HiFiMAN Susvara – Flagship Planar Magnetic Open‑Back Headphones
 
The HiFiMAN Susvara is the brand’s flagship open-back planar magnetic headphone, designed for uncompromising sonic performance. Built with an ultra-thin nanometre-grade diaphragm and HiFiMAN’s proprietary Stealth Magnet system, the Susvara delivers exceptional resolution, speed, and natural tonality across the frequency range. Its transparency, imaging, and timbral accuracy place it among the finest headphones available today.
 
This is a high-impedance, low-sensitivity headphone that demands powerful amplification, but when properly driven, the payoff is extraordinary—layered soundstages, life-like realism, and musicality without compromise.
 
Acoustic Performance:
The Susvara is renowned for its clarity and finesse. Bass is tight and textured, mids are articulate and lifelike, while highs extend effortlessly without fatigue. The headphone offers an incredibly balanced presentation, with dynamics and micro-detail that allow complex recordings to unfold with ease. Its holographic imaging and sense of scale make it a favourite among critical listeners and mastering professionals.
 
Ideal Use Case:
Best paired with a powerful Class A amplifier or high-end headphone amplifier, the Susvara is suited for home listening environments where maximum performance can be extracted. It is not designed for portability or casual plug-and-play use.
 
The HiFiMAN Susvara is an elite-tier headphone that caters to serious audiophiles who demand reference-grade performance. Its combination of speed, spatial realism, and refinement makes it a true endgame headphone in the planar magnetic category.
