yes :v susvarayou mean susvara? Yes
i guess because many retailers would still have 2.5mm models to sellyes :v susvara
Why don't I see any of hifiman's talking about this change on the home page
Beside 2.5 mm breaking easier is thier any other benefits of the 3.5 mm ?
maybe easier to find third party cable ?
Hi there, we see some of you have been talking about the Susvara now coming with 3.5mm sockets on the headphone rather than 2.5mm. We can confirm this is true. However the reason for this is really quite simple and rather mundane. Its not for any exotic “ooooh it sounds better” reasons, it was just that since the entire rest of our line up had already been moved over to using 3.5mm sockets, it just makes life more simple in the factory if we don’t have to keep a separate stock of 2.5mm sockets just for the Susvara. That’s it. There was no down side to changing the connector and changing made life a little bit easier for the guys in the factory.

lol they should have gone with 3.5 mm since the beginning that way I can share the cable with my focal elear too lolHope this helps-
That would be nice I have a diy cable project with my friend but luckily I prefer light not too thick cable and my Susvara is the 2.5 mm version.You can use thicker wires.

would putting (2x) 2.5 to 3.5 mm adapter on cable to use the cable of Susvara with focal hp effect the sound quality? That way I can use 1 cable for both hp
Yes, I bought the Affinity cable adaptor to use the superconductor on the Susvaras. The cable sounds good, but I actually prefer the Cardas Clear cables on the Susvaras. The SC are a clear and noticeable improvement from the stock cable, so you’ll be happy with the SC (the stock cable that comes with the Susvara is basically a throwaway). The Cardas Clear is like 1/3 the cost of the SC, as an added bonus.I have an Abyss Phi CC with Superconductor cable. I also have some adapters lying around for the SC cable to adapt the Abyss connectors to the hifiman 2.5mm from when I had the HEKv2. I am considering picking up a set of Susvara's. Has anyone tried the Superconductor cable on the Susvara? is it any good?
Hifiman would not register my Susvara without a copy of the receipt from an authorized HifiMan distributor. The first receipt I sent them had a different name than the name they are registered with at HifiMan. This is the response I got back from HifiMan...Are the Susvara bought in Chinese (come with Chinese booklet bought from retail in China) warranty transferable without the receipt)
I heard hifiman can check trace the headphone production unit no. So if the receipt is loss they will still cover the warranty. is it true?

I find this hard to believe.

If there's a serial number on them, that's enough.
