Thank you for your purchase of a HIFIMAN product. We take great pride in

offering audio products that provide best-in-class performance and value.

Though it seems like only yesterday when I started HIFIMAN as a passionate

audiophile, we just finished our first decade in business and eagerly look

forward to an exciting future. The company has grown rapidly and the

HIFIMAN brand has become one of the most respected in the industry.

Even with our success, the one thing that has not changed is my passion for

music and creating products that help recreate that live experience. Now, I

am joined by many others in the company who share my passion and in

turn, we humbly share that with you.

Thank you again for your purchase. I hope you will find this guide useful in

learning about your product which will help you enjoy countless hours of

listening pleasure.

Happy listening,

The new HE6se is a return to the days of the legendar y HE6. One
of the early HIFIMAN models that solidified HIFIMAN’s reputation
as a world leader in Planar Magnetic technology. The legend is
reborn with the same driver and all its phenomenal musical talent
but with a modern twist. The new HE6se retains all the old sonic
performance of its illustrious predecessor but makes use of
HIFIMAN’s latest headband for both a more comfortable fit and
increased robustness. It also makes use of our latest design in
headphone connectors for better connectivity, cable swapping
ease and increased longevity.

The HIFIMAN HE6se is an open backed headphone with a planar
magnetic driver which offers an impressive frequency response
range, from 8Hz to 65 KHz and with all the spectacular dynamic
range the old HE6 was renowned for.

Sonically the HE6se shares the same HIFIMAN level of resolution
and even-handed sonic performance across the acoustic
spectrum that you have come to expect. Smooth and highly
extended at both ends, with their potent driver lows can reach
deep into the depths for a full and robust bass response while it
offers soulful, expressive mids and delicately scintillating treble.

The HE6se necessitates being used by a narrow range of sources,
demanding a recommended 2 watts per channel or more to allow
it to achieve its fullest musical potential, only the most capable of
headphone amplifiers will do. With its Impedance of 50Ohms and
sensitivity of only 83.5dB. It is also possible to use a speaker
