While I had almost reviewed 50+ international brands in smart electronics to precision-audio devices, I should begin with giving credits to retailers who indirectly bridge the gap between the brands and customers. The Audio Store, is perhaps the most warm welcoming e-commerce platform in India currently respecting their customers on an another level. They fulfil your enthusiasm by delivering your desired product in 1 single day, blazing fast ain't it? Well, they are also trusted in the way they ship your packaging. So, I humbly convey to all my fellow audiophiles to encourage "The Audio Store".

Here is my short review after 72 hours of burning-in:
Great response in the mids and highs. Better bass response compared to Sennheiser in this price range and just as articulate with better sound stage. You don't get that heavy bass response, but it is clean and has just enough punch to enjoy it. The ear-pads are a bit small to my ears(our team had this issue too), but I don't recommend changing only if it maintains the clarity. Comfortable headphones for extended listening and have not experienced ear fatigue. **You should pair this with a warm-sound signature DAC and headphone amplifier**; otherwise there will be needles running into your ear. Upon all you will be experiencing an amazing clear and open sound-signature that gives a feel as that you are in a "state of the art" recording studio!

I should address the cable situation. They are not good in any way, but acceptable to a certain level. At certain angles they loose audio signal. **So I highly highly recommend the custom cable from "The Audio Store" since they were hand-crafted to perfection using Rhodium plated connectors**.

Last thing I would like to say is that - "You will not regret with this purchase".

First of all, the customer support is top notch. Available 24/7, friendly, frequent update on order/shipping status, and what not. Sundara was very well packed by theaudiostore.in - if you don't believe it took 10min for me to take off the sundara from the retail box.

And, i appreciate and thanks theaudiostore(TAS) for delivering the product before estimate data. I recommend to purchase on monday or tuesday, as logistic partner doesn't work on weekends and your parcel will be kept with logistic on weekends. I know how hard it is to wait for product once the order is placed.

I won't talk much about the sound, as there are plenty of review online. However, sundara is drivable and gets very loud by Dell Latitude 3400 Laptop. I don't have dedicated amp/dac as of now. And, without amp/dac i really can't say its a steal deal. But, for me it is a good deal, as the sundara sound signature is very close to my liking 👌. well controlled and extended bass... no over-powering mid-range and sparkly treble 💕

First I'd like to talk abuot the transaction. TheAudioStore is a new site, but I'm happy with my purchase from them. The transaction and delivery were super smooth. Great experience.

Second, about the Hifiman Sundara. The sound is pristine. Buy it for clarity, texture and soundstage. It's not for bass heads. The bass that is there is tight and fast, I love it. I definitely felt that it needs 20-30 hours of "burn-in" to sound it's best. You'll need an amp to drive it to it's full potential.
