One of the reasons was the comfort level. Sundara can be uncomfortable for larger ears (like mine). The details across the entire spectrum of sound was much better too. For its price, Sundara is very good though. I recently added Focal Clear to my collection which is absolutely stellar, but the msrp price tag is 1400 usd, so it’s to be expected.

The fact that the Clear can be had for less than $1k these days makes it an amazing deal.

I returned the Sundara for the same reason. It wasn't very comfortable and I was always aware of them on my head. I have the same problem with Beyerdynamic headphones. I thought it might be the rounded ear cups, but I didn't have a problem with the Fostex headphones I tried.
