I have been researching an upgrade from the Sundara..There are SEVERAL professional reviewers who have listed the Sundara as an "A Tier"headphone in the timbre category & "B Tier"in the Technical categories of staging & imaging,making them a solid "B Tier"headphone & ABSOLUTE stone cold bargain for their meager asking price!!!
ALL my research is pointing to having to spend at least $1000.00+ to get a big upgrade in sound!
Hifi Man Sundaras!
Anyhow, just great little cans for not much $!

@deep_333 FWIW I was able to drive my HE400S (98dB sensitivity) with an AQ Dragonfly Red. The Sundaras are 92dB but still may be worth a shot if you can return the Dragonfly just in case. Not surprisingly sound quality was significantly improved over using the 3.5mm jack from my iPhone/iPad if that’s your benchmark (I use Qobuz as a source BTW). Incidentally I got a significant bump in performance for not much incremental $$$ by swapping the Apple Camera Adapter for one from LavriCables — very worthwhile upgrade IME. Hope this helps somewhat. |
@soix . Thanks, i have an older dragonfly somewhere...will check it out. |
