Really I was shocked; I A/Bd against my other cans, notably LCD3 and Denon7200, but also against the HD58X and I was incredibly underwhelmed. I'm almost tempted to say it sounded compressed and non energetic.
Also I did not find that 3D feeling that I expected. The depth was not to the level.
This worries me. Have you heard the HEX V2 or Ananda? Can you compare to either of them? Just seeing if it's Hifiman's sound that doesn't appeal to you or if it's the headphone, in particular, or chain?
On the Ether 2 thread, I saw quite a bit of praise for them and was excited to get a pair in to listen to and to say the least, I was quite disappointed with them as a $2K headphone. I hope this wouldn't be the case with the Arya.
