Product Details

Audio46's Opinion

The Susvara floored us with its extensive and captivating soundstage, featuring an impressively quick and controlled response almost reminiscent of an electrostatic sound. In terms of tonality, the Susvara delivers a neutral-to-natural, highly coherent presentation. One of its notable strengths lies in its exceptional articulation, offering a near-flawless performance in the low to midrange frequencies. The subtle energy in the treble range remains beautifully balanced, avoiding any intrusive or harsh features. And overall, the Susvara offers a new standard for planar performance that few other headphones can match.

A Heavenly Melody

HIFIMAN Susvara a heavenly melody

Acoustically Invisible Stealth Magnets

The advanced magnet design used for the first time on the SUSVARA, aims to be acoustically transparent, dramatically reducing wave diffraction turbulence which degrades the integrity of the sound waves. The result is reduced distortion, yielding a purer, more harmonious sound that is audibly so.

Unlike the sound waves created by a conventional magnet, the special shape of stealth magnet of SUSVARA enables the waves to pass through the magnet without generating interference.

Degradation of sound quality in a conventional planar magnetic headphone is caused by the magnets getting in the way of the sound wave.

The same happens in conventional electrostatic headphone, the degradation of sound quality caused by the stator's interference.

A conventional dynamic driver's frequency response can be altered due to distortions and vibrations across the diaphragm surface.

Nanometer Grade

The driver's incredible thinness, less than a millionth of a meter and extremely low mass means it can produce tremendously low distortion levels yet offer a highly dynamic response.

By combining this diaphragm and "Stealth Magnet" technology each working in harmony, the audio produced is of a remarkable tonal quality and clarity.

Sonic Serenity

The "Window Shade" on the SUSVARA has been painstakingly optimized to avoid any resonant frequencies. This leads to superior aural purity, tonally clean and unadulterated yet provides practical protection for the ultra-fine diaphragm and additional offering an appealing visual aesthetic.

The Ultimate Complements

The EF1000 is the SUSVARA's official amplifier, which utilizes a separate power supply design. Its SSRP circuit uses six 6922 vacuum tubes and six pairs of transmitters in parallel. The result is a perfect combination of the beautiful sound from the vacuum tubes and the powerful output of a solid state amp.

State of the Sonic Art

It's difficult for headphone designers to balance all the things listeners want in a flagship headphone. But HiFiMan succeeds brilliantly with the Susvara. While best known for the intricate musical detail it delineates, the Susvara also manages to have state-of-the-art dynamics, deeply satisfying tonal color, and a cathedral-like soundstage. Yes, it's famously difficult to drive but I feel that's a bit exaggerated. However, the more quality power you give it the more magic it will give you back. Yes, magic. No other word captures what the Susvara can conjure.

Hifiman Susvara

Definitely the best headphone I’ve ever heard. I was surprised that it wasn’t actually that hard to drive. Certainly scales up though. Paired with the Bigger Ben is simply perfection.
