Audio46's Opinion
The Edition XS Stealth by HiFiMAN showcases a highly polished soundstage with intricate, if not downright captivating imaging. The implementation of stealth magnets brings a more authentic and lifelike sound while still delivering the refined sonic style that the brand is known for. The bass is velvety and articulate with outstanding clarity, providing a controlled and well-balanced response without overpowering the rest of the frequencies. The midrange offers precision and warmth, presenting vivid instrumentals and commanding vocals. The treble extends with clear details, adding a touch of brilliance to the signature without becoming overly sharp. Overall, the Edition XS successfully combines HiFiMAN's distinctive sound with precision and realism, making it a tempting buy, especially given the reduced price and performance improvements in this iteration.

Edition XS Planar Headphone
Stealth Magnets Design
NEO Supernano Diaphragm
The new Edition XS expands on its predecessor's achievements with several essential upgrades. Featuring Stealth Magnet Technology and the company's NEO supernano Diaphragm, the Edition XS produces a wide, natural soundstage that puts the listener in the best seat in the house. The NEO supernano diaphragm is 75% thinner than the original version, resulting in lightning-fast response for detailed sonic output without discernible distortion.
Edition XS from HIFIMAN brings the depth and range of well-recorded music to an affordably priced headphone.
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 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.
HIFIMAN's NEO "supernano" Diaphragm (NSD)
The new NSD is 75% thinner than previous designs, resulting in fast response and detailed image with lush, full range sonics.
The Headband
The light weight, ergonomically accurate offers maximum comfort for hours of listening pleasure. The exterior is refined matte black material, and the interior features high-grade memory foam for the most comfortable fit and elasticity. The headphone's structural design supports overall durability that retains its comfortable fit for years of enjoyment.
The Cable
HIFIMAN's new 3.5mm sockets are similar to those found on most common audio devices. The supplied 3.5mm cable is user changeable and replaceable.
