Yeah... saw that too. But strange that they bragged about it in the EF600 but nothing much on the Serenade.
I found it! Here is the link to the review that claimed the Serenade was better for dynamic drivers: https://post.m.smzdm.com/p/a7nm96zo/

Would Meze Elite fit with them? Currently I'm using an XDuoo TA-22.
hifiman doesnt have dynamic drivers in any og the hp i have from them, Would think its made for use with planars

I have the ef400 which i love but i am considering buying the ef600 aswell to compliment it. From what I have read in one review the ef400 is slightly thicker in sound but less soundstage & detail than the EF600.
Anyone with planars to test could also share their impressions. I am also interested in how planars sound with the Serenade

Yes, Elite paired well with Serenade. Hard to beat for the price.

I'm really considering it with my HE-1000 V2, but am worried it's not as powerful or punchy as a Burson 3XP. Is R2R right for them?
The EF600 might be good for your Heks. More punchy and powerful. Theres a thread for it on headfi too

My ef400 is great with my he1000v2 so I should imagine the ef600 would be to.

I've heard the Serenade described as a fully upgraded EF400, and the EF600 too neutral for HEK's compared to a burson. Been hard to decide

The only problem with the ef400 is the lack of connections which doesn't really matter to me.
The Dac/amp ef400 has more than enough power & sounds amazing so I couldn't imagine you would need an upgraded model.
Buy both and return one

Maybe at 1k even not at $1200. Hoping to get it around that price or cheaper next year.
