I use this money back towards the quality of video of this channel. To see how, watch this video - Věda a technologie
Yep, pretty much answered every question that I've had, plus more! Thanks so much for the amazing work, Josh!
Josh, this is my favorite style of video. A big free for all and comparison of some of the most popular high-end headphones. Thank you for making clear distinctions and comments on how they are all different. Very informative and very helpful.
Got these around mid July because I missed my Arya V2s so much after selling them over a year ago, read about what they were trying to do with these and was instantly sold before they were for sale. These are the best headphone I’ve had or listened to for all my music genres, I’ve tried almost everything sub $2000. I use a Mjolnir 2 and it adds even more smoothness to it.
Wait another 4-6 months and there'll be another new version. They're turning to the chifi business model - pump and dump.
Your review are very good, but your video (light, editing, shots etc) are brilliant !!
Would be gr8 to have a behind the scenes vdo covering it, best luck
Yep, his videos make me watch even something I don't care about, just their quality makes it worth my time.
Now listening to you on Arya Stealths because of your review. Thank ya!
not sure if your're planning on another video of Arya Organic in terms of suited dac/amp options...if not what dac/amp (all in one) would you recommend for Arya Organic? Thanks
How is the Arya build if Focals have better build quality? I have owned Clear OG since 2018-2019 and the headband has always creaked. This seems to be common and a lot of people have issues with the headband breaking with standard use.
Another fantastic review Josh! Production editing & visuals, extremely high. Very comparable with MKBHD and Cars with Luke. I am subscribed to many channels and yours is one of the best for info & just viewing pleasure. Well done. 👍
Yeah, he's up there. The best ones relative to topics I like are MKBHD, Optimum Tech & Josh
thanks for this very informative video. helped me in my decision
so how do you feel it would handle big orchestras and vocals? I've found the previous versions were lacking in the midrange. For example the violins in a huge orchestral piece sounded recessed,. Thanks
Hey Joshua!
What about Arya Organic vs Meze Audio 109 PRO?
In terms of comfort, base response, sound staging?
You're really getting me at the edge of doing something crazy with my credit card with all this hype towards the Organic! I didn't even try it yet and I want it so bad 🤩
And they didn't even pay him to say all this
(lol)@@Yxzjvc
Me too, Amazon giving it easy 30 days return ....soo temped to give it a try to compare to my current 660s2. The only thing prevent me from pulling the trigger is build quality.
This hifi stuff will drive you insane! Lol…. We love it though!
Where can I find the frequency response of this headphone? @Joshua, would be glad if you could show the frequency response of the headphones you review. Thanks.
I have the Maxwell´s and they are okay found them to sound a little to Intimid and vocals to sound kinda slim. How do these compare. It would be around the max I would spend on a Headphone.
Had the DT1990 / Sundaras and now the maxwells.
I like the Maxwells but somehow they make me desire a bit more.
Wondering If I should give my Maxwell back and get this.
I have a fio5k atm, would that be sufficiant?
This sealed the deal for me. I have been rocking the HD6xx for years and keep thinking about upgrading but can never decide waht to get. After watching this and a few other videos I am going to get the Arya Organic.
Haven't heard the organic yet but I can tell you the 6XX aren't even in the same league as the Arya V3 Stealth. Excited to hear if/how the organic goes even higher.
Disclaimer: sometimes I go back to my older Sennheiser stable and still appreciate their grainy, less detailed, but intimate, romantic, rosy qualities, which are maybe easier to listen to longer. Especially before bedtime.
But in pure technical virtuosity an Arya vs a 6XX, it's like LeBron James vs. some athlete from the 1950's or something.
I'm envy you. I am using HD660s2. Really want to upgrade to this headphone too but I am waiting for it to go on sale for maybe $1k-$1100. Don't know how good of an upgrade and how long they can last vs Sennheiser 660s2 (which prob last easily 5-10 years)
@@PartyMusic775 Do all newer Arya including Organic improve in detail/resolution compared to OG Arya?
Please update us on whether you prefer the HD6xx or the Arya Organic once you get them.
@@Viewer13128there’s no way they’ll prefer the 6XX
How do these compare to the He1000 stealth? They are priced similarly but isn't the He1000 stealth supposed to be more of a flagship offering?
