More HPs from AXPONA 2018 & Comply Foam premium ear phone tips

FYI, I tried the Susvara ($6000) flagship planar magnetic HP from HifiMan. In a back and forth listening session with the HiFiMan HE1000's V2 ($3,000). To tell the truth I couldn't hear much of a difference. Both are still better than HifiMan's electrostatic model which is too bright in high frequencies.

I also listened to a lot of a other headphones in the EarGear Expo, nothing exceptional except in general.
Excluding Mr. Speakers Voce, electrostatic which is the best HP I have ever heard bar none.

Opps, almost forgot to mention I picked up a sample from the nice people at Comply Foam. Premium Ear Phone Tips, these are made from memory foam. They are much more comfortable than my stock Shures, but have not tried silicone tips yet.
 
I’ve never owned an in-ear headphone that I didn’t end up putting Comply tips on.
 
I've tried several different Comply sleeves, and none of them were comfortable for me. I use the large Shure expanding foam sleeves, and Comply doesn't make one as large as those, so, there's that.

Well ... You know what they say about guys with big ear holes.
