Planar headphones


Hi, I don’t have room for two sets of speakers nor I want the hassle of swapping speakers to enjoy/experience the sound of planar speakers.

I was wondering if a pair of planar headphones comes close to the sound signature of a planar speakers, I’m looking at a pair of headphones in the $1000 range.

ps. I’m very happy with the SF Guarneri Evo speakers currently have.

If you are really lucky you can score a pair of Raal SR-1a's and a Schiit Jotunheim R Amp for $795 to $1300, according to another site that lists asking prices for gear across a number of sites.:).  There is now a SR-1b model.  Full range ribbon headphones.

List is ~4k.  Many, many positive reviews.  The first time I listened to mine, I though I had not turned off my ML CLX's and ARC system and the phones weren't on.  Wrong, I was listening to something that is the equal of my system that fits on one's head, and doesn't touch your ears, so the soundstage is in front of you. 

Earspeakers.  They are incredible.
