When a dream comes true. (Actually four )


I am eying the SoliPs since auditioning them at home in 2021.

You should try to upgrade headphone cable. I’ve tried Nordost heimdall cable, silver dragon cable… but now with Enklein Xerxes cable, the sound improve a lot thank to anti-signal interference technology.

Have really been enjoying the Sol Ps since I received them almost 2 weeks ago. They're just so listenable. I'm really enjoying the natural sounding highs and fuller mids. Coming from the HE1000se (and before that the 1266 TC), the complete lack of brightness has been a big contributor toward longer listening sessions and zero listening fatigue. I don't notice any lack of highs, perhaps a bit less sparkle if I'm being critical but a small bit of sparkle often comes with a larger dose of brightness overall. I'll take the Sol Ps tuning.

The soundstage isn't the widest or deepest (I feel like the 1000se had the edge there) but it's still decently dimensional and I can easily just get lost in the music. Overall a very enjoyable and musical listen.

an excellent HP I owned for a while...it is simply mispriced in the USA and way too expensive...it simply isnt a 7k HP

At its initial EU price of 4800€ it was amazing.
Imagine a ~5200$ Solitaire P, that would be a well priced headphone.

Would...

still too expensive to me...they are a 4k HP for me...I think the caldera is as good and the charybdis is better

I would probably agree with you. I wouldn't pay $7k for it and fortunately, I didn't

at the street price for a used susvara being say 3200-3500 it in IMHO simply a far batter option than the sol p and I like the sol p...I compare it more to the caldera

Sol P beats the Susvara to my ears, even in Susvaras strong disciplines like detail retrieval.

Street price of the Solitaire P is also ~3300-3500 and at the same price it's the superior option imho

Is $3300-$3500 the street price new or used? Tks.

when I got mine sometime in 2021, iirc paid roughly usd3.6k new. not sure if there has been a price increase. but just as a benchmark for others.

Used, from what I've seen

That was a hell of a deal! Retail price is $6900 in the US last time I checked. You must have a friendly dealer

The list price is $6900.00 now. Please PM me where I can get them at the pricing being mentioned if still possible. Tks.

If this is true, I'm sure there's a few people who'd like to know

on that we disagree strongly but everybody hears things differently...I owned both and sold sol p without thinking twice...thats whats great about the hobby
