Have you tried crossfeed? It was designed for and works best with mono recordings
Yes I have, it's great and I use it for harshly recorded music but its not the same as speakers for me unfortunately.

How about this one? … a staggering oeuvre …ok, since we're going into Jazz piano territory, here are couple of my all-time favouite piano albums:
Barry Harris: "Listen to Barry Harris... Solo Piano (Reissue)":
Tommy Flanagan: "Jazz Poet"
Thelonius Monk: "Monk's Dream"
Wynton Kelly: "Wynton Kelly!"
Marian McPartland: "Just Friends" (collabs with other pianists; check the eponymous track)

I also had very similar feeling and felt these were great complimentary headphones. Unfortunately I don't have either right now, so I'm a sad panda...Did some heavy duty comparisons of Susvara vs Caldera recently at an audio show. Some quick takeaways:
* Susvara - Wins out with vocals and strings, lighter on bass impact but has a more natural airy presentation. The vocals sounded truly like the singer was next to me and really had a magic to them I haven't heard elsewhere. For strings when listening to Billy Strings, his plucking speed really shined and you got a sense of his speed and skill where the Calderas it just didn't come through in the same light and have the same magic. I felt like I couldn't get enough of the Susvaras and they were very addicting for certain types of music. The less punchy feel of them also made it feel like it was an easier listen (except for when you hit an 'unlistenable' song, ouch).
* Caldera - Way more heft and weight when it comes to bass, great for electronic music, super punchy and engaging. Much more balanced and forgiving, haven't yet heard a song on these that sounded bad. Caldera really shines with electronic music.
Overall I felt like these headphones would actually be great complements to each other
You're just weird Darren.Interesting. I felt that electronica was the only genre that I listen to frequently where I actually preferred the Susvara over the Caldera.