What would be a great AMP/DAC to pair with these headphones?
Short video, everything in it. I like it a lot. Thanks
Been thinking about buying the Organic but wanted to ask cause you meantioned it several times if the build quality is an issue with the Organic? And how is QC for these?
which one sounds better for call of duty the stealth or the organic?
So, lcd-x for music production is still one of the kings, or did the organic dethrown it?
Fantastic review, thanks!
Bruh, I was hesitating between the Arya and the LCD-X. I got my answer now. Thank you for this amazing review.
How would you compare the confort of Arya organic vs lcdx New model ? Btw can the organic be drove by mojo2?thanks
How big is it an upgrade from my Edition XS?
Josh what was your favorite amp and dac with these?
with the hd 800s you want to Eq them (more bass-sub bass, 6k a bit down) have a decent tube amp (some solids are fine too) and play around with different pads (i prefer perforated sheepskin) for them to rly shine.
the stock sound is ok, but now they are one of my favourites
EQ really makes the HD 800 shine but in the end it can't beat the bass response and impact of the Arya Organic. I'd be interested to see if any pads improve the bass though.
How would you compare it to hifiman he1000 v2?
I’ve been debating between the Arya Organic and HE1000 V2 Stealth. Which one will you choose?
Can I drive Aria Organic with new MacBook Pro? Because when I try Sundara, it was not successful.
Great comparison. You still have the DT1990Pro listed as one of your favorite headphones. I wish you would make comparisons to the DT1990pro more often. I am quite curious how this compares to the Organic as well.
Same here I main the DT1990 and have an Organic on the way.
I have the Arya stealth and listened to the organic in Munich. And the organic is way better then dt1990. I personally didn't like the dt1990 very much (owned them for around 5 months). In comparison to the Arya stealth they were very flat and nothing special to listen to imo.
@@ChristianRettig Which sounds most like the DT1990 the Arya Stealth or Organic?
@@Rev0ltTTV How is the Organic? I'm on a DT1990 and considering either the new HE1000 or the Organic but leaning Organic, please let me know thank you
@@SmartToaster It's great still getting used to the large earcups but don't have any issues with the sound signature even though it is warmer than the DT1990. I thought the bass would be too much like the meze 109 pro's I had but its tight and controlled. The treble is also fun and soundstage is amazing. The stock cable is short(1m) so getting a custom one made for it. I haven't heard the other hifimans but coming from the DT1990 I can totally recommend it. I prefer the Organic with a more neutral amp like the thx887 where I prefer my warmer Jotunheim 2 with my DT1990. Keep in mind I'm still burning in the Organic.
My personal setup is a SMSL SU9/SH9 stack and a Xduoo MT-604 and boy this new Arya is just something special until… I heard the same Arya Organic on a friend’s SMSL VMV D1/A1 stack and it sounded even bigger, punchier and just so much better from my setup! I’m guessing it will scale well with higher end equipment and some class A juiciness will do wonders on the Organic! That VMV A1 is no joke with just 1W of power is just ridiculously powerful and musical.
Hi Josh, what do you think for Arya Organic - Fiio K7BT or stack Topping A50s/D50s?
I have the LCD-X and I've listened to the MM 500 which I preferred more. I've heard the Arya Stealth, but I've never heard the Arya Organic
does ''best out of both worlds'' mean, the same soundstage as arya v1/v2 and same bass as arya stealth? or does arya organic have worse soundstage than arya v1 v2 and if so, by how much? thinking about getting aryav1 v2 vs organic
also, what about the he1000 v2 or he1000 v2stealth vs arya organic? since they are on similar price i think many would be interested in that comparison..thanks
I wanna know which is better he1000v2 stealth or arya organic. At 100 usd difference. Its really a tough choice
he1000 @@joshuaamon8236
The one that I wanted a comparison to the most for was the Meze 109 Pro.
I have the 109 pro and recently had the stealth arya's and they are pretty close but the edge went to the arya's in Soundstage and bass. I only A-B tested for a brief time and was surprised that the 109's were close as it was. Close enough for me to send the arya's back because I wanted a planar to compliment my 109's. I'm currently looking into the he1000 V2 stealths or maybe even these organics now to purchase as the planar compliment to the 109's. The 109's definitely punch above their price point in build and sound quality, they are just tuned perfect for me.
is the Arya Organic much more detailed than the Arya V1?
