How would you compare the Dave/WA33/Susvara to your Bartok/Bakoon/Susvara?
Does anyone have experience with the Susvara and the Stellaris together?
Stellaris, no, but the Stratus is underwhelming with the Susvara.
Gets loud enough, not a terrible listen.

Just got a chance to do some measurements on the Susvara. I still have lots more to do so this is just the preliminary result:
This is my favorite headphone for a reason. Not only does it have top tier detail and microdynamic ability, but itās also got solid macro contrast, along with being reasonably spacious. All of this is underscored by the fact that itās super comfy to wear! Something that can only be said about one other planar in this tier - the Abyss Diana Phi with DMS pad mods. The tradeoff there is that the Diana Phi could use some tuning adjustment around 10khz (and maybe a few other places), and the Susvara absolutely nails it.
So farā¦ this is the best sounding headphone Iāve heard. I think you could find other headphones that do one thing or another better - like HD800s is more spacious, and HE-6 slams harderā¦ but this is the complete package in my opinion, where the rest have a compromise in one area or another. Of course it costs a crazy amountā¦ so they probably know that.

Magni 3 heresy. All amps sound the same, and speaker amps make no difference 
EDIT: this was a jokeā¦

Haha well isnāt that some schiitā¦
May have to sell what I have and rethink this whole process.
Iām jokingā¦ mostly haha. I just swapped to the Feliks Euforia. Iāll have to spend more time with it on different sources. Hoping to try out that Bakoon.

Haha Yeah I figured.
Euphoria and Bakoon seem sweet.
Iād look at the Susvara but I donāt want to run into a situation and not be able to drive them properly. May be able to do it out of the back of the tt2. Itāll be a bit before I take that step, if I even do.
High current amps seem like a good idea for this type of planar.

I would imagine. Seems like it needs a nuclear power plantā¦

all amps definitely do not sound the same, you undermine your argument and points when you say thatā¦the bakoon is a terrific choice IMHO
I was jokingā¦ I probably shouldāve put that disclaimer in the post.

I apologize then, sadly I have spoken to people in various places who will actually argue that DACās and amps all sound the sameā¦

No need to apologize! Helen Keller would most likely agree

We had one of those folks visit here a few months ago. He may have been joking about that event.
