stealth has lower sensitivity compared to Noire. But you can still get a reasonable volume out of it with the mojo. Probably not the best choice if you want to listen at louder volume though.I have not read all 300 pages, but can't you simply use a $500 Chord Mojo to drive this thing? It works for the AFC 2 Noire, so I would be quite surprised if the Chord Mojo is "too weak" for the Stealth.
I own and use both .. I would say impacts in the throat of the HEDD is like an absolute reference for me... the Stealth without EQ in lows is like a bit "muddy" compared to the Hedd.Source?

From what I read, Stealth's sensitivity is 83 dB/mW
Chord Mojo can output 750 mW of power. It is enough to play Stealth at 111 dB.
Unless you want to go deaf, this is more than enough loud.
