Here are detailed comparisons from Passion for Sound, just as WaveTheory, he rates HE1000 Stealth higher than MR at 1/3 of the price.

I don't like Chi-Fi but interested to try and compare MR with this model and Empy II myself. At this price, there shouldn't be any single compromise.


I'm not sure we're supposed to take this reviewer seriously, have you seen his latest content? :joy:

Do all Diana / MR models has that inear/in your head experience like the V2?
I think it’s how your brain perceives it. I don’t get that from the V2 or MR. To me, they state different than most headphones. I kinda get an open speaker like feel. Decent depth in front of me too. Obviously not speaker level but not super intimate either.

Understand. I'm not talking about obvious differences like an HD800 that artificially lengthens the stage. With other magnetostats such as the LCD X or 4, you perceive a three-dimensional space in which layers of information are displayed in different parts of the room. I never had that with the V2. It sounds very natural, but not very open, wide and the sound doesn't go particularly deep into these "layers". The best way to compare this is perhaps with the Audeze LCD 2, where it is similar. Only if, for example, you go from an LCD 2 to an LCD 4 (whose FR are relatively the same), then you immediately notice this difference in the "depth" of the sound in the soundstage (not to be confused with the depth of the bass)

I disagree with his views on Abyss, but it's a fair review with justifications and subjective opinions. It's not a hatchet job.
He's done other excellent reviews and they're well structured imo.

He's also very open to differing opinions. he happily responds to people on YouTube.
