I saw them very cheap on aliexpress. Check out aliexpress.I have a new pair of HE1000 Stealth ("v3"). I love the sound, but the leader headband puts pressure on the top of my head and is uncomfortable after 10-15 minutes of wearing. Has anyone else had this issue, and if so, how have you addressed it? My ideal situation would be to get an Arya headband pad and put on the HE1000, but I don't see the Arya pads for sale anywhere.

I ordered and received Topping stack A70 Pro and D70 Pro. Sounds already really good with the HEKv2.
The V222 arrived too, but waiting for the Bifrost 2/64, should arrive on Monday.
Is there any recommendation for tube amp, for the HEKv2, something around 1-1.5k€? I would like to test one.

Had an HE1000 Stealth arrive yesterday. I'm genuinely surprised by how good this thing sounds. It really is a perfect middle lane between Arya and Susvara. Now if only Hifiman would hurry up and ship my Arya Organic...

And until they arrive, a brief comparison between the HEK Stealth and the 6se V2 would be very valuableHad an HE1000 Stealth arrive yesterday. I'm genuinely surprised by how good this thing sounds.

Does one of the two give you bigger images (closer sounding) of instruments and vocals than the other? Which of the two has warmer tone is also something I would like to know.

I just got a pair too and had the same reaction. Very few reviews compared to the Arya so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I’ve been impressed. Very well balanced, nice airy treble, and the detail is incredible but not fatiguing. Arya feels a bit flabby by comparison, which is strange to say since it’s such a great headphoneHad an HE1000 Stealth arrive yesterday. I'm genuinely surprised by how good this thing sounds.

its way over my pricerange of 1-1,5k€.Cayin HA-3A?
I need 230V :/Heard good things about the Quicksilver but it's 110V only.

You could try the tube-amp Vincent KHV-200 which is €1250 - Vincent . It got a 95% rating for the sound quality by the German HiFi-Magazine STEREO (09-2021).
Another tube-amp would be the Cayin CS-1H which is €1300 - Cayin . It got a 93% rating for the sound quality by STEREO (07-2018) - but it's an unsymmetrical amp.
An unsymmetrical tube-amp with integrated DAC would be the SH by Unison Research and is around €1800.

I do not own nor heard the HE1000SE but... I do own the HE1000 V2 Stealth, and there is definitely a slight sub bass boost to my ears.Stealth has more sub bass than SE, i didn't expect that.
