Great review, nice to see high impedance headphones coming from China now, it's always been the domain of the Europeans like Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, AKG and Audio technica, makes it more worthwhile owning tube amps..this one's on my to get list.

I love that tune in the opening of your videos. Bass digs deep on that tune on my HE1000se.

came here from trying to find comparisons with the caspian. thanks!

Super work as always!!! Going to spend some time with this database. Your recommendations are very highly appreciated 👍👍👍

For me they are a little bit too bright, a little bit too less on bass. Great holo sound, separations and clarity. Overall very good, but I think I will be searching something else. Great comfort. Space is a little bit too small imo. Warmer dac/amps might works with them great.

Thanks for the introduction to Tash Sultana sounds lovely through my letshouer S12 iems👍

Hi, ver promising about soundstage but then i go off and headphonics guy does this! STAGING & DYNAMICS Since the time I started writing for Headfonics, I noticed a number of headphone makers that are veering away from the unrealistically airy and ultra-wide staging because the intensity and personal space headphones created are most enjoyable with a realistic and well-placed stage as in the SV023. The SIVGA SV023 does not have a large soundstage and to be sincere it remained within my head most times in listening sessions and rarely projected a forward image or even one far left or right.

The Sivga SV023 is now selling for $449 here in the US.

Philips Fidelio X3 has a similar graph. With non-perforated full-leather pads it could sound warmer - in case someone lucks warmth.

Very interessing phone !

Is that 4.5k spike from your measuring rig or actually present in any significant way in the headphone?

More wooden cups Lochlan? We really need to develope those wooden DACs

I owned these and could feel on my ears the hard plastic coverings over the drivers. Needless to say, it was a significant comfort issue... and ultimately, a deal-breaker for me.

Main difference between edition xs and sivga sv023 in sound quality? Thanks a lot.

I got a sigva 023 for 350 new. I cannot tell you where as a promise to the seller.

Thanks for this review! I was thinking on get this headphones and wondering, as you already reviewed the Xduoo MT-602, you think it will be enough to move this 300 ohms?? Thanks!

Tengo estos Sigva y estoy enviado con ellos. Donde esta su lista de recomendaciones ?? No me sale donde dice

Hi! For you, at the sound experience...Will you choose for music Ananda Nano or Sivga Sv023?

Hola !! Sería buena idea combinar ,Sigva 023,con Schiit Jotunheim 2,con Soncoz Sgd1 (o este es un poco viejo enero 2020) ??? 1000 gracias

Why comparaisons with obscure headphones ? Obviously everybody wants a comparaison with the hd650.

Between hip dac and ifi micro signature dsd will be improvements?

Which does technically perform better, Sivga SV023 or HiFiMan Edition XS?

Sivga SV023 or Hifiman Edition XS ?

Be coated..... does it compare at all to Verite open?

I didn't hear any mention of detail. Did I miss it?

Hi! That headphone needs burn-in?

So hard to find a good headphone without breaking the bank

300 ohms will give you usage limitations! There are many things that cannot handle a 300 ohm load. mp3 players. Cell phones. sound card on your computer. Preamplifiers that are IC based. 8 pin IC based preamplifiers can give better results than you think.

Anothe buttcase headphones NICE!

I didn't like it. Lack of sound stage. I would say it's intimate. Lacks punch in bass. Non-existent sub bass. Average detail in that range. No wow effect and fair comfort.
