July 28, 2022

THE NEW MODEL SUNDARA ADDS STEALTH MAGNET TECHNOLOGY AND BEECHWOOD EAR CUPS

HIFIMAN has announced a new version of the HIFIMAN Sundara over-ear headphone, featuring Stealth Magnet technology and the model’s original proprietary Super Nano diaphragm that is less than one nanometer thick.

BEECHWOOD EARCUPS

Scheduled to ship in August, the HIFIMAN Sundara Closed-Back headphone is highlighted by hand-assembled beechwood ear cups that are designed to isolate the listener from background noise and emphasize natural bass response.

STEALTH MAGNET TECHNOLOGY

A recent HIFIMAN creation, Stealth Magnet technology is an integral part of the headphone’s sonic output and is designed to reduce reflections and diffractions that are detrimental to sound quality

Like the open-back version, the new Sundara Closed-Back features the company’s ultra-thin Super Nano diaphragm, which is up to 80% thinner than diaphragms in many other headphones. The design results in an wide frequency response of 6Hz-50kHz.

Adds Dr. Bian: “Sundara is a Sanskrit term meaning ‘beautiful’ and ‘noble,’ both of which are accurate descriptions of the new headphone design, inside and out. Music lovers will enjoy the new Sundara Closed-Back as much if not more than the original open-back model.”
