I'm trying to make up my mind with what to replace my Sennheiser 660S2 as I find them to be fine but extremely unspectacular. Comfort is very important and I also have a good cable for the Hifiman which I bought on a whim some years ago so I'm deciding between these two models, the HE1000 Stealth being some 30% more expensive of course. Kinda torn especially taking into account that I like Arya's design significantly more.
Can anyone tell me if the HE1000 Stealth has a fuller midrange (particularly for vocals and/or piano) than the Arya Stealth (not organic) and has maybe a bit less of the recessed mids for which Hifiman is kinda known? I've been finding contradicting information about this. As I'm not a fan of hollow voices, I'm kinda liking a lot what I'm reading here https://nobordersaudiophile.wordpre...e-pinnacle-of-mids-focused-planar-musicality/ but then it's just someone's perception I guess :-D
