The HifiMan Arya Stealth offers a high-quality audio experience with superior sound quality, soundstage, and comfort suitable for extensive listening sessions at home or in quiet environments. These headphones are better for critical listening and will appeal to audiophiles or those who prioritize audio fidelity above all else. They are wired, over-ear headphones with an open-back design, meaning they don’t isolate noise well and are not portable. On the other hand, the Raycon The Everyday Earbuds are more affordable, provide good sound quality for their price, are wireless with a closed-back design offering better portability and noise isolation. These earbuds are convenient for everyday casual listening, exercise, or travel. If you are looking for versatile, everyday earbuds at a lower cost, Raycon could be preferable, but if you want top-tier sound for dedicated listening sessions and your budget allows, the HifiMan Arya Stealth could be the right choice despite not being suitable for portable or noisy environments.

"The Arya can easily be end-game headphones for 99% of consumers, satisfying most audio desires. Priced well above USD$1000, the Arya are obviously and gloriously not for the mass market consumer; they are designed and built by enthusiasts for enthusiasts – especially those who view their expenses on this level of gear as investments."

"Sure, every influencer owns these buds. They’re still pretty good. In this price range, getting anything that seals well in your ears for good soundstage, doesn’t sound like trash, and won’t immediately break is a huge win. The Everyday Buds tick all of those boxes for me, and I intend to use them at least nearly every day; I go to the gym on alternating evenings. Damn it, YouTube. You've cost me good money again."
