Amazon's ratings of course are not valid for empiricism. They mean nothing.

No, empiricism means when only 1 out of 5 says Clear is better than HD6xx but 4 of 5 say HD6xx is way better, then Clear is overrated.
A lot of reviews are fake.Amazon's ratings of course are not valid for empiricism. They mean nothing.
Well, I mean all humans have two ears to listen to and their perceptions are always handled by the same routines, the morphology of their ears will differ but this is part of the equation. At the end in average, all participants are equal.Anything which can not be repeated in control environment with exactly the same outcome (experimental) is not empirical!
The only conclusions one can draw is the HD6XX is better value for money or most people are not prepared to pay Focal money or that most folks are able to audition a HD650 before buying the HD6XX but have no access to the Clear (not that many dealers that demo around).
LDAC @ 990 KB/s has SINAD of 98 DB which is more than a CD & perfectly enough. You do still need LG or Sony handsets to use it like that. TWS aren't there, headaphones are not there when it comes to sound quality but you can make a EMI + BT neckband combo or BT receiver + earphones/headphones & get there. Example FiiO FH1s EMI's + FiiO's LC-BT2 or Shanling UP4 BT receiver.
They all have it from Android 8 (Oreo) but bad implemented (code/antennas) so it drops out or have short range when in 990 KB/s mode.I think LDAC is now on phones beyond LG and Sony. I can vouch for Samsung and Huawei having LDAC.

I had KGSSHV Carbon and Stax 323s side by side for a while with 009. I also couldn't hear much difference...It was depressing.it's expensive that VOCE, in the realm of SR009 which is impressive and has high and long resale value.
BTW I drive the SR007 with some SRM-727A with Spitzer mod.
I once compared the stock SRM-727A, the SRM-007TII, with the uber-expensive SRM T8000 in a Yodobashi. My conclusions were SRM-007TII a bit better than the SRM-727A, and the T8000 almost the same as the 007TII. Am I deaf?.
I was shocked. Given the difference of price, I was expecting something like putting the SR009 after the SR007, one wants to run and rob a bank. Now I really doubt these highly promoted and expensive amps on the web, like the blue huawai, KGSS, etc, really make anything more that a small difference.
I would love amir tested some electrostatics amps.

thats an unpopular opinion indeed. just to be sure, check if you have a good seal and got the appropriate music to test the technicalities: https://forum.headphones.com/t/songs-to-test-headphones-with/348/174?u=resolve Also what dac and amp are you using?Recently bought Ananda. Seems a bit overrated to me. I need time to adjust to it's sound but so far i feel like their technicality not that good. Not sure yet.
My dac/amp is SBX AE5: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...and-measurements-of-sound-blasterx-ae-5.9114/thats an unpopular opinion indeed. just to be sure, check if you have a good seal and got the appropriate music to test the technicalities: https://forum.headphones.com/t/songs-to-test-headphones-with/348/174?u=resolve Also what dac and amp are you using?
