Audio46's Opinion
The SV023 headphones from Sivga offer a uniquely warm and inviting sound character that sets them apart from other headphones at this price point. In fact, the SV023 seems to overdeliver for the price. Most impressive, is the SV023's surprisingly tight and immersive soundstage, which reaches a level of skill that you rarely hear in a headphone under 500 bucks. The low end is tastefully subdued, while the low mids shine with rich harmonic clarity, making pianos and guitars sound exceptionally pleasing. The dark timbre, combined with well-preserved highs, ensures a balanced and enjoyable listening experience. These headphones not only sound great but also boast a stylish walnut construction and come with an extravagant leather carrying case, adding a touch of luxury to your music enjoyment. If you're an audiophile looking to enhance your collection with a delicious and easy sound signature, the SV023 may be your answer.

Nice sound
Nice under the radar purchase. Does not get the publicity other earphones get but deserves attention.
Sivga SV023 Impressions
This is my review I created on forum.hifiguides.com: https://forum.hifiguides.com/t/sivga-sv023-open-back-to-be-released/34295/25 Comfort The SV023 a very comfortable headphone. It uses a headband strap so not to create any hotspots. Pads are a fast memory foam. Your ears might git a little toasty, but I don’t have any issues with it. I can easily wear this headphone all day. Sound If you like wide, spacious and airy sound, then I recommend trying these out. Their imaging is pin-point accurate and really good at this price. Instrument separation is just as great due to how wide and spaciousness of the headphone. Low-end The bass is tight and controlling. It is impactful and decent amount of texture. The Sivga SV023 does favor quality over quantity. That isn’t say the quantity is bad, It can deliver it and even give a bit of that rattle/shack, but don’t expect it to be something like an EMU Teak either. Mids Vocals will sound outside of your head, a little out in front of you. Pianos and guitars have good timbre to them. Kick drum hits and other percussion instruments sound like they should and resonate well. There is a decent amount of decay within the sound. Highs There is a bit of bite to the treble. It does have some peaks to it. I don’t hear anything like an 8k peak like the one in DT 1990 Pro for example. It has a bit of sparkle and airiness. However I would say for treble sensitive folks that might prefer the thicker darker sound like in the Sennheiser line, then this might not be the headphone for you. 660s Comparison The 660s will have a smaller sound stage. It will have a thicker more laid-back sound. Vocals will be more intimate and in your head. The bass is less textured and will sound boomy in comparison. Does not have the same large sound-stage, width and depth in comparison. The SV023 wins on this by a long shot. It will not have the same airiness characteristic to the sound.
