The Hifiman HE1000 headphones have totally redefined the landscape of audio headphones technology. Its natural sound, coupled with an unusual lightness, innovative design and comfort are just a few of the outstanding features of these headphones.
These headsets are actually the first to be manufactured with the Nanometer technology. The design of this product is a marked departure from the regular grid designs which tend to reflect sound waves, thereby causing audible sound interference and distortion. Instead, it has a unique design which features a patented “Window Shade” design which was crafted to protect the driver and also optimize the open design of the head set.
Hence, this patented “Window Shade” design enables it to significantly reduce incidents of interference of sound waves and also to avoid sound reflections and any unwelcome vibrations which cause distortion of the sound. The end result of this is a much more natural sound and remarkable audio clarity.

Features
The quality of these high-end headphones is not in doubt as they are expertly crafted, which is evident from its delicate craftsmanship.
In spite of its size, this product is very comfortable to wear and offers an excellent audio quality that can be matched by very few products. It has a stable and ergonomic headband arc structure which adapt to suit the shape of the user’s head. The Hifiman HE1000 headphones move very comfortably on the head.
Thanks to the nano size of the diaphragm on these headphones, the product has a low mass and a high tenacity which give it great dynamic response. So small is this diaphragm, that in actual fact, it is not visible to the human eye at first glance. This contributes significantly to the extraordinarily clear and detailed acoustic perception observed on these headphones. The audio quality is so clear and natural that it gives the listener the impression of listening to a performance by a live band.
The audio apertures found on the conventional planar driver headsets causes both reflection and refraction of sound waves which leads to the audible distortions on such headsets. To combat this defect, the Hifiman HE1000 headphones have an advanced asymmetric magnetic circuitry system which comprises of a two-faced, asymmetrical magnetic circuit that ensure an almost unadulterated reproduction of live music.
The advanced asymmetric drivers of the Hifiman HE1000 headphones have an internal magnetic circuitry size which optimizes the sound channels and gives a more vivid sound and playback that is more true to live music.
The shipped product package contains three different interchangeable connectivity cables for hooking up the headphones different types of equipment. Also included in the package is a faux leather box for storing the headphones when not in use.
These twin factors make it a very worthwhile investment for audiophiles and anybody who places a high premium on the audio quality of their music.
