About this deal

The Arya Organic is a strong contender for the "Product Of The Year" award as of now, and it is going to be hugely successful, I'm sure about that. All products sold on Headphone Zone carry a GST compliant invoice and all products sold include an 18% GST. By no means does this apply a painful amount of pressure, but it can apply enough to make it noticeable and a bit distracting. These innovations have resulted in headphones that offer exceptional detail retrieval, speed, and clarity.

Personally, I think that aria organic likes current very much and scales great with better sources such as xduoo xd05 plus or hifiman ef600 on the R2r system. The Arya Stealth weighs just over 400g, but as the pressure is perfectly spread, it together with the soft perfectly sealing earpads (pleather + polyester, not velour) and asymmetrical ear cup shape, makes using this headphone a pure joy. The star of the show when it comes to the HIFIMAN Arya lineup is usually the midrange and the large panorama they can paint for the listener but the Arya Organic takes a different approach in this region. Maybe I have a very strange taste but to this date, I thought the every single of them were really bad.Open-back headphones create a feeling of space, presenting audio as if you are sitting at a live concert. It enables precise management of the air movement, preventing unwanted reflections and resonances that can degrade the overall sound quality. Now, whilst you definitely won’t need anything else to get going, I think it would have been nice if HiFiMan included a balanced cable with the Arya, or a longer version of the ¼” cable as for users not listening at their desk, the included might be a bit short.

There’s a tame characteristic in the midrange region that other Arya cans didn’t display which can be described as a removal of roughness particularly in the midbands but there’s also an increase in low-end slam that produces a punchier character over other past Arya headphones. The headband assembly sits comfortably on the head plus the clamping force is just right on the Arya Organic in my opinion. Also, real wood increases weight, and this would have been everything that HiFiMAN doesn't stand for.Build quality is good, even though the veneer is placed on ear cups that are made of plastic the headphone feels really solid and well-made. The steel part is the headband arch and wide gimbal with the rest is a lightweight high-grade plastic construction.

Additionally, the clamping force is just perfect, not too strong so I can keep the headphone for hours on my head without feeling any discomfort, but also not too firm so I can move my head and I don’t feel the headphone will fall during faster movement. If you're looking for a planar headphone that's lighter on the head (and wallet) than many other planar in its class and still sounds good, then consider the Arya Stealth Magnets.

To the best of my knowledge, this marks the very first comprehensive written review of the Arya Organic available. They offer an improved and refined sound profile overall and improved looks but cost less than its predecessor. Despite being a little bit on the brighter side, they were remarkably natural-sounding, balanced, and smooth–thankfully, the same can be said for the Arya. The third Arya variant was the Stealth Magnet Edition which incorporated HIFIMAN’s Stealth Magnet technology.
