#35 Dan Clark Audio Stealth: $4,499.00 Audio46 eBay
Pros: A preference score of 86 in oratory1990’s measurement, with bass and sub-bass slightly above target (about 1.3 dB from 20 to 60 Hz), so kick drums and bass lines land with full weight down to 20 Hz. Everything from 200 Hz to 6 kHz stays within about 0.6 dB of target, which keeps vocals clear and even. The closed back isolates the listener and keeps sound from leaking, and it rates above the open Dan Clark Audio EXPANSE.
Cons: A deep 10.2 dB dip near 9.7 kHz dulls cymbal shimmer and the sparkle of strings. Sensitivity of 86 to 87 dB/mW is low for an over-ear, so it needs a capable headphone amp rather than a phone. At 415 g it is a heavy headphone.