Very nice comparison video, thanks.
The pink reflection on the headphones looks really cool
Ladies and gentlemen… the video we’ve all been waiting for 😎
Finally 😁😁
Here it is boys!
Thank you so much!😊
How clampy is it when compared with Ananda Nano?
What didn't you like about the Audivina? I tried it at CanJam and really liked it, but I think it's way too expensive!
Great review! I’m extremely impressed with the quality of your audio. What mic do you use? Thanks!
*How does an Arya Organic compares to a Koss ESP/95X?*
Hi josh! do you think that the shchiit magni+ can drive this bad boy?
I would've liked a comparison with Edition XS even if they're not in the same price class. But I'm curious how the sound of a headphone that costs more than twice as much compares to the Edition XS
That too! I'm scared I should upgrade.
i'm sitting here with the xs on my head, seriously contemplating checking out the new arya organic. but there is still this voice in my head that says: don't demo it!
Same here. Love my XS and have a feeling if I try the Arya Organic I'll end up buying it. Also curious about the HE1K Stealth, but that's another 50% more on top (here in Aus at least).
👀
So if the Organic is the best of both worlds between the OG Arya’s wide stage and massive height/scale but worse frequency response tuning and timbre, and the Stealth Arya’s better tuning/FR/timbre but loss in Stage/Height/Scale, then are you saying that the Organic does have a slightly smaller size in its Staging/Height/Scale than the OG? And if it is not quite to the same level as the OG Arya, do you think it is mostly due to the improvements in tuning, where the extra warmth would shrink the staging/scale/height or does it sound like it’s because of the new driver technology?
As far as everyone seems to be saying, yes the soundstage is slightly smaller than the the og Arya. They seem to all say it's close enough to where the upgrade outweighs the downgrade, but then again, all the Stealth owners also said the same thing. So I guess the Organic is "closer", but we can also wait 6 months for their next model. 😅
@@thunderstar254 Yeah that seems to be what I think too. You really think there will be another Arya that soon? The stealth and organic are both very new, I think they’re going to chill out and let these go for a while…
@@camoturtle18 Purely guessing here but I could see another revision by late 2024/early 2025. But regardless, it seems like if you're in the market for your first Arya, now's as good a time as any. The Arya line still punches far above its weight, including the V2. If you already have 4k+ top tier cans, then the Organic can play the role of best all-rounder.
You can find V2s for 600-700 nowadays (or ~900 with a year of warranty directly from Hifiman), and considering its flaws can easily be corrected with EQ, along with it's still unique renowned staging, it was a no-brainer to me 😁
Curious how you would compare these to the Meze 109 Pro...anyone have both?
109 is not in the same technical performance as a arya. It's more comparable to something like a ananda
Man ive been looking and looking for a headphone with this kind of sub bass or at least tactile slam.
Would the z1r mdr have stronger bass? Please someone let me know
I'm currently looking at either the Focal clear MG or the Arya organic. I think this video just helped me make up my mind, thanks!
I'm trying to make the same decision. Where did you end up? Have you purchased anything yet? If so, do you like it?
@@gpolucci They're both very nice headphones. That being said, I eventually went with the Arya Organics. I think they combine the best characteristics of previous Arya versions and they sound phenomenally good. Detail retrieval, tonality, sound stage and tuning are all excellent. They also scale very well with the abilities of your headphone amp so to some extent are future-proofed. The focals had marginally better bass thump but to my ears didn't have the same level of detail or size of sound stage. Overall I'm extremely happy with the Aryas.
@@DarkFire515 Thanks man. You were the final straw, and I just ordered the Arya Organic. Really looking forward to hearing it. Next step - find a great portable DAC to drive my iPhone. I already have a Naim Uniti Atom for stationary listening.
@@gpolucci Good stuff, I'm sure you'll really enjoy them. Two points I forgot to mention are the comfort and the cables. Comfort is subjective to a degree but the Organics are insanely comfortable - I've worn them for 8 or even 10 hour listening sessions with zero discomfort. Last point - they come with 2 cables: an XLR and quarter inch terminations. The cables are... OK but not wonderful. That being said the earphone-side cable terminations are bog standard 3.5mm so finding an upgraded after-market cable will be very easy.
