The ARYA Stealth is a serious step up in sound quality for the price. The improved bass response and wide soundstage are genuinely impressive, and the lower impedance opens up more pairing options. These are fantastic for someone already invested in a decent source and looking for a detailed, immersive listening experience without the need for a dedicated headphone amp.
