HIFIMAN Arya Planar Magnetic Headphone - Stealth Magnet Version

Go stealth mode The HIFIMAN Arya is an open back planar magnetic headphone. ” Acoustically invisible stealth magnets While many open back headphones prevent sound waves from escaping with poorly designed drivers, the Arya utilizes a specially-shaped magnet which allows waves to pass through without generating interference.

The result is a massive reduction in wave diffraction turbulence and far less distortion. Nanometer diaphragm for perfect detail When it comes to detail retrieval, no factor is more important than the diaphragm.

Required to oscillate up to 20,000 times a second, most diaphragms, which are made of plastic or cardboard, can’t overcome the hurdle of their own inertia to reproduce lifelike detail. The Arya, on the other hand, features a diaphragm that’s only a nanometer thick.

This exceptional thinness allows it to reproduce unparalleled details and lifelike imaging that you won’t find on other headphones. Advance asymmetrical magnetic circuit Most planar magnetic headphones place a bulky layer of magnets between the diaphragm and the listener’s ear, forcing sound waves to squeeze past a barrier that results in transmission interference.

The Arya has solved this problem by utilizing smaller ear-facing magnets, which allow sound waves to pass around them without creating interference--for a purer, less distorted sound. Built for marathon listening sessions The ear cups of the Arya are asymmetrical, following the natural shape of the human ear for a natural fit you can enjoy for marathon listening sessions.

Protection meets purity The Arya features a “window shade” grill that both protects the driver with its sturdy metallic material and allows ample space for sound waves to escape, resulting in a highly durable and sonically-pure headphone. " -SoundNews
