I have a pair of Hifiman Edition xs; what am I missing out on with the Anandas?

You knew.

theyre close, I just believe the Ananda stealth is better. But if you have one no need to get the other, save you money for an Arya if you like the hifiman sound

Anandas sound even a bit more 'clean' than the XS, slightly less bass, slightly more treble. Slightly more detailed I've heard.

Oh dang even cleaner than the xs sounds nice but the bass response on the XS is exquisite.
