Do you know decent IEM? Would you recommend something? I've already have overhyped TRN VX and some low-end KZ.

I'm afraid there is a big mistake to try very expensive headphones without any possibility to buy it in the nearest future. May I ask, are you happy?

All the gear were sold without losing money so I tried it for free. Does Ananda or any other headphones over 300$ worth the money? The Sundara provides all detail I can imagine. In addition hi-end headphones are required an appropriate dac\amp or my setup is quite enough?

Nope. I hope it's Easter egg from iFi.

The main problem I had a high expectations for the Sundara. I'd consulted here in Reddit before decided to buy HiFiMan. They said Sundara is great for dimensional ambient, electronic, hip-hop and female vocal oriented music. Mostly agree with this advice but still looking a way to make midrange more smoother. I like smoothness of vinyl sound so tube amp might solve that imperfection.

The other 3 headphones I tried mostly out of curiosity to hear correlation between price and sound quality. First couple of hours with HE 4xx I really was thinking to sell Sundara) Now I have no doubt the 300$ headphones are more neutral and overall better.

I'd listened non-neutral V-shaped sound all my life so neutrality now is the breath of fresh air. More so it can be corrected in one way or the other using different type of DAC/AMP gear. I'm afraid I'm looking for a fun headphones completely opposite the Sundara.

No, I'm already done.

I have KZ and TRN iems which I suppose the same as your choice.

Are there other decent headphones on the market besides HD 600 series? I'm not a fan of claustrophobic soundstage and veiled midrange.

Well, I think it's true, at least that amp sounds good but I gonna try balanced output of Zen Dac which is real.

Damn, that sticker provides +30% to soundstage and +50 mW of power ;) I've connected SH8s exactly for these reasons.

Deezer HiFi more than enough. I can't hear difference between flac file from hard drive and streaming.

I bought B-Stock item and it still literally like new besides ear pads of course.

It's all about addiction to one single pair headphones. I've been finding exactly "that" sound last half of year and noticed that Sundara doesn't provoke me for fresh emotions. Some youtubers say you need a second pair to refresh feelings but I don't know.

Hey there. I've finally completed my desktop setup: HifiMan Sundara, ifi Zen Dac v2 and SMSL SH8s. Not sure this is a great combination but I'm not able to search for something else.

I've been falling in love with Sundara for the last half of the year. Nevertheless my brain needs some fresh emotions, which I didn't get with HE 4xx, HD58x and Deva Pro as second alternative headphones - they are slightly worse. I'm not able to buy something from the Sennheiser 600 series and don't want especially after 58x.

This is not a very happy end game for me, but I'm done. Ready to answer the questions about that gear.

I've been listening Sundara last half of the year and all that time hunted for upgrade sound from Zen Dac. To be honest I've finished this game too early. I sold DT 770 Pro in favor of Sundara's neutrality and had chance to try HE 4xx, HD 58x and Deva Pro (and compare them). Sundara is definitely better headphone but difference of price, not quality, so significant, my wallet says stop finding rabbit in the hole. So I get stuck with that gear and happy only about 80%. Maybe a second pair of headphones for example 6xx would make me feel better? I'm joking. Audiophilia is a disease.

It depends on expectations, doesn't it?
