best will be one that has even balance across spectrum and has the best HRTF and HpTF coupling to your ear and hearing system
the ones you've listed all have quirks I detest.
one of the better ones I've heard is the Moondrop Laputa

Hi all,
I wanted to share a selection of the best planar magnetic headphones that can be found for under $1,000 on the second-hand market.

What are your thoughts? Do you see any obvious (or less obvious) candidates that are missing?

@soix HiFiMan HE1000 Unveiled,Susvara Unveiled,Audeze LCD3 & Abyss JOAL... The cost/performance ratio compared to the other more expensive cans left me gobsmacked and saved me about $1400.00... |
I'm using a pair of modified Aurorus Audio Quasar headphones. They're not the best at any one thing but are really good at everything. What sticks out in my mind is the frequency tuning and the pleasing treble. Given that, I'm planning on buying a pair of the HIFI Man Arya Unveiled. I might wait until the price comes down because I am sure that I'll need the flagship Schiit equalizer to support them. You might be able to find the Ayra Unveiled pre-owned for close to $1,000.00. |
@freediver - please tell me where I can get Susvara Unveiled for under $1000 second-hand, which is what this thread was about? That would make a great Christmas present! |
