Best Headphone under 1k$?
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07K2LHB1J/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I had enjoyed using SoundMAGIC E11C while out of town for 3 weeks on May.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077XDWT7X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
But I also got HIFIMAN SUNDARA from Amazon 10 days ago to compare it with SoundMAGIC E11C .
Although I will keep SoundMAGIC E11C for travel, I enjoy the sound from HIFIMAN SUNDARA much better.
It sound open and balanced.
I use Chord Dave to drive it.
Now my question is whether there is any headphone under 1k$ which will sound significantly better than HIFIMAN SUNDARA.
I wish to get transparent and open sound out of it with just enough tight bass.
Of course, if it provides wide and deep soundstage, it will be better.
I do not wish to get bright sound.
Can anyone recommend best headphone under 1K$?
thanks in advance
Thomas

I hope everyone who has an interest in headphones will attend the SoCal CanJam event June 22 and 23 at the Irvine California Marriott Hotel. Easy to get to and near the Orange County Airport. This is a huge event with all the major manufactures attending. Please say hello if attending or give me a call. I will enjoy putting a face to my friends here at Audiogon.

The HIFIMAN Sundara looks very interesting. Maybe if my EE-600S v2 don’t work out. I’ve only got 250 hours to go. So, anyway, what are some good CDs for breaking in headphones/earbuds? I’m using Kraftwerk, B-52s, Beastie Boys, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark. Not that I’m actually listening to them, but you could. 🤗 |
I just took a sneak listen on day three of burn in just to see how things were progressing, and shut my mouth and call me corn pone if it didn’t sound like music. No bass to speak of yet, but dynamic and not tinny sounding like yesterday. Of course, it’s the B-52’s right now and they always sound good. Nevertheless.... |
I had got Grado extension cable from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Grado-Prestige-Headphone-Extension-Cable/dp/B00WC4B4JI/?tag=mfconvert-20 Connected to Dave with the Grado Extension, Hifiman RE800S earphone sounds fantastic with vivid details, clear soundstage and effortless dynamics. After Hifiman RE800S get burned in (it sounds little bit bright now), then I will compare it with Sundara. Thomas |
