The new thinner diaphragm is very transparent, fast and detailed.

Any other impressions? And have you been able to compare it to any past Anandas?

Can't wait for another HE6, with thicker, more difficult to drive diaphragm. Just bring back the original 6-screw again. It was perfect. Why was it even discontinued..?

Is that the dreaded catheter cable?

As expected?

Newer Hifimans come with a better black cable from what I heard.

Great another new model to think about lol
Wonder if the nano will also come in the bluetooth version like the previous model.

I received these a few days ago and listened for a few days. They’re incredibly detailed and technical, but have a metallic timbre I couldn’t get over so I decided to return them.

More metallic than the other Anandas?

These were my first pair of Anandas so I can’t say, sorry.

I do wish one of the reputable reviewers would hurry up and post something letting us know how significant the changes are to the Ananda Nano.

I’m sure plenty of reviews will be released in the near future, the Ananda is a fairly popular model.

I’m hearing the same thing. Wonderfully open and incredibly detailed, fast, super dynamics, but cold, emotionally detached, slightly unmusical. I hear all the details of the recording but not connecting as much with the music.

Pearls but no necklace.

Perhaps I need to let them “run in@ a bit more.

Do you prefer the ananda stealth over the nano ?

Yes, try listening to them at least 120 hours. Long burn-in makes wonders to the Ananda experience.

I never had an Ananda, Edition XS or Arya. This is my first of that model type. I do have Sundara, 400SE, 400i and 4xx.
