Now you have me thinking. The HE1K V2's are REALLY good and I do expect some diminishing returns with the move up to the Susvara's. The problem I'm having is finding a place to audition the Susvara's for a comparison. There are no high end dealers in my area. So I'm always buying blind. Maybe I will just hold on them after reading your post. Thanks for chiming in!
I wouldn't go selling something you know you like and spend that sort of money on a headphone blind. Even if you have to get on a plane to go and listen to stuff like I do, it's worth it because you can be sure you made the right decision then. If you buy and sell ONE piece of gear at this sort of price, you're already behind. If you can get to a shop that has multiple flagships for you to try at once it will be more worthwhile too because you might find yourself walking out of the store with something you never expected, or best case scenario, nothing at all, because you find out that you are happy with what you've got and none of the other options are worth bothering with. I went to listen to a bunch of flagship IEMs, a bunch of DAPs and some DACs one time and decided I wanted none of them. Just crossed tens of thousands of dollars worth of gear off my wishlist for about $300 in flights and taxis. Definitely worth it.
