DESCRIPTION

Meet the all-new Edition XS planar magnetic headphones from Hifiman. Coming as a successor to the award-winning Hifiman Edition X, the latest Edition XS features all-new Neo Super-Nano Diaphragm and Stealth magnet technology. Hifiman Edition XS has been tuned by professionals to deliver a natural and vivid sound reproduction. Edition XS presents you with a surround sound feeling. It leaves you in awe with deep-hitting bass response, lush vocals, energetic treble and a wide 3D soundstage. Enjoy your favourite music with the outstanding Hifiman Edition XS.

Hifiman has mastery in designing and developing full-sized planar magnetic headphones. The latest Edition XS uses a newly developed planar magnetic driver with an ultra-thin diaphragm coil known as Neo super-nano diaphragm. This driver has an impressively fast response resulting in a highly-detailed sound with lower distortion. This new driver works in conjunction with invisible Stealth Magnets, which enables the sound waves to pass through the magnets without generating interference. Hifiman’s advanced magnet design is acoustically transparent, dramatically reducing wave diffraction turbulence that degrades the integrity of the sound waves. The reduced distortion yields pure sonic output that is accurate and full-range.

Hifiman developed the stealth magnet design for their flagship Susvara and has featured the same technology with the latest Edition XS. For this, Hifiman has optimised the air turbulence and reflection of the sound waves inside the driver cavity. This design makes the magnet invisible in front of the sound waves and results in refined audio performance. Aside from improved acoustic performance, the Edition XS has a low impedance of 18Ω, which allows it to be easily driven. The new acoustic architecture also offers a frequency response from 8Hz-50kHz, allowing you to enjoy your music in full fidelity.

Hifiman has designed a new headband for the Edition XS. This headband is familiar to their recently launched HE400i headphones and offers better comfort and durability. The new headband is lightweight, ergonomically structured to offer maximum comfort for hours of listening pleasure. The exterior is refined matte black material, and the interior features high-grade memory foam for the most comfortable fit and elasticity. The headphone’s structural design supports overall durability that retains its comfortable fit for years of enjoyment. The Edition XS also features new 3.5mm sockets for connectivity which are similar to those found on most common audio devices. The included 3.5mm cable is user changeable and replaceable.

FAQs

: All HiFiMAN products come with 1 year of warranty. To claim warranty read more on HiFiMAN warranty . We are very helpful guys, just saying.
: The HiFiMAN Edition XS is loaded with Planar magnetic drivers that delivers an excellent audiophile sound.
: Yes, the cables are indeed detachable. Making for easy storage and convenient for whenever you want to replace or upgrade cables.
: The HiFiMAN Edition XS is made of lightweight that allows you to use them for long hours without experiencing fatigue. The soft leather headband and over-ear design with memory foam earpads also helps in the same.
: No, the HiFiMAN Edition XS does not come with a microphone.
: Impedance is the so-called alternating-current resistance that headphones have under specific standard conditions. On devices with low output impedance, headphones are the louder, the lower their impedance is. In principle, we recommend that you choose headphones with low impedance for use on devices that are operated by battery/rechargeable battery (i.e. most portable devices such as smartphones, tablet computers but also notebooks). You can distinguish between high and low impedance. Usually, the gradations 18 Ω, 32 Ω, and 80 Ω are used in the low range. In the high range, 250 Ω are common. If you want to get the most out of your system (and it has the power to do so), choose a model with 600 Ω.

about HiFiMAN's warranty in India.

'It is pretty light on the head and very comfy. They completely swallow your ears, which also means a good seal, but not too much pressure on the temples.'

'I find them quite balanced. Passive damping is very good - can hear everything outside when not playing, which adds to a natural, speaker-like presentation to the sound.'

'HiFiMan’s Stealth Magnet technology is acoustically transparent, dramatically reducing wave diffraction turbulence that degrades the integrity of the sound waves, maximizing the accuracy.'

'The Edition XS features improvements in ergonomic design, including a new lightweight headband that features high-grade memory foam for a comfortable fit and lasting elasticity.'
