I say more power to Hifiman and the other planar driven headphone manufacturers ... if they can move forward with new designs and those sound as good or better than what they make today or yesterday then have at it.. we the listener will be who benefit.... I'm still waiting on someone that can replicate the Susvara at a great price point... I don't understand how hard it would be to just copy it and make it a little better and charge a fair price... they wouldn't be able to keep them in stock

I wonder how the Nan-7 compares to the Susvara. The drivers look very similar, but the sensitivity is massively different.

A friend sent me these pics.
Lots of magnets if I understand correctly...

Is it going to be just regular stealth magnets or asymmetrical stealth magnet?
I was wondering what hfm would do with the drivers collected from the trade-in upgrade program.
In a similar token, will hfm release a arya v2 stealth in the future?

 

[Dixter]

the folks over at headphone.com say the implementation of the stealth magnets is a measurable change, so for sure its changing the sound sig...

 

[BowWazoo]

was that a general statement?

 

[BowWazoo]

in the case of the Arya, the difference was almost zero...

was that a general statement?

I think it was specific as the conversation was going towards the new HE1000v2 stealth and it was asked what is stealth actually... for what I got out of it was the stealth magnets are a different shape instead of the flat magnets so the sound moves better from the diaphragm to the ears... but he said more than once that it was a measurable difference to the FR..

I hope Oratorys gets their hands on a stealth as soon as possible.

Looks absolutely identical to V2, is it supposed to be Stealth Edition?

 

[BowWazoo]

It appears to be similar to Arya V3.
V2 non stealth looks different.
The magnets are thinner.
Here a picture of mine.

HE1000SE EQ
20hz , 4.5db, 0.4q (optional)
2000hz , 2db, 1.5q
3000hz , -3db , 2q
12000hz, -5db , 0.7q
16000hz, -2db , 0.5q

Can Any HEKSE owner try this EQ settings and report back to me on the sound change especially on the treble, that would be very helpful.
