Ananda vs Arya


Ananda thread

https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-104#post-15325985

I have no doubt that the Arya is the superior headphone but 


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-103#post-15323565

I think overall, I may actually enjoyed Arya the most of them all


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-102#post-15322566

I think the HEX V2 is just as detailed as the Ananda, but without the annoying treble peak. Both are slightly less detailed than the Arya, but far easier to drive.



https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-102#post-15322414

i myself may end up with the ananda in the near future unless the arya drop in price 200-300 less. then Arya for sure.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-102#post-15322331

IMO, the Arya is quite good. Well better than the Ananda in every way. 


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-102#post-15322309

Arya also has better depth to the stage and does contain space less or borders are less strict so stuff appears smoother into the light/screen.

Arya is more related to the Ananda imo.

Not worth 800 Dollars more though. Let's wait for trickle down.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-102#post-15322266

 I would say that the Arya has more detail than either the Ananda or the HEX. Without that extra detail there would really be no need for the Arya to exist.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-94#post-15192274

Quick impression is that Arya is gentler and more subtle than Ananda. Vocal is thrown at the back of the stage. I couldnt find anything I like from the 5 mins I had with it.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-93#post-15191258

the Arya does sound more enjoyable and the articulating earcups is a huge plus.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-71#post-14823858

Now, I am using it with my Wm1a using 3.5mm and I need to play in full volume. To me, Ananda is the most balanced sound compare to HE1000V2, Arya, HE-6SE and HE100SE.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-81#post-15012924

All in all zero regrets, Ananda is a beast. I also heard Arya and HE-6SE in the store and saw no reason to spend more on them. 


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-71#post-14824145

I know the HEK V2, Arya, and HEKSE all cost way more than the Ananda. But let’s put this in perspective. They’re ALL AUDIOPHILE headphones. The average person wouldn’t spend $300 on headphones, let alone $1000.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-70#post-14817223

The tonality, soundstage and timber from Ananda is good for me. Ananda sounds right when i listen to piano compare to Arya. Arya is too clean, clear and the treble is too high therefore the piano sound thin. I cannot take the treble from Arya.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-66#post-14771353

If that’s what you’re after, then you’d be much better off with the Arya. It’s simply better than the Ananda everywhere


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-62#post-14715848

I recently got a chance to hear the Arya. As a former owner of the HEX V2 and Ananda, the Arya is superior to both. 


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-ananda.879628/page-53#post-14623122

Overall the Arya sounded a bit warmer and the Ananda a bit more neutral to my ears but the difference is tiny between them.

The Arya didn't seem to have the 8k hz peak that the Ananda has.

The build quality of the Arya is better with aluminum(?) grills and a better headband that can swivel the cups.

The Arya needs a bit more power to drive them.

Arya thread

https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-93#post-15319184

I would also take Arya over Ananda in general, but Ananda is more meaty and bass-oriented, if that's your thing. But in terms of soundstage size, separation, clarity, detail, Arya is much better


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-93#post-15310651

From asking someone who owns the ananda and arya, he prefers arya in almost every way. Hex v2 have said to be a lesser version of arya as well. I believe they use the same magnet structure.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-91#post-15276099

 It still could be that someone prefers the Ananda because of personal taste reasons, but the

Arya is clearly the better Headphone


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-90#post-15275525

Ananda, just too shouty for me. Arya is just right.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-84

Sibilance, and the Anandas were also really bad

 I returned the Anandas because of this for the Aryas, which to me didn't have this issue at all. 


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-69#post-15003043

i tried the Ananda and it felt more closed in an less wider than the Arya.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-67#post-14985502

 I also can understand what you mean about that Peak with the Ananda I actually owned that headphone before deciding to go with the Arya instead. I actually really did enjoy the Ananda minus that Peak that we get a little too much with certain music and also the lack of adjustability or movability with the ear cups and or headband. Now when I received the hifiman Arya I was pleasantly surprised that it no longer had that fatiguing inconstant Peak with those genres, and as well for me the ability to adjust ear cups and band made these the most comfortable headphones I've owned.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-67#post-14984667

but then they seemed to slightly overdo it with an annoying treble peak on the Ananda. Hoping the Arya is somewhere in between tonally plus I know it has more resolution.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-54#post-14879769

Also, the Arya improves on things like more balanced treble without losing detail or resolution it is able to smooth the sound in the upper midrange to treble to where those that are sibilant sensitive will have much less of a problem with the Arya than they did with the Ananda.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-53#post-14865079

