Raal Immanis top of the line headphones


Not sure how many here are using really high end headphone systems. But has anyone tried, or is planning to try, the new Raal Immanis? I am a huge fan of their CA-1a headphones and find them to be an amazing value for the price compared to things like the top Hifiman headphones which don't do much for me. 

That said the Immanis is almost $10K which feels pretty crazy for a headphone. I love headphones because they take away the room acoustics with all the flaws involved, but also because they allow people to get a killer full range system for a much lower price than going with speakers. But when a headphone costs $10K that benefit is no longer in play. I certainly can afford an Immanis but not sure it makes sense to do so. Just curious if anyone else has tried them or has any thoughts.

Everyone lives life as they want and can afford to but what is the real difference between the very top and the lesser one. The goal is listening to music.. I am sure you can hear what the 2nd violins are doing on either of them.. I use  Grado because to me they sound like what music sounds like…I am a pro musian
