Iphone -> Audioquest Dragonfly Red -> Hifiman Ananda

Thanks I’ve been leaning towards the Ananda Stealth.

For anyone interested in the Ananda, Keep your eyes open for bargains. The HiFiMan stuff goes on sale regularly. I bought a pair of Anandas a few years ago for about 60% off retail, direct from them. They do sound great but seem a little shy on bass. They are competing with my Sennheiser 6XX phones. Hard to decide which is better. That said. I use my Sennheiser Momentum 4's most of the time when I'm walking. the bass on the Momentums blows the other 2 away. Even when I EQ the 4's and raise the bass, it still hits really hard.

The bass was my concern. The Edition XS have great bass but the headband is a joke. I hear what you’re saying with the Momentum’s, I have a pair of 3’s and the bass is insane. A bit much for me at times but really fun for certain genres.

@chrshanl37 I’ve had the Arya Stealths for over three years and really like them. Very neutral and natural with nice out-of-the-head soundstaging. The bass isn’t overly hard hitting (I hear the newer Organic is better with that) but it’s definitely there and it’s quick with good tone and texture and the overall sound is very balanced. And they’re as comfortable as all get out — I can wear them for hours with no fatigue or discomfort and they’re nice and light. I’m a little miffed I paid $1200 3.5 years ago and now they’re half that, but my loss could be your gain I guess. I have no idea how they compare to the Anandas.  If you haven’t already check the reviews at stereonews.net as he’s done good reviews on many Hifiman headphones. 

@soix  thank you for your response that is very helpful. The bass you described in the Arya is what I’m looking for. That helps me with my decision and as you say the prices have come down dramatically so the cost to step up to the Arya is negligible. 
I will be driving them with a Leben cs 300 XS.