 For me personally the gap from the Ananda towards the Arya is huge: much more resolution, speed, separation, cleanliness. I also think that the Arya has more dynamics and less issues re. treble peak.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-53#post-14866218

HiFiMan Ananda: I listened to these over a month ago so going by memory. Amazing upper mids and highs, just like the Arya, but the bass was not nearly as good. The Arya handles everything better. It took some real convincing to tell my wife why I needed to spend $600 more on a pair of already pricey headphones but I'm glad I did. The Arya is better across the spectrum.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-53#post-14866681

Is the gap between Ananda and Arya wide ?

Yes :)

Will do a more detailed article in the future, need more time :)


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-51#post-14854252

I got to try the Jade 2, Arya, Susvara, 1000v2, 1000se, ananda, sundara....

i'll be honest I found the arya better than the 1000se. but! the Susvara sounded better and so did the Jade 2.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-48#post-14841049

The Ananda is bright, the Arya is not, as a matter of fact I find it a little too warm and laid back.



https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-39#post-14797094

That's pretty much what I found, that the Ananda had more bass and also more highs, but the Arya was more resolving.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-39#post-14800909

 Arya and HEK SE. I could hear that the Ananda had more punch up top and more impact in the bass. The Arya seems like a mid range monster with nice soundstage and great resolve, just in a relatively laid back manner.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-39#post-14801188

he Arya does have more detail and a little more clarity, not night and day but it is noticeable. The soundstage is also larger. The Arya is a bit of a conflict for me in that I do feel it is better in some ways but in others it is a let down.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-38#post-14795270

I like Arya because it is clean and clear and due to vocal seems recess so it sounds more layer. I like Ananda because i enjoy the sound which is like listening in concert and feel the sound is surrounding me. I know my testing is not fair to Arya and Abyss Diana as the power from wm1a is not enough to give them the potential. But tonality, Ananda is close to Abyss Diana which I use it as reference.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-37#post-14792264

 I'm not sure if that's an over all good or bad thing, but I suppose that makes it more neutral.Don't get me wrong, the base is still there, but it just has less oomf. The Sibilance issue that the Anadas have (guessing the 8k peak I've read about?) appears to be gone with these, which is definitely a good thing. Overall these sound really damn good with a really wide sound stage and very good clarity when focusing on specific pieces of the music. The only other difference I can speak to without talking out my ass since I can't do a proper back to back test is these seem to be more comfortable to wear, which I'm guessing is due to the fact the ear cups can rotate. If the exaggerated Sibilance of of the Anandas and other Hifiman (i.e. 400i, which was significantly worse than the Anandas by quite a bit) doesn't bother you, and you find them comfortable, I'm not sure these are worth the $500 extra to be honest (especially if you'd like a bit of extra base). Overall I'm pretty happy with them so far after just an hour of listening to them.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-30#post-14775364

Does the Arya have the same exaggerated sibilance that the Anandas have? Where when someone is speaking with harsh S sounds, it pierces the ears a bit?

https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-30#post-14775430

It has less of that than Ananda. The Ananda had it on everything I played through it


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-25#post-14753773

The Arya is better than the Ananda. It is more detailed and has better control of the upper mids and treble. The only advantage of the Ananda is that it’s easier to drive because of higher sensitivity.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-15#post-14677949

I asked Hifiman CS:

is the Arya a higher end model of the Ananda? Where does it fit in the product line?

Hifiman CS:

Yes. The Arya is a higher model than the Ananda or Ed Xv2, sonicaly its in between the HE1000 and the Ananda. It is also harder to drive like the HE1000 is rather than the easy Ananda.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-9#post-14648927

The midrange is smooth and neutral. I found the mids on the Ananda too forward. Instruments such as saxophones and female vocals were quite forward, and sounded great, due to an emphasis in the upper mids and lower treble, but that emphasis carried over to classic rock recordings, making them sound piercing - frankly, the Ananda just didn't work on classic rock for me. Those same instruments and vocals are more recessed on the Arya - more balanced. I imagine some might not like that.


https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hifiman-arya-impressions-thread.890421/page-7#post-14604281


https://majorhifi.com/hifiman-arya-review/

Midrange

it’s a pleasant evolution from the Ananda

 The result, then, sounds full and articulated, but not quite so sterile and un-engaging as the Ananda.
