"But i cant give up on that 5%"... Because enjoyment is not technical. Enjoyment is not based on measurements. Your increase in enjoyment is much higher than 5% with the Ananda over the Sundara. And that is why you could not place them in the box and place the Sundara on the table. This is the lesson we, as music enthusiasts, need to learn early on, and give a hefty volume of respect to. This is the first of your videos i have seen. I loved it. Beginning to end. New sub here. I am also an Ananda owner, as well, and agree with your statements about how "visceral" they are. I love the physical rumble effect they have (thanks for the Wizkid rec). Keep up the great work, Adam!

Ngl I’ve been looking for a good comparison of these two for like 2 months and I’m so weirded I got it from your channel lol

Hey Adam! Thanks for the review, gave me a more realistic feeling and natural experience of headphones than the complex technical terms. Helped me purchase my first planar magnetic headphones Hifiman Ananda. Really happy with the sound. Keep up the good work.

You've had a channel for 10 years and I'm only finding it now?! Great comparison and exception production quality. THAnK YOU

Great video. I'll throw in my 2 cents since I've had the Sundara, Ananda and Arya. All 3 are great sounding headphones. I think the Ananda is worth double the price of the Sundara... but after listening to the Arya a few weeks.... I'm not sure they are worth double the Ananda. At $700... the Ananda could be the benchmark headphone in this price range. The Ananda used to be $1000... and now at $700 is a steal

@@Reeeepicheep Yeah it's tough not being able to listen to each headphone and decide. I was lucky to be able to get an Ananda and Arya on the same day to A/B test/compare them. I'm sure Amazon doesn't like me abusing their return policy... but it's the only way to really test out different headphones. The Arya are similar to the HD 800s in some ways imo and I own an HD 800s and what I use on it is a Schiit Lokius tone control/EQ which allows me to add some Bass, smooth the treble and basically play producer until I find the sound I'm looking for. Maybe before buying other headphones try a little EQ if you can. Because the Sundara already have some decent Bass, Punch and Slam that the other 2 might not in comparison. If you don't like using EQ... than the Ananda might be the one to try next. Because it's got the best sound signature right out of the box I've ever heard. If you choose Arya you will probably need to do a little EQ to get the sound you're looking for.

@Reeeepicheep

@@JTB-- I have the Lokius because I love EQ and it's great but I often find my peace program with Oratory EQ more than sufficient. So when I'm assessing between the Ananda and the Arya, it's not which headphone sounds better out of the box, it's which has the best performance potential for the music I like. I have the Bifrost 2, Lyr 3 multibit, modius, jotunheim 2, I worship schiit lol so all I need to do now is marry my setup with a flagship headphone. Since I can't afford a Meze Elite, I'm deciding between different Hifimans (Arya v2, arya stealth, ananda). Arya seems like the logical choice, but it's curious that many people like you and honest audiophile have preferred the Ananda.

This is crazy, you are so on point with every word! So descriptive and helpfull! Best hp review channel yet! Thanks! (And production quality… superb)

One of the best most descriptive reviews of these two headphones. Your explanation of the soundstage, depth etc was one of the best I have heard. I also own the ananda and your description was spot on. Unfortunate you mixed up on the names but still a really good review otherwise.

Hey Bruce Willis, did you try to take of your hat if Ananda fits better or still pressing the jaw?

I just discovered this channel. In my opinion, you are the one of if not the best reviewer on KZread.

Im looking to buy the Ananda now. This is the perfect review and reinforce my thoughts on a quality set of headphones. Your reaction to the Ananda is why I have had 1200 watt Stereos in my cars. Most people would not understand until its described like you did about the Ananda's. You feel like your apart of the music. not just a bystander.

Nice review! I bought the Sundaras about 3 months ago for fun pleasure listening on my ipad with the dragonfly cobalt dac, and I just recently purchased the Arya for home studio use. I haven’t received the Arayas yet but can’t wait to try them out.

Good review . I have the Anandas and can relate to the differences between the two. And I can relate to the comfort issue. It was sound versus comfort . I’m a comfort guy , but in this case sound won.

Wow, just discovered your youtube, after a week of purchase my Ananda (coming from HE400SE). I was thinking if I did the wrong choice on not getting the Sundara instead, but with your review I'm even happier with my purchase. BTW, the thing that I hate the most on my HE400SE is comfort, because I feel it's a bit small to my face and ears, and I feel the pressure on my head, also touching my ear lobes. In Ananda I feel a certain pressure in my jaws, but it's 200% more comfortable to me. Thanks for this great review, following you from now on!

