I have owned the Susvara. I thought it was pretty good…but I sold it in favour of my HD600, HE500 and Sundara. I strongly prefer the three.actually, I have zero problem with amir or anyones opinion ..all good..my problem is people here who never listen to the susvara or other HP's suggesting it doesnt sound good based on a graph or measurements...just say it is all subjective or that others might like different measurements and its all good..if one prefers the harman curve just say simply I prefer the harman curve and this HP doesnt adhere to it ..thats fine, just do not represent the curve or measurements as objective truth and again if you havent listened to a HP you cannot say it is good or no good
I am not really a fan of the Harman Target..but I don’t have to be in order to use it as a framework to grok headphones from afar. This is what makes ASR great; via objective measurements you can interject your own tastebuds and see if X headphone looks like something for you.
The other way around is basically to rely on subjective reviews and magic. When we fail to understand the world around us we grasp at magic…and magic is very expensive in this hobby…and tends to disappear if biases can be held in check.
Then again the magic does exist: it just lives within the music.
