I think hek se is not worth it. Unless you plan to run it off an extremely high end tube amp, youd have a much better experience with regular hek (or even arya honestly, the difference between arya and new hek is extremely small).

My suggestion would be to try and find some stax lambda signature in good condition with an srd-7 energizer. Sony ta-n86b is a very good amp pairing for vintage stax as well if you can source one. I know this is all vintage gear, but they really dont make them like they used to when it comes to...

Issue has been resolved, appreciate the help!

Selling my schiit yggi A1. (230v EU) Its got a very minor scratch on the front (can see it in pics, its above the inverter button) but you only see it at specific angles/certain lighting. Everything works as expected, i run both xlr and rca out of it. Overall, its a pretty awesome dac. Im sure...

Oh, and ive not tried to remove and re-enable 2fa. So dont think thats the issue :P

Its been ~20h since ive enabled 2fa and all conditions were met, nothing yet.

Hello to who ever is reading :P I seem to be having some sort of an issue, i believe that i meet all the required criteria (15+posts, account created in 2021 and ive enabled 2fa about 24h ago), but i still cant seem to post a listing in classifieds. Ive tried the log in-log out trick but it...

Personally, if i was to get 2 end game setups, they would have to be unique. So for me, 2 end game setups would be 1 sus/hek v1 setup, and another one with e-stats (aka, stax), since it actually a different enough experience to warrant spending big money on.

Realistically, if youre looking for the best price to performance, then ~15-25$ iem's with a nice dongle (like meizu hifi black). But if were talking realistic end game for not an insane price, for me, Hifiman edition xs with cayin iha6 (or even schiit jotunheim 2) and ifi zen dac would be it...

Honestly, meze lyric is easily the best closed back ive ever heard (excluding golden lxc-xc, but those are as rare as hens teeth), so this could be promising. Tho, the new-ish beyer 700pro is genuinely great, and easily matches meze's stuff for build quality at a lower price, so meze better pull...

TOOOOOOOOOL

I dont see a point in the 58x when 560s exists. 560s is honestly the best headphone sennheiser put out ever since the whole Axle saga (excluding some hd800's, if thats your preff).

yah, it was pretty underwhelming. Ive also had a qutest for about a year and own aryas for several, so the only difference in the chain was anni. I honestly couldnt tell you what the sound profile was since that was about a year ago in canjam, but i recall i was not impressed.

I think you might enjoy old school stax. Some of them absolutely blow sus out of the water for pure detail (like stax lambda signature). Tho there not what youd call natural sounding lol. its a very different experience.

If i had to compare headphones to cars, which is another big love of mine, id say susvara is like a bugatti (not that ive been in one lol). Its lean, mean, and very impressive technically. It looks good, it feels good inside, and theres absolutely nothing wrong with it. But hek v1 is that old...
