New Closed-Back Version of a Runaway Bestseller
HiFiMan's new closed-back version of its acclaimed SUNDARA over-ear headphone features Stealth Magnet technology and SUNDARA's proprietary Super Nano diaphragm that is less than one nanometer thick.
"From the moment we first introduced the original open-back SUNDARA a few years ago, it quickly became one of our most successful headphones since the inception of the company," says HiFiMan's Founder and CEO, Dr. Fang 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."
The new SUNDARA Closed-Back headphone is distinguished by elegant, hand-assembled beechwood ear cups that serve to isolate the listener from background noise and emphasize the natural bass response of the original recording. Designed by HiFiMan engineers, the ear cups offer the dual benefits of exceptional sonics and stylish good looks.
The new SUNDARA has a classic ergonomic headband for maximum comfort and fit and includes a detachable cable with dual 1/8" (3.5mm) plugs and 1/4" (6.35mm) adapter.
Stealth Magnet Technology
A recent HiFiMan creation, Stealth Magnet technology is an integral part of the headphone's sonic output by significantly reducing reflections and diffractions that are detrimental to sound quality.
Unlike the sound waves created by a conventional magnet, the special shape of Stealth Magnets enables the 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.
Ultra-Thin Super Nano Diaphragm
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 more common headphones. The design results in an ultra-wide frequency response – 6Hz-50kHz – with sonic detail that reveals the fine points in well-recorded music.
