Someone said it looks like a trashcan but it looks more like a cheap Chinese knockoff of a real Susvara lol

Agreed, the brown pads just don't look nice in contrast with the colour of the chassis. Am I correct in saying that it comes with a cover to put and take off the side of the driver? very much a hassle if true.

If enough people put Susvara on the used market it will over saturate the market creating competition and resulting in people lowering prices to sell them quicker.

Currently waiting for the Susvara owners to flood the used market and get a cheap Susvara.....

I was hoping for a more power efficient version but looks like it will be just as hard to drive unfortunately.

I really hope this new version shows up at Canjam London next month!

Ok makes more sense so just over 6 thousand pounds for this new version. I wonder if they will make the old version going forward and if there will be a price cut.

Hold up everyone, is the price 560 thousand yen? That's only just over 2800 pounds so that can't be right? Right?

Have they announced the new headphone yet?

If I am correct the price to replace the tubes on the HE1 is over $1000 which isn't too bad for 8 matched tubes. Are you going to be tube rolling?

You won't get any background noise with the Empyrean as I had the original and it was dead silent like every other planar headphone I have tried with the amp. The only background noise will come from dynamic driver headphones but the Focal Utopia has very low background noise so still very good...

I have the Topping D90 and can confirm its a great match with the HA-3A.

I know that was a big mistake since the LCD 5 is quite a boring listen and a big departure from the Audeze house sound. Expect an LCD 6 in a few years lol.

I did borrow the 2022 Utopia a few weeks ago and from memory the technical performance was better. I could hear leading edges of instruments on the new Utopia and not on the OG model. The bass seemed more pronounced on the new one and a bit more holographic in presentation but I will confirm my...

I would look at the LCD 4Z over the LCD 3 as it still has better bass impact, detail and overall technical performance.
