🎧 HIFIMAN Arya Over-Ear Planar Magnetic Audiophile Headphone - Full-Size & Adjustable Review

I ordered these headphones based on all the positive reviews I heard on YouTube. I have to say they exceeded the reviews I saw. I also have Focal Clears and they are excellent, but this takes it a step further. My gear is a Topping D90 MQA DAC, a Monoprice Liquid Platinum headphone amp (perfect for these headphones), and I'm a Tidal HiFi/MQA subscriber. These headphones are more than worthy of this accoutrement and bring an unrealistic realism to the music. These are earphones that will last a…

I have owned or currently own the following: Focal Elexfocal Eleaoppo PM-2Audeze Sineaudez A91 Sirius and many more. Arya is simply the best, especially at this price point. Impact, detail reproduction, rendering, layering and stage height/width are all excellent. The tonal balance is almost ideal in my opinion. Low and high frequencies are well expanded and reproduced in detail. The mids are very lively and natural. Perhaps the only flaw I can point to is the build quality, but expect HIFIMAN…

available I have quite a lot of headphones. Audeze LCD-XC, Focal Utopia, Sure se846. I'm in love with Arya. While the Focal Utopia is super-resolution and much brighter than the Arya, I was immediately blown away by the Arya's texture and soundstage. I listen to loads of music, mostly classical, and one amazing thing is these headphones paired with my DAC and amplifier (Pro-Ject DAC and now Valhalla 2). Good quality recordings are taken to a new level and of course very well made recordings are

I did a great deal of research before purchasing the Hifiman Arya headphones. This initially consisted of many hours of Youtube listening by qualified people doing comparisons and reviews. My favorite columnist on Youtube was Joshua Valur. I paired the Arya with an SMSL M400 DAC and a Monoprice Monolith THX amp (both best in class for their price and found on Revain). After setting everything up, I absolutely loved Aryas. The amount of detail, wide soundstage and airy feel of the music was…

There are no perfect headphones. This is what makes some of us spend money to find 'one' pair of headphones that will make you forget you have others, including the HD800. It is usually compared to the HD 800. The HD800 are great headphones and they do everything you read about them. Sometimes it can just sound perfect, and then a few more songs and you can't master the whole song because it sounds awful on the HD800. I didn't have this problem with Arya. Until I get rid of my HD800, T1 2…

Longtime music lover and over the last 3 years I have more and more abandoned my living room setup in favor of quality headphones. I started out with closed-back headphones for work etc, but some life changes have made it possible to listen to open-ear headphones without fear of disturbing anyone nearby. It never occurred to me to invest that amount in headphones. How can a set of lenses match the quality of my full size rig? Also, headphones can be easily hit and damaged, right? Why would I…
