hekse is really crazy in terms of soundstage, imaging, detail and separation. Everything is separated and present at different imaging points and nothing mask each other. It can still sound intimate too. Hifiman magic.

The Hekse's (and also Susvara's) ability at staging/imaging and separation is not only stunning, but it also appears to be impossible to challenge. They never lose that ability of presenting every element in a mix with that level of separation and clarity, literally never, even with the most complex and crowded tracks, where many other cans, even really good and expensive ones, begin to struggle resolving the layering and every element in the mix.

I update I'm happy to share - the Susvara with AIC10 is an absolute revelation. Magnificent bass I've never heard before from these headphones (on any speaker or top end headmpa) but, mostly, overall presentation is elvevated across the board with a magnificent, effortless, natural, rich and spacious voicing. A rare combination of power, clarity, and musicality. It set a new high bar for me and is a sheer joy. Try to demo it soon.. ;)

Caldera and Atrium Closed are the best of 2023 and could be the best headphones alongside with Atrium Open for quite some time. Imho ZMF have just much more agreeable allrounder tunings with less caviats than other brands, offering more unque traits than others in the same time. Agree on Susvara though - if you have a good amp and are not planning to play metal only on it, it might be the very top choice, especially for todays second hand price of 3- 3.5k

I didn't realize the "22" Utopia had that Camo/Faux Finish look until that pic you showed. Looks cool. I didn't care for the OG Utopia when I tried it. Really hot treble and very Amp picky. I felt it was very overpriced. I'd like to hear the 2022 version to hear the improvements. Had the HE1000 Stealth and liked it a lot. Gives you 85-90% of what there Susvara does for $1400 and is very easy to drive. Ending up selling it along with the Auteur Classic to buy a Stabilized Caldera which is my end game HP. I wouldn't mind adding a stabilized Atrium Closed Back at some point

Have you had a chance to try to the new Abyss Diana MR? I’m kinda curious about that one, and how it might compare to the Caldera. Those are two I wish I could hear before dropping cash. I’m glad the new Utopia made your list. That’s my number one. It’s so natural and maybe that’s just cause it’s a dynamic driver, music is mixed on dynamic driver speakers. I also own the HE1000 SE. I use that one mostly for watching movies because I think it excels at classical music. I probably prefer the LCD 5 more though as a high end planar. Probably because it matches the frequency response of my studio monitors more closely.

I have heard only half of these, but I have read a lot about all of them. If you ever get a chance to try the Hekse from a Mjolnir 3 (possibly fed by a Bifrost 2/64 or an Yggy), you might be at risk of wanting to change your ranking ;-) Absolutely ASTONISHING synergy! With this rig the Hekse just explodes with quality, easily wiping away any Stax I've heard, any Meze (empyrean or elite), LCD 4 or LCD 5, and Utopia. Even Susvara needs insane driving to match and surpass what you hear with Hekse + Mjolnir 3. I have never heard any ZMF or Raal, and I am very curious.

Hi, How about the HE1000 V2 Stealth compare to the HE1000SE ? Is it any better? I prefer soundstage, resolution and vocals. Thank you 🙏
@daniluzzu

HE1000SE is superior in any way. Huge stage, more resolution, more dynamics, more precise imaging and separation, and better tonal balance (V2 stealth can be peaky and with a sharp treble). Technically a clear step up.

Susvara is like the gaming equivalent of "can it run crysis? "😂 "Can it drive the susvara?"😂 But the bass of susvara still lacks the bass for a 6k headphone

Also another fix for 1266 is with Chord Dave, you can put crossfeed 2 and not only it enhances bass, the mid range comes forward and warm!
@bunsw2070

I use Susvara driven off an Audio Note UK Meishu 300B single ended integrated speaker amp. My 1266 sound horrific on that amp. I was thinking of adding a cross feed somewhere by adding a resistor across channels in the line input or something. I was just going to try this for the Susvara but maybe it will salvage the 1266 as well.
@kalakalaiand3343

Nice also i meant not driving 1266 directly from dave, when you plug in dave through headphone mode, it lets you change crossfeed setting. The setting you have left will remain in dac mode also. Rob watts confirmed it.

Resolution is determined by frequency response so you can use EQ to get maximum resolution out of any headphone.

I love my HE-1000se for metal. Better bass extension than the Arya Stealth, more punch. Kick drums and snares sound incredibly authentic and present. I think they’re great. Listen to a lot of avante garde and progressive metal (Thy Catafalque, Alcest, Leprous, etc.)
