Should you suggest me a desktop dac/amp?
Maybe my daps aren’t good enough for HP3...

Destop amp may sound different but I think balanced output of your Shanling M6 pro is good enough!
How do you compare your HP3 vs your other headphones?

I like HP3 more than Focal Clear, Hifiman Ananda and HD800 that I sold, maybe If I’ll buy an Arya or HE-5se I’d search a desktop dac/amp with 2-3W like Lyr3

2-3 watts is way overkill for HP-3.

Crinacle just launched his Headphone ranking with 53 entries. The HP3 is number 51 with a D+ rating... "Lots of bass bloat, way too thick-sounding and lacking definition."
The Sony MDR-Z1R is number 50 with a C-.

Yeah, i hardly find Over ear headphone rangking out there, mostly the list out there is for IEM, i;m appreciate his oppinion
HP-3 and RME ADI-2 DAC FS is a fantastic pairing. The ADI-2 has one of the best SE outputs I've heard on a DAC/Amp.
after a few hours (20/30) of listening I can say the following:
At high volumes I find it very difficult to listen to the bass. I perceive it distorted and without an adequate presence. With perfect engravings it goes better. Instead, the central and upper part is superb but always with excellent engravings, otherwise I find everything a little mixed ".
At moderate volume it is definitely better in every respect.
With the tube it goes a little better. The music takes on more body and the highs are softened which, otherwise, are a little tiring. I could listen for hours ...
always on condition that you do not overdo the volume.
As for the size of the scene, nothing to complain about.
I have the feeling that the headphones do not tolerate "significant" powers.
Obviously they still have to burn and I also believe that with a balanced cable the situation is better.

Hi everyone,
This is Tung, I am new here. I’ve spent my last 3 days reading everything about the HP-3, including reading most of the pages of this quite big thread since morning
And I’ve decided to humbly join the HP-3 fan club! However since I live in the UK, the price for a new one is very high. So I wonder if anyone here would want to sell his HP-3 or have a good tip for a shop with good price that ships to the UK, London? Your help would be very appreciated!
*I know there’s a trade/sell forum, but since I am new I can’t create a request post there.

In italy you can buy ebony HP3 NEW for 900€
Thanks Xinli for the tip!
I wish in EU we can have better prices for the HP-3 like for the guys in the US, 900 euros is around 1200 Usd right?
Oh you’re right! it’s not that really bad actually
btw, what do you guys think about the:
Ultimate One Headphones from KLH
they look very similar to the the HP-2 that were supposed be released alongs side with the HP-3. However the HP-2, HP-1 were ultimately axed by the Klisch management, as well as the whole developement of high end Klipsch headphones.
