HiFiMan Ananda

HiFiMAN Ananda Planar Magnetic Reference Headphones The HiFiMAN Ananda is an open-backed headphone with a specially designed planar magnetic driver. The headphones' relatively high sensitivity is higher than is typical in a Planar Magnetic headphone and allows it to be driven with some each by conventional headphone amplifiers and even many mobile... morephones. The Ananda also offers an impressive frequency response range, from 8-55KHz and with all the dynamic realism that HiFiMAN headphones are renowned for. Compared with previous HiFiMAN headphones, the Ananda features a new headband that borrows from their two previous designs. All of the comfort and even weight distribution of the latter style but the more conventional appearance of the early design., This means you can enjoy your audio in all possible comfort and with their angled pads, you can listen all day long. Sonically the Ananda shares the same HiFiMAN level of resolution and even-handed sonic performance across the acoustic spectrum that you have come to expect. Smooth and highly extended at both ends with their large driver lows can reach deep into the depths for full and robust bass response, while it retains highly expressive mids and delicately airy treble. The premium earpads also have been specially designed to be thicker with an asymmetrical shape that follows the form of the earcups. The pads are bevelled so that they contour to the shape of your head for superb comfort and extended listening. The Ananda is meant to be used by a wide range of sources, from the upper-end quality of a large desktop amplifier and yet it can also be run superbly from portable devices, control and finesse all sewn up into a sumptuous headphone with stunning audio quality. Outstanding Sound Quality Compared to traditional dynamic headphones, the planar magnetic technology offers largely superior sounding experiences in terms of quality and soundstage. Dynamic headphones utilize conductors that vibrate in select areas of the diaphragm. This results in a large percentage of the diaphragm that cannot be directly driven by those conductors. Planar magnetic headphones are fundamentally different and operate on a different technical Principe. Firstly, the weight of the planar headphones (conductors + diaphragm) is much lower than the dynamic ones. This results in planar headphones' superior performance in treble.. Planar headphones have conductive layers distribute throughout the surface of the diaphragm. The diaphragm is evenly driven by the magnetic force so that planar headphones have significantly lower distortion when compared with conventional dynamic headphones. The lower distortions result in better overall reproduction of minute details. Instrumental positioning and imaging are improved, and the headphone has very natural sound staging capabilities. For a rapid response, eerie detail and incredibly low distortion, the Ananda has a very thin diaphragm. The Window Shade grill drastically reduces sonic

The Ananda Nano provides a massive sonic upgrade. The Nanometer Thickness Diaphragm at its core is based on the famous Susvara design - resulting in much lower distortion, higher transient response, and double improvement of dynamics and details. Planar Sounds Better Since the conductor layer (voice coil) on the diaphragm of the planar headphone is... moreevenly distributed on the surface of the diaphragm, the electromagnetic force that drives the diaphragm to vibrate and produce sound acts much more uniformly than the voice cool acts on the surface of the cone-type diaphragm of the dynamic headphone. Ultimately, the phase distortion is much lower, the spatial information of the sound reproduction suffers less loss than dynamic headphones, while providing a much larger sound stage and better positioning. The result? Ananda Nano has a wide frequency range - 5Hz to 55kHz. The three-dimensional sound field wraps around the listener’s ears, with the positioning and imaging of musical instruments are as precise as if experienced in a live performance. Acoustically Invisible Stealth Magnet Unlike the sound waves created by a conventional magnet, the special shape of Stealth Magnets enables the waves to pass through the magnets without generation 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. Portable Device, Ready to Drive High sensitivity that allows use with virtually any smartphone or portable audio device. Low distortion and amazing sound quality.
