I've had a fairly similar collection/progression... just with another (costly) step at the end.

KZ ES4 > KZ KS10Pro > Blon Bl-03 > MD Aria > Fiio FHE > Yanyin Mahina.

I've also had KZ ZST, KZ CRN, MD Quarks, and MD Chu.

How do the S12 compare to the Aria?

I’d say the s12 has a much wider soundstage with better separation (like different instruments seem to be playing at a different level if that makes sense). Also generally brighter and clearer then the arias.

Edit: Forgot to mention the s12 has a much better build quality and a really nice and thick silver looking cable, much better than the arias cable.
