Hi there!
i was lurking around a planar headphone that would be an upgrade to my dt880 and after watching a Review (something with a "z"
) i was interested and found this intereting thread here with tons of infos and great impressions of the Hifiman Sundara..
So when looking for it i stumbled upon a real bargain offer (from a guy thats actually 3 kilometers away from me) and got it today together with a nice 3m Carday cable..
-Out of the box i was very impressed by the solid build quality and simplicity of the design.. like the bauhaus priciple "form follows function" its so simple in the design but offers an amazing fit when i put it on my head.. I ordered me additional Dekoni hybrid pads from england that have not arrived yet. Comfort is allready amazing.
-I have plugged it in my khardas+atom combo right now with this nice build cable (the dude sold it for a 1/3 of the original price plus some nice adapters from 6,3 to 3,5 ..the whole package for the recent retail price of the headphones)
-Ok ok enough said about the looks.. wow! they sound amazing!
-Whatever i throw at them sounds amazing on them!
Classical music, Jazz, electronic stuff, house.. whatever
-For the first impression the bass is pleasant but enough and vocals sound amazing.
Its a real step up from my dt880 in every aspect!
-I cant wait to get the E1DA PowerDAC v2 next week and mmcx/3,5 adapters to drive them balanced with cable 174
.. and EQ the hell out of them on this dac...
Really an amazing pair of headphones and iam a Planar Fan now (ok also got Tin P1 yesterday so i also got planars to go now)
Best regards, Daniel!
And THANKS A LOT for all the Infos and that i really chose the perfect matching upper midrange headphones for me.
OK.... this improvised designer headphone stand is my office water cooker
