HIFIMAN HE-400i Planar Magnetic Headphones Preview

The HE400i are a full-size planar magnetic headphones intended for high performance listening at home of in the studio, these are the new and improved replacement for the HE-400.  HIFIMAN did an impressive job upgrading the HE400i, the build quality and the design is much better than the older model, a new headband is same to the one used in their higher model the HE560, which provides better weight distribution, and a more secure grip on the head, plus its much more durable. By using a new and improved single sided magnet structure, Dr Fang the founder of HIFIMAN was able to reduce the weight of the HE400i to become 30% lighter than all other comparable headphones to become one of the most comfortable planar magnetic headphones in the market. the new magnet design has not only reduced the weight but also made a great improvement with the sound quality, the 400i sounds more natural with a nice extension to the treble, bass is well controlled with no noticeable distortions.

Dr Fang made sure also the drivers of the HE-400i are more efficient and easier to drive that the HE-400 which where power hungry and really tough to drive, the 400i will sound good from almost all available good DAPs (Digital Audio Player) in the market, but they will sound great if paired with a good AMP.

Considering all of the above point and the price mark of 2150 AED, that makes the HE400i  great choice to try out and would recommend it to everyone.
