Congrats!

Yeah, I came to very similar conclusions over long-term listening between these two as well. The HEK v2 is a wonderful all-rounder that is easier to listen to without fatigue - and this was even doing comparison listening across multiple combinations of source chains as well.

I was able to take advantage of a trade-in for my Ananda to upgrade to the HEK v2, and have no regrets. So I'm heavily considering doing a similar trade-in for the Arya SE to go up to something else, otherwise, they'll likely end up getting sold later this year.

Thank you! Love the headphone a lot :) definitely the HE1000 is a headphone made for listening pleasure, I been listening nonstop this weekend, which is in the end what this hobby is all about. Hope you can trade in the Arya SE for something you like better hopefully!
