HIFIMAN Edition XV – Flagship Planar Detail with Effortless Musicality

The HIFIMAN Edition XV is a planar magnetic headphone designed to take the brand’s legacy of high-performance open-back designs to the next level.

Built around HIFIMAN’s large planar magnetic driver with ultra-thin diaphragm technology, the Edition XV delivers exceptional speed, transparency, and soundstage performance like no other planar headphone before it.

With a 32Ω impedance and high sensitivity, the XV remains surprisingly easy to drive while scaling beautifully with high-quality DACs and amplifiers, making it an excellent headphone for both desktop and portable listening setups.

Advanced Planar Magnetic Driver for Speed, Detail, and Low Distortion

At the heart of the Edition XV is HIFIMAN’s second-generation advanced planar magnetic driver, engineered with an ultra-thin diaphragm that responds instantly to audio signals.

This lightweight diaphragm works in combination with a carefully optimized magnet structure to produce fast transient response, ultra-low distortion, and exceptional detail retrieval.

The result is a sound signature that delivers deep, controlled bass, natural mids, and airy treble, with the clarity and separation planar headphones are known for.

Open-Back Design for Expansive Soundstage and Natural Imaging

The Edition XV features a fully open-back acoustic design that allows sound waves to move freely through the ear cups. This reduces internal reflections and coloration, resulting in a wider soundstage, more natural imaging, and improved instrument separation.

Whether you're listening to orchestral recordings, live performances, or complex studio mixes, the open architecture helps create a spacious and immersive listening experience.

Lightweight Construction for Long Listening Comfort

Despite its large planar driver, the Edition XV maintains a lightweight and ergonomic design that’s comfortable enough for extended listening sessions.

The adjustable headband distributes weight evenly across the head, while the large ear cups and plush ear pads provide a relaxed, pressure-free fit.

This combination allows listeners to enjoy the headphone’s detailed presentation for hours without fatigue.

Detachable High-Quality Cable for Flexible Connectivity

The Edition XV includes a high-quality detachable cable system designed to preserve signal purity and allow easy upgrades.

Using dual 3.5mm connectors at the ear cups, the headphone supports a variety of cable options and terminations depending on your setup.

Whether you're connecting to a portable player, DAC/amp, or full desktop system, the detachable design ensures seamless flexibility and long-term compatibility with a wide range of audio devices.
