• SUSVARA - magnetostatic high-end headphones - Hifiman

With its HE1000 V2 model, HIFIMAN already has an outstanding magnetostat on the market, which is regarded worldwide as possibly the best headphones ever. But Dr. Fang Bian is now going one step further and launching a new premium headphone model, the Susvara. The Susvara is based on the HE1000 V2, but with three major changes.

HIFIMAN has produced special magnets for the Susvara, which are rounded on the side facing away from the diaphragm and are known as "stealth magnets". This design ensures less interference during music reproduction, similar to the stealth technology used in modern fighter planes.
Compared to the HE1000 V2, the protective grille on the outside of the headphones is more delicate and has a larger diameter. This results in fewer reflections on the "window shade grille" and thus enables unclouded music enjoyment.

The cone of the Susvara is larger than that of the HE1000 V2 and is made of gold instead of aluminum conductor tracks. This makes the cone even lighter and allows it to reproduce even the finest micro-details without distortion. However, the efficiency is lower than that of the HE1000 V2, so the Susvara requires powerful headphone amplifiers or high-quality hi-fi amplifiers that can operate stably with a 60 ohm load in order to be adequately driven.

With the Susvara, HIFIMAN once again sets new standards in the headphone industry and offers audiophiles a new way to experience their music in unprecedented sound quality.