I love my Hifiman HE1000SE, EQd. I've added a touch more bass and pulled back some of the higher frequencies until I achieved lots of detail with a wonderfully increased (width) soundstage. I now have the sound signature of the HE1000v2 Stealth (which IMO has the greatest tuning I have ever heard) but with that clarity that is known to the SE and the HE1000v2 Stealth simply cannot match. But the one thing that surprised me the most is the absolutely phenomenal, beautiful build quality of the SE. You can move it around as much as you want... not a single sound. 100% silent. Super adjustable on ear/head. And it simply feels and looks like an ultra premium piece of gear. When it went on sale from $3500 to $1999 for father's day this year, I jumped on it and the HE1000v2 Stealth. I loved them both for different reasons. EQd them both. Liked the HE1000v2 Stealth better without EQ. Its tuning was just perfect. The SE EQd though... unbeatable. Simply perfect to my tastes. Can't wait to find another headphone that makes me feel this incredibly satisfied when I listen to it. Because I will buy it immediately.
Thanks for this. I never equ'd headphones.. every time I tried it was worst :) I'm weak at that techniqal area. I'm about to decide weather to buy the SE or the V2 and I cans make up my mind lol . Which one of them you consider more exciting, more enjoyable? I have like 1 hour a day tops to enjoy headphones and I want the best excitement I can get . Which one of them gave you more 'wow' effect out of the box ?
@@TheSaassaf I'm also considering the SE or HE100 stealth but I'm waiting for more reviews on the Hedd Two headphone..they seem like a worthy contender, aspecially if you're sensative for treble
Would love your EQ for the HE1000SE
A question from a headphone noob... So, i am a speakers person, and I am thinking to buy my first headphones. I do not have a desktop setup / dedicated headphones amplifier.. I am planning to use the headphone amp in my integrated stereo amp (Accuphase E380 & Denafrips Venus II).
My question is - in your opinion - how far the HiFiMan lineup of headphones can I go before the accuphase internal headphone amplifier becomes the bottleneck?
It is impossible to try those headphones at home unfortunately.
Do you think it is worth it buying the Arya Organic, or it would be preferable to settle with something like the Sundara until - if ever - i decide to get a dedicated headphone amp?
i was a speakers guy, geithain RL906 whith sub. i produce since 20 years..
1 year now i rabbitholed the headphone thing😅😇
i have: stellia, arya, HD660s, sundara, NDH 20, AKG 701 and my fave 4 the road porta pros😃 and a couple in ears
i whould recomand 2 u get 1 of this ~200 bugs ifi CAN DAC/AMPs as source
and find 2 headphones that u like ...
one planar driven they have a special airy fast sound
and a dynamic like HD600 series they have a grainy physical sound
hope that helps
and dont buy cheap u wont regret🤗
i have the Philips SHP 8500 with Brainwavs pads. HIFIMAN Deva, Tackstar 82pro Bose QC 35 II. I dont know what to buy next. For me the Philips and Deva sounds amazing. I cant choose wich one is better. Iam 47 and think that even Sennheiser S800 and Hifiman Arya Oganic are no improvement for me.
Well, I was in doubt when upgranding my 8 year old HD600. I was thinking of the Focal clear because it has better everything, including bass. But then the Arya Organic came I know I'm sure I will buy it. Hope the QC stays by my side when buying it
Just ordered mine from hifiman directly. Amazon says a Sept 8th ship date. Hifiman was able to ship to NJ from NY within the week for me. Thanks for this video. I had however already made up my mind based on your other video lol. Thank you.
Please do a comparison video of the latest Hifiman lineup given how they have multiple versions of the same names
Arya Stealth was my favorite headphone, but I had to return it due to pain inside my ears. I tried everything from drilling bass ports in the pads (to release bass pressure), to EQing, and nothing seemed to make a big difference. It was a very sad day when I returned them, and so far nothing matched their airy, magical soundstage and feel. What are the chances that the Organics would be any different? Is it the oval earpad design?
