I really really like the TT2 with Arya. Like match made in heaven. But Susvara for some reason has this "chamber" sound in the mids, nice sound but I dont hear the highs near the Arya. Trumpets are just better on Susvara no comparison. But overall Arya feels like the best buy. These Arya does have alot of hours of burn-in, and I can hear they are more stable now in the sound.

My hifi dealer recommended me the Niimbus US 5 Pro, its a little cheaper than Enleum. What do you have in mind? ... niimbus us 5?
Susvara's treble is very smooth (eg. lacking bite), and the question is if any amp will change this to your liking without any other negative effects.

Maybe Ayra and TT2 is your end game?

If any of these amps doesnt change Susvara to to my liking …

Enleum 23r
Niimbus US 5 Pro
Ferrum Audio

Then I hope I can save it with some EQ

Where did you get that cradle headphone stand the Susvaras are on? It’s pretty cool

Edit: It looks like the pic is from a video, so it might not be your equipment. If that’s the case, please disregard.
Seeing as how the Shangri-Lr Jr just arrived today, I can confirm that cradle stand ships with both the Jr and Sr:

My ears touching the fabric as well. Closer to the sound, I say. Not everything is a problem.

Do you have the new version with 3,5mm connectors? They have deeper pads than the old versions.

Seriously? yeah mine are 3.5mm with the stealtmagnets. Wow the original must be real thin then. Dont you mean angled?
Yes, ZMF Auteur hybrid solid pads: deeper, much more comfortable, much better quality and in my opinion, better sound, even closer to the Harman tuning. There are several posts in this thread talking about them.
Thank you very much. I am going to order them after the Sus gets more annoying/settles

They are definitly not as thick as Arya V2 I can feel it. Arya just seems like the best comfort. Susvara more generic. Sorry.

EDIT: Sound wise I am starting to realize the sound/texture of the Susvara. Its more deeper and organic....I just have to remind myself that I am not going to use the Arya first but last because my brain adapts to the highs of Arya.

I remember Sundaras being thicker than my Susvara ear pads...maybe my ears just got bigger who cares

The stand didn't come with my Shangri-la Sr, but I only bought the headphones and not full package with the amp. I wish I would have received that stand though :triportsad:

I am talking to HIFIMAN about these stands, basically trying to convince them to make more and sell individually since there are definitely going to be customers if it's priced well. Let's see if it works out!
