HIFIMAN is proudly celebrating its first decade and noting here some of our
many milestones in those first ten years.
Though the company’s first product was a landmark portable player,
HIFIMAN is best known for its high performance full-size headphones
utilizing planar magnetic technology. Though this technology wasn’t new
when HIFIMAN began its journey, it did present significant challenges to
headphone designers. Planar headphones were heavy, uncomfortable and
very inefficient requiring large amplifiers that didn’t readily exist at the time.
HIFIMAN met those challenges head on and began designing headphones
that not only sounded amazing but pushed at the boundaries of what was
possible from a planar magnetic headphone. For example, the Edition X V2
is so efficient it can be driven by a smartphone. That was unthinkable just a
few years ago. This development trend steadily continues to today where
the planar has stylish headphones that combine best-in-class sonic
performance with sublime comfort.
"I give a lot of credit to HIFIMAN for the renaissance we're now seeing in
high-end headphones, and in particular for the recent resurgence of interest
in planar magnetic headphones. Fang Bian has done a great deal to
advance the art of headphone sound."

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,