Yo you're the first person I've come across since researching headphones to buy to say this that reminds me of my own situation, I didn't realize till a few weeks ago that I found what other people call normal or good sub bass painful and fatiguing for me, because I used a HD579 for 6 years which has no sub bass stock but enough mid bass that I didnt find painful and plenty of punch but they otherwise sound very open and easy to use all day. When I finally learned to eq them which added sub at the same time I bought the hifiman XS I realized that I hated sub bass. Because it HURTS. It feels like wind buffet in a car window being punched into your ear hole. And it overwhelmed all the upper range and detail for me, the sound level I wanted it at to hear the upper range clearly- the bass would be overwhelming. Yes it can sound impressive, but I literally have to eq all the sub bass out of things now when the content has it
So I currently had returned the XS because no way could I wear them for even a few minutes eqed plus a faulty left jack port that felt jenky and not secure (though I need to learn how to eq more of what I need to target) and got the Ananda nano next hoping they are less sub, more upper and detail focused like they claim.... Also eyed the Organic but out of my price range and if I cant eq bass if needed on nano then I dont know what go with next... back to my sub deleted 579s then for life lol Maybe were just ultra low frequency sensitive I dont really see other enthusiasts talk about it
@@LastAphelioninterestingly enough, I bought the HE1000 Stealth recently w/ the oval cups, and have not experienced the same pain. I can't say for sure that it's a certain frequency like sub-bass in my case, but I know it's not inherently the oval design.
Any plans to look into the ZMF lineup more?
I got a question and it might sound silly but I was looking to get the HD800S from Sennheiser cause on top of being a great headphone for music it also has great capabilities in gaming. And if I invest so much money into a headphone, I would also like to use it for gaming obviously. Now how does the Arya Organic hold up in gaming? Since it trashed the HD800S in basically every category, does it translate to gaming performance as well?
I’d wager it comes down to what kind of gaming you’re doing. If you’re playin fps games a majority of the time, the 800s is generally considered the best choice for its WIDER soundstage. Can’t really speak for the organics just yet (i’ve got a pair coming very soon!) but purely anecdotal, i’d imagine they’re preferable for a more immersive experience, we’re talking large single player games or more cinematic experiences for example, can’t give you anything exact unfortunately
@@longtong9039 thank you for the answer :) I play pretty much everything. So since you're getting one and assuming you're also gaming... If you care to share some first hand expierence once you got your hands on the Arya Organic, it would be greatly appreciate it :)
Just get some HD6XX and some planars.
I find mine excel for gaming and your can pin point where enemies are.
You do NOT want huge amounts of bass as it makes gaming fatiguing.
I find my HD6XX are perfect, yet I used them for mixing too.
I have HD600s but they're old and worn, DT770 and 990s, which I found too much bass for gaming, even my XR2 Phillips are too heavy on bass.
It also depends on what type of games you're going to be playing.
@JoshuaValour thank you for the nice and complete video.
Only one suggestion, when you are comparing against other models, yo repeat many times “this headphones”, and is very confuse to know if you are referring to the Arya Organic or to the other model which you’re comparing with. It’s much better if yo name both headphones.
I really haven’t understand if you prefer the Arya Organic or the HD800 for example. English isn’t my native language, perhaps it’s me, but I really think is much better than to say the names.
Regards.
Arya Organic vs He1000 v2 Stealth? I just received my HEKV2SE yesterday and it’s blowing me away. So incredibly detailed and precise while still being very dynamic and fun.
Ignore what he is saying about Arya being close to he1000, it’s not even close, also with soundstaging
The SE is $700 dollars more and harder to drive, so if you have the amp and budget for it, then it's an upgrade for sure.
you mean that for 1000se or also 1000v2 and 1000v2 stealth? @@kajetan9550
@@NRobbi42The He1000 stealth aka He1000 v2 stealth is *not* the same as the He1000se. OP is talking about the He1000 stealth which comes in at $1400 as opposed to the $2000 of the He1000se.
@@kajetan9550Which He1000 are you referring to? The He1000 stealth or the He1000se?
It so happens I just recently did a direct comparison between the Arya Organic and the Audeze MM-500. I'm not a tech person and don't know how to do all that graph stuff; I just listen and determine which sounds better to me. The two were very close, almost a toss-up. However, the Organic emerged as the winner because the sound was just a little more "realistic" in certain details: the sound of drums and cymbals, for example. On the other hand, that Audeze comes in a nice (although plastic) carrying case with a storage bag inside, while the Organic just comes in a cardboard box.
