In addition to being less solid and durable than the pads used for Kennerton with the Odin, Thridi, Thror and Thekk, the Susvara's pads are twice as expensive to replace: 130 USD versus 71 USD ...

A few Thekk's comparisons:

Audeze LCD-24

It was a very short demo, I rather tested my Sony TZ-ZH1ES to check if the LCD-24 would be driven. But I can compare the sound with Thekk. The LCD's bass seemed a little more powerfull, it sounds like dynamic bass (not planar). But in general, the sound seemed less layered, everything seemed to be equally moved away from the listener. With Thekk, you feel better about positioning and spacious. Again, I listened to the LCD-24 with a stock cable, and very briefly, but the first impressions are just that - the sound seemed to me less interesting than Thekk's sound.


Audeze LCD-X

Again, I will not describe in detail, because I didn’t have a goal to compare two devices, I will leave only a general impression.

I went to the demo because of reviews, praising the incredible bass and the overall density of the sound. But Thekk turned out to have a higher level. On all directions. I have not heard anything where X was more interesting, better, or even on the same level. In some tracks, I even heard a distortion of tonality, and the after-sounds on the stock cable are generally somehow strange. In general, I expected to hear incredible bass and density, it turned out that Thekk is better in these components too.

I listened to several headphones from Kennerton and in the end decided to buy newest model Thekk for myself, sounding like Thor, but they sit more comfortably on my head and are significantly lighter. Recommend. On ebay there is a seller who sells them new, bought there, A little cheaper than on the official site and with fast free delivery. But if you don’t want to spend a lot on headphones, then go for Vali - great choice in price, sound and quality

Hi all.

Kennerton headphones are among the most desirable headphones in terms of sound and construction quality, but also for their durability, originality and aesthetics.

The Thekk is one of the most desirable headphones in the Kennerton range, precisely for all these reasons.

A little birdie tells me that at the High End Show 2020 in Bangkok (Thailand) from February 27th to March 1st 2020, we will see some new products (new Kennerton headphones), not to mention some sublime limited editions of the Kennerton Thekk ! :)

Good morning, everyone.

All the art of woodworking, finely crafted by Kennerton: high craftsmanship in woodworking and high technology in the development of drivers: that's what sums up the Kennerton brand pretty well. :)
