Focal Clear Mg Review & Measurements
Have you considered the Audeze MM-500? I'm not the most experience in this price range but I really like the Clear Mg, MM-500, and Arya SE (if you don't mind the build quality). I've owned a few HifiMAN cans and never had an issue with parts failing. However, HifiMAN's build quality is nowhere...- MidFiMoney

Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!
I was concerned about the power until I heard it. It drives the D8000 Pro, MM-500, Clear Mg, and Arya SE wonderfully.- MidFiMoney

Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!
Still love and use mine but I recently got the DC-Elite and that this is the real king of the dongles in my opinion. It’s simply amazing! But I do agree, LP need to drop some new features/updates to keep the interest going. The dongle space is pretty crowded right now.- MidFiMoney

Focal Clear Mg Review & Measurements
I can’t fully answer the question but I did own the Clear Mg and Elex at the same time (a while ago). In my opinion the Clear Mg is superior but not by much. Additionally, I felt they were more alike than different. I felt there was too much overlap between them to keep both in the collection...- MidFiMoney

I’m curious to know more about how the DC-Elite compares to the Mojo2 (ie resolution, stage, separation, etc). 🤔- MidFiMoney

HIFIMAN Arya - Arya Stealth - Arya Organic :: Impressions Thread
Never heard the v2 or Organic but I owned the v1 and currently own the SE. If you have the budget for it, I would easily pay $900 for a new SE over a used v1 for $500. I think it’s the best value in hifi headphones right now. SQ wise, the SE is better in every way except stage width. From...- MidFiMoney

HIFIMAN Arya - Arya Stealth - Arya Organic :: Impressions Thread
I'm currently using the Dekoni case. I'm quite happy with it but it doesn't allow you lay the headphones flat. I honestly recommend avoiding storing any of the Arya headphones flat unless you're using a hard case. The issue is the headband becomes the thickest part of the headphones in that...- MidFiMoney

I asked Bloom Audio and they’re waiting to hear back from iBasso. So, it’s anyone’s guess at this time. I’m hoping Q1 2024.- MidFiMoney

HIFIMAN Arya - Arya Stealth - Arya Organic :: Impressions Thread
Yeah, I thought about the Organic as well. Everything, I’ve read and seen suggests that it is closer to the SE than the HEKse. Both have stealth magnets and nanometer thickness diaphragms. Not sure about the what’s going on inside the HEKse but it’s considered by many to be one of the most...- MidFiMoney

HIFIMAN Arya - Arya Stealth - Arya Organic :: Impressions Thread
I was running a Chord Hugo2 and Massdrop THX 789 when I had the HE1000se. The HEKse was and still is the most resolving headphone I’ve ever heard. My only frame of reference is the D8000 Pro since I owned it then and now. To my ears, the HE1000se was clearly more resolving than the D8000 Pro...- MidFiMoney

HIFIMAN Arya - Arya Stealth - Arya Organic :: Impressions Thread
I know we all perceive sound differently but I’m quite surprised to hear those impressions after an A/B comparison. There could possibly be some unit variation going on or maybe just differences between our source/signal chains. I currently own the Arya SE and previously owned the HE1000se for...- MidFiMoney

Hmmm… I might have to consider that. Not ideal but if they’re willing to give me a trade-in price HEKse, that might be the best possible outcome.- MidFiMoney

Soooo… I finally fell victim to HiFiMan quality issues. I’ve never been a fan of the cheap construction quality of their products but I just accepted it because I’m a fan of the sound. The adjustment mechanism started getting loose and began rattling more than normal on one side. I reached to...- MidFiMoney

I’m definitely interested in knowing how they compare to the D8000 Pro. I’m hoping the two of them can coexist nicely as I’m thinking that could be my end-game solution… at least for the foreseeable future.- MidFiMoney

Hahaha. The only reason I'm not considering the HE1000 Stealth is because I use to own the HE1000SE and I'm actually thinking about bringing them back into the collection. I doubt we'll get an HE2000 but I wouldn't be surprised if we see a silent revision of the HE1000SE in the future. Then...- MidFiMoney

Thanks for the perspective! I got into this hobby because I used to be big into electronic music production, so I tend to go for more neutral or engineer focused cans. That's something to consider for sure.- MidFiMoney