If I was in the market, I'd probably get this one. But my EQed Arya V2 is just about perfect.
thank ou for callin out the hd800s like that. I never liked that headphone and its raved about for like everything. It doesnt make sense to me
Your sets, lighting, design, props, background music; all great! Suggestion - try less of a reflection in your glasses. Other than that - fantastic vids and I always enjoy watching.
Reflection in glasses: not on this vid as much but in others it can be like whaaaat!
More Comparisons to the 1990pros would be awesonme!
I've been trying to upgrade my M1060c open , do you think these are worth it? I esp love the sub bass rumble on the M1060c open and it's just a great value and wondered if the Arya Organic is finally the upgrade I've been looking for. Thanks !!
I bought my second pair of those last year, and they were completely missing the rumble I had on the first pair 🥲 Hopefully my ears aren't broken lol
@@tylerthere5832 OH Nooooo
Serious Question, what does ear gain mean?
Meze 109 pro in comparison to the organic?
Looks like an intriguing option. I just wish ZMF made it into these comparisons.
Is this better than the Diana V2?
The Susvara can have monster ear smashing bass, but it requires a lot of power. It starts with a great speaker amp like the Benchmark AHB2, and goes uber-Godzilla-slam with two AHB2s in monoblock. Its a little scary though with 400 watts per channel hooked up to your ear drums via a pair of headphones. But if you love slam, thats how you can get it with the Susvaras. With weaker amps it sounds like someone unplugged your subwoofer.
Susvaras bass with my Bakoon 13r really does hit rather hard.
Since you haven't heard the MM-500, I'm happy to send you mine if you want to compare it!
The 1000 SE is different than the 1000 Stealth right?
The HE1000se is the best of the Egg shape. The 1000 Stealth is the V2 with stealth magnets.
Now the comparison between arya organic and Abyss Diana MR. Now is it really worth more than double the price? The points that interest me in the first place are the soundstage, after that the BASS, and after that the singing voices.
Arya Organic
idk why but the latest hifiman lineup such as organic and nano has increased their upper treble region. sometimes I miss their 'old' tuning like sundara
hifiman ever could do treble region right? doubt so...
Where is Ananda?! I have Ananda v3 and Arya organic tested on fiio k7. And it almost the same in case of sq
Which Ananda v3 the Nano? I'm hesitating between the Nano and Arya Organic. How different are they? Is the soundstage noticeably better on the Organic? fiio k7 is powerful enough to reveal the difference if there's any.
I’m unable to spend the many $1000’s which some of these high end headphones cost😱🤯, but I was able to score a really really awesome price on an ex-display window model Focal Clear OG ☺🤤🫠here in Australia 🇦🇺 earlier this year and to say I was blown away with the sound was an understatement! The Focal Clear OG is the perfect headphone for me and love it’s sound both music and single player open world gaming which is magical 🧙 imo. Regardless of your budget, you can find some very very good sounding headphones 🎧which is a great thing as sone hobbies etc you only get good or great stuff by spending on the high end.
What shop in Australia? I struggle to find affordable headphones here. I have gotten some direct from China or England.
Ooooh sounds like something I would like!!
my reference Diana TC. I like the HFM sound too though if Diana is out of someone's budget.
Would be nice a comparation against Senheisser 109 Pro witch is in same price range.
Already out of stock on Amazon. :( Really want to try these.
My only question: law of diminishing return… what does this headphone truly accomplish that the edition Xs with the Peace EQ settings can’t?
I have the XS. What are Peace EQ settings?
@@tylerstravis it’s a free software EQ for your computer that allows you custom design the sound that the headphones produces to your ears
@@TheDigitalcrack thanks, I use EQ, I just thought this may be different.
