Headfonia Best of Year - 2024 Awards - Pt. 1
BEST DAP Editor’s Choice:
Astell&Kern SP3000T
"The beauty of the Astell&Kern SP3000T is that it brings tubes and a Hybrid mode to the top level of AK, and that they have added a large possibility of finetuning by using EQ, DAC filters, Hybrid mode amplification settings and tube current mode settings.
This makes the SP3000T a TOTL portable player, offering Roon Ready, AK Connect, network play and streaming. It’s a true reference do-it-all DAP."

BEST Open Headphone - Dynamic Driver
Austrian Audio The Composer
"This time it is very simple, the Austrian Audio The Composer is an excellent all-round high-end headphone. It not only offers a nice design and great comfort, but its performance is up there with the very best, even if it isn’t perfect. It’s the kind if headphone that is easy to like and easy to listen to, even for non audiophiles."
BEST Headphone - No Limits
Hifiman Susvara Unveiled
"The new Hifiman Susvara Unveiled is a masterpiece building upon the legacy of the original Susvara. The Unveiled performs at a very high level where only a select few of the very best headphones on the market can compete with it."
BEST Portable Player - DAP
Hiby Music R8ii
"The HiBy R8 II sets a new standard for neutral-sounding DAPs, especially below the 2000$ range. Its super dark background, precise stereo imaging, and spacious soundstage create an immersive listening experience that remains faithful to the recording. With its honest and uncoloured reproduction, the R8 II invites you to rediscover your music with newfound clarity."
BEST DAC/Amp Combo
Ferrum ERCO 2
"I quite liked the original ERCO when I reviewed it, but to be honest I hardly ever used it after the article was published. With the ERCO 2 this isn’t the case and I have been using it daily as a DAC/AMP, even with very high-end headphones.
The updates done by Ferrum are really worth it and they make the ERCO 2 a more exciting, emotionally engaging, and musical unit which I absolutely recommend. The vocal presentation of the ERCO 2 is one of the very best."

BEST Amplifier - Tubes
Auris Audio Headonia
"While the new Headonia 300B doesn’t sound like the original, its performance again is exceptional. I remember calling the original Headonia “Extraterrestrial” and the new one isn’t inferior in any way.
Au contraire, it impresses me even more and I can now finally remove the original Headonia from my Recommended Buy amplification list and replace it with this new version. The Auris Audio Headonia 300b is a very high-end amplifier with a corresponding price tag, but it really is a statement product, with a matching performance. It is an amplifier for the lucky few, but it is incredibly good."
BEST DAP
Hiby Music R4
"I should congratulate Hiby for offering a complete DAP with many features at a minuscule price. 249$ is cheaper than some USB dongles today, and at that price, you get good output power, full Android support, bit-perfect playback with streaming, the Hiby Music app, and a premium, futuristic design. You can’t ask for more than that. "
BEST DAC/Amp - High-End
Dethonray Listening M1
"The Dethonray Listening M1 is a remarkable addition to the audiophile landscape, showcasing Anson’s commitment to innovation and excellence. With its versatility, robustness, and high-performance capabilities, the M1 delivers exceptional sound characterized by its natural, immersive, and technically proficient qualities.
Its compact design further enhances its appeal. If you’re not willing to spend $3-5K on a desktop rig containing a full-size amp, you can save a lot of space."

BEST Amplifier - Portable
Brise Audio Tsuranagi V2
"The Brise Audio Tsuranagi V2 portable amplifier is a high-end, refined entry into the portable audio market. Developed by Brise Audio, a brand already well-known for its top-quality cables, the Tsuranagi V2 exemplifies its commitment to sonic excellence. Originally created as a testbed for its cables, the Tsuranagi has evolved into a standalone masterpiece."
BEST IEM - Midrange
Lime Ears Terra
"To me, Emil’s new Lime Ears Terra is a very successful creation. Its coherent and natural tuning is refined and refined. The IEM impresses from start to finish with its package, design, build quality, fit, and sound performance. In the upper-mid-range IEM market, the Terra is a serious option, especially for those who look for great coherency and mid-range timbre."
