I already received the Lavracables Master, and although expensive, is a fantastic upgrade.

The sound is more cohesive and the treble is more natural.

I played with Roon EQ and with small adjustments the sound is almost perfect.

For example, the track "Faith" by The Cure is warm and natural, transparent, bass is tight but natural, the treble without any trace of brightness.

The voice of Yeal Naim "Live in Paris" is delicious without any sibilance, the soundstage is lush and huge. (the album was recorded in a church).

I am really happy with my current setup.

They need a burn in time. Mine are better now and I preferred the bass compared to the HEK stealth

Get the Dekoni Sheepskin pads. They will cut the treble. The Hybrid will too but also take out a bit of bass in addition.

You can't burn in or amp-pick your way out of the giant treble peak on the organic, but your brain can get used to it if you aren't treble sensitive.

If you are treble sensitive, then EQ is your only option for this headphone.

I really wish people would stop acting as if physics didn't exist.

What an elevated treble can do though once you get used to it is give a heightened sense of presence. Pads can alter sound significantly tho,

Nice man, I’m also doing the upgrade after our convo. Very excited to try them once I finish sending in my non-stealth Arya.

And: Did u tried the Organic? How is it?

I did! I ended up getting the Arya Organic and HEK Stealth prior to upgrading. I was disappointment with the Arya Organic. It's too sibilant and the most V shaped / aggressive sounding Arya I've heard to date. The HEK Stealth was significantly better sounding to my ears but I feel the HEKSE is the best Hifiman unless you can afford a Susvara (which is excellent if you have the right amp for it).

My suggestion - avoid the Arya Organic.

The Organic has the biggest most expansive sound stage, clarity and definition of any HP in this price range and is good for all genres. I'd be very careful in making pronouncements like "avoid" because what may not be appropriate for you will be perfect for someone else because we all have very individual preferences for what constitutes great sound. AND we all have different ears. Yes the treble may be pronounced, but after listening to it for a good amount of hours, it has a much much better midrange for vocals than any other Arya in my opinion.

Agreed

I found it to be literally painful lol. If you’re not sensitive to sharp treble then sure, this headphone works just fine. If you EQ the treble down, it’s an easy fix as well I suppose.