I bought the Arya (non stealth) before this review. Maybe I'll need to switch to the organic at some point, but the Arya is just amazing to me -- especially compared to the Sennheiser 660s
Eq accounts for all the flaws, simply pair a class A amp and a quality warm dac
What's the deal with the series x controller 😅
Sounds like these might be great headphones for pleasure for many genres. I have LCD-5's coming in a few days and I am using an RME 2/4. I am boosting the bass +3.0 which is a bass shelf. Maybe I start to dial in the EQ with the graphic EQ latter. I hope the LCD-5 will be great for mixing and mastering and the bass boost should make it feel a little more flat. Also more pleasure when the songs have been mixed and mastered well. It might show a lot of mistakes on poorly done recordings. I might still get these organics to listen for pleasure and the focal Stellias for a great set of closed backs. These might not even add to what I already have...Arya Stealths, 2 sets of Focal clear MG's, DT 1990 and 1770 Pros, AKG 720, AKG 271, DT990, closed headphones for drumming extreme iso's, vic firths, Etymotics in ears and some less expensive closed backs. I hope the LCD-5's are my end game for a few years, Then maybe Stellias for closed backs, and maybe organics for pleasure. I like the clear MG's for hearing details and punch, all of the phones sound nice through the DAC / AMP RME 2/4, very clear and detailed. Are the Organics and Stellias a good addition?
The LCD 4 is my main headphone and i use the HEKSE for light listening and gaming. The HEKSE is god levels for gaming because of its imaging and depth.
what are the HEKSE headphones?
@@JohnSmith-bn7bl Hifiman HE100SE
@@Leon-lg7zm thanks.
Careful, Josh - you are verging on Zeos' levels of new toy joy, and we've all seen how THAT works out ;)
Seriously, thanks for the effort you've put into this - my anti-HiFiMan bias aside, its great to see this and the Audeze Maxwell getting raves when the focus is routinely directed at 4K+ headphones. Good luck with the channel.
Havent heard the Aryas myself but am very satisfied owning a HE1000V2. Happy that you mentioned a comparison between these two and I hope to be able to listen to the Aryas soon.
It beats so many things, but I feel like my 800s will make it to the 20 year mark meanwhile all my hifiman stuff fell apart in 2 years 😭. Scared of dropping a lot of money on anything from them.
Exactly! I won't spend my money on any of their products. They need to improve QC! I know a guy that has 3 broken sundaras!
My sundara is going on three years old, and it is like new. I just make sure I'm careful with it.
yeah, I definitely handle them extremely carefully. Aryas v2 doing well after 3 years.
QC control isn't that good but when you get a good one, it's good. My HE400i's are 5 years old and I don't exactly baby them but aside from a headband and pad change, they're almost like new
Well, I´m also on my third sundara... get your shit together HIFIMAN >:(@@KingdomKey57
“I’m pretty sure it’s a little more detailed than this headphone”. The HE1000se is a clear step up in detail. Curios what amps you’re using & if that’s bottlenecking performance on higher end cans.
maybe its the hype-up-new-product-no-matter-what amp he used on organic thats making it close
@@ssolx5527 I know for sure his Diana TC review was mainly “new toy syndrome”. Lol
I had Arya Stealth which I enjoyed for a year and then upgraded to HE1000SE. It was not a small step up. In another league from the bass, detail and much smoother treble. Certain tracks on Arya used to sting in the treble. I'm having a tough time thinking this Organic is better than the HE1000SE. 🤔
Also, the he1000se does NOT have a intimate soundstage? It’s huge.
For some reason I thought your hair was a different color. Am I tripping?
I need a DAC/amplifier for these headphones for my pc, any suggestions
D400ex/a70 pro
Arya better than the HEKse?
No words
Definitely not!
man, I'm so close to pulling the trigger on this one... I just wish it was higher impedance so I can use with OTL tube gear. Would be a sweet headset for my solid state gear though.
What dacs do you recommend with the organic?
Yes
Will the Arya Organic replace the Arya OG on his favorite headphones list?!
Bro hasn't edited that list in decades
I already have an Arya V2 but I's love to hear this one. I more likely have an HE1000 variant in my future though, not interested in actually paying for another Arya variant.
V2 has terrible treble
I also have the V2's, and don't see myself needing any other Arya variations. I used an EQ from APO, and it's perfect, completely perfect. Wouldn't change a thing. I'm most likely just going to "graduate" to an HE1000SE and Focal Utopia from this point on.
@@doyoulikecrystalgel I need to add one worthy planar to collection but now a days I rather to buy modhouse tungsten
@@soulfulfool oh speaking of, how's the tungsten? I've heard amazing things about it.
@@doyoulikecrystalgel no idea xD Ryan is selling out really fast so its hard to get
Timbre? Please.
And here i am, just after a few months with the A90D + Arya V3 combo, wondering in the middle of the darkness...