I wish you reviewed more headphones. Your channel may focus on art and art education, but this review depicted how music sounded in both of these cans better than many I have seen from headphone reviewers, with those vids featuring master's degree-level dissertations of frequency curves, timbre, separation and imaging. The "whoa, oh shit" about "Mountain" and the "I couldn't give these up" segments are FAR more relatable to most consumers than examination of frequency curves. Well done.

@@Leantesta I did mention my other planars, but to answer as best I can: you can still find the EL-8 on the used market, sure. In some cases you can also find them factory sealed as NOS as I did in the summer of 2020 but while they are factory sealed Audeze won't honor a warranty period because the EL-8 has been discontinued for over 5 years. It was originally kind of intended as a mobile headphone, for what reason I can't fathom being that they are still large and open so they bleed. I wouldn't wear them outside unless just to sit and listen on my patio. It's a nice sounding headphone though if you like Audeze, and I do. But Audeze headphones benefit greatly from EQ so if you're not willing to do that I'd look elsewhere. Amazon has or had the EL-8 a while back from 3rd party sellers but those folks tend to ask unrealistic prices. And don't let them tell you they are under warranty because I got the info direct from Audeze.

there's no such thing. But if you want something that can recreate the things you enjoy most about orchestral music, you should be asking specifics like "bass rumble" or "presence" or, like in this video "visceral", etc. Not to mention your ideal sound profile, what do you enjoy the most? Detail? If so, then you need headphones with a SOLID but maybe not overbearing boost in the treble frequencies... Are treble frequencies too harsh for you (some people are sensitive)? Then you're looking for a "Dark" headphone, etc, you kinda need to learn the lingo, and, the best people to give you an educated recommendation are the Audiophiles, of which, i am not, just fyi. :P Every fan of orchestral music, enjoy different aspects of orchestral music... Enjoyment is subjective... So there are no objective "orchestral headphones", such a thing, does not exist. :)

Andrew is his name or 'Resolve' as he is known online. Joshua Valour is renowned for his love affair with the Hifiman Arya which is identical in shape to the Ananda so he really gets on with the comfort of that headphone. I have both and with the Ananda, what seems like the perfect shape for the headphone cup actually turns out to be a bit of a cryptic puzzle to balance comfort with sound staging and imaging. I wear glasses also which makes my endeavors even more frustrating. To cut a long story short, if you like all genres of music, you need both ( still cheaper than an Arya or HE6 se ) as Rock and metal and more dynamic upbeat music sound better on the Sundara's whereas Classical, Jazz and some EDM and chill music sound better on the Anandas. Value for money it's the Sundara's all the way. Nothing and I repeat Nothing comes close to them anywhere near their price whereas the Anandas have plenty of competition from the likes of Focal with the Elex and Beyerdynamic with the T1.

Though it is a VERY expensive headphone, but you get literalyl EVERY user-friendly feature with it, interchangeable parts in case something breaks, meaning those headphones are basically heirlooms, you can just order pieces to repalce whatever broke, they're also designed to be easy to dismantle and re-assemble, etc, you don't need to "send it in for repair" unless it's the planar magnetic driver itself that is broken. xD But if you just want to experience planar sound, getting something good, but, under a decent budget, Sundara's are THE go-to, best price-to-performance on the market.

@@azitaulava I listen to work or podcasts a lot at work so by the time I get home I'm headphoned out and just use my pc speakers. So in that sense I don't use them nearly as much as I should for what I spent. Not the headphones fault though, mine.

@@azitaulava After discovering the band The Amazing Devil I'm using them more. And yes I think it is worth it. I mostly used them for classical, cowboy bebop OSt, and once and a while other stuff I really like, discovering a new band that you fall in love with really makes you want to listen it in the best way you can I guess.

@@jwest88 thanks for the reply man I already bought it couple of weeks ago and compared to my dt880 you can hear the significant improvement, btw do you think replacing the stock cable to a balance will improved the overall sound?

I thought they were pans

human range may vary, the 20hz-20khz is just the AVERAGE range of human hearing. There's more nuance behind this topic, that i don't know, or understand, but this is what i DO know. :) Just checking a few bass range test videos, and apparently i'm sensitive to bass, i can hear all the way down to somewhere around 5-10hz.
