Timbre is a very big topic, I read something similar when the first he1000 released, how good is the timbre of susvara?

While unpacking I was totally delighted to read on the outer packaging that the HEKv2S comes with a headphone stand!!
...later in the unpacking process I discovered that the "headphone stand" is a just super ugly piece of foam
Other than that it comes with 2 cables: 6.3mm and a RLX 4-Pin, both basic rubber cables but they are ok an easy to handle. I'll call them premium rubber cables.

That's a sad story but was expected
It's all about the sound if you decide to use Hifimans.

it's the same little paper box used for susdara, he400 and ananda
Pls. share a comparison between V2 and V2 stealth version once you grabbed it. Obviously you are the only person with both headphones on hand at the moment. Did you bought it from Heiko here in Germany or local store in NRW?Just ordered the Stealth

Yes, I hope that will happen.
The V2 should actually be picked up today, but the interested party no longer reports.
So the chances are pretty good that I can make a direct comparison

Yeah all the HEK versions come with that wacky foam cover for the little nest for the cables! I’m assuming they still come stock with those bizarre bubblegum wrapped crimpy endlessly long and crazy bizarre noodle cables like my HEKse did?While unpacking I was totally delighted to read on the outer packaging that the HEKv2S comes with a headphone stand!!

From memory, excellent. I couldn’t find fault in it. HE1000 V2 but with that tactility and impact I found lacking.

I only know the HEK(v2) cables from pictures and the new ones are different as they are completely black and imo nice to handle. But I like braided cables better. The length is ok, I guess 2m Maybe? And the cables came into a separate litthe cardboard box

My V2 was sold today.
Therefore, I will unfortunately not be able to make a direct comparison.

Thanks, weird release, only available in Germany and not a single official peep from Hifiman, even in their official Sponsor SubForum.
