HIFIMAN HE1000se Planar Magnetic Headphone

Nanometer diaphragm

When it comes to detail retrieval, no factor is more important than the diaphragm. Required to oscillate up to 20,000 times a second, most diaphragms, which are made of plastic or cardboard, can’t overcome the hurdle of their own inertia to reproduce lifelike detail. The HE1000se, on the other hand, features a diaphragm that’s less than a millionth of a meter thick. This exceptional thinness allows it to reproduce unparalleled details and lifelike imaging that you won’t find on other headphones. 

All-day comfort

The ear cups of the HE1000se are asymmetrical, following the natural shape of the human ear for a natural fit you can enjoy for marathon listening sessions. 

Protection meets purity

The HE1000se features a “window shade” grill that both protects the driver with its sturdy metallic material and allows ample space for sound waves to escape, resulting in both durability and sonic purity. 

Acoustically-invisible stealth magnets

While many open back headphones prevent sound waves from escaping with poorly designed drivers, the HE1000se utilizes a specially-shaped magnet which allows waves to pass through without generating interference. The result is a massive reduction in wave diffraction turbulence and far less distortion.
