What is it?

The HIFIMAN SUNDARA is an open-backed headphone with a specially designed
planar magnetic driver. The connection to which is made via the supplied cable
with socketed connectors which offers a secure and sturdy connection yet allow
for easy cable swapping. The headphone’s relatively high sensitivity is higher
than is typical in a planar magnetic headphone and allows it to be driven with
some ease by conventional headphone amplifiers and even many mobile phones.
The SUNDARA also offers an impressive frequency response range, from 6-75kHz
and with all the dynamic realism that HIFIMAN headphones are renowned for.

Compared with previous HIFIMAN headphones the SUNDARA features an all-new
headband that borrows from our two previous designs. All of the comfort and
even weight distribution of the latter style but the more conventional
appearance of the early designs. This means you can enjoy your audio in all
possible comfort and with their angled pads, you can listen all day long.
Sonically they share 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, delicately nuanced treble and rich, hearty, punchy
and rhythmic lows too. Vocals and strings are astonishingly true to life.

The SUNDARA 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
our own little SuperMini. Power, control, and finesse all sewn up into
sumptuous headphone that we think is as visually stunning as it is sounding.

How does it work?
