Our Take

The Sundara is efficient enough to work with many portable devices, but will sound its best with a solid headphone amplifier behind it, we recommend the for portable use or the for home use.

NEO “Supernano” Diaphragm (NsD)

“Hear what you have been missing”: The all new NsD is 80% thinner than previous designs resulting in a faster, more detailed response while retaining lush musicality never before possible. At between 1 to 2 microns tick, the NsD diaphragm sets all the standards. HIFIMAN has advanced its manufacturing processes to create this all new planar driver at unheard of prices. HIFIMAN has again set an all new bar for performance/value ration that the rest of the industry will have a very hard time following.

Hybrid Headband Design

The new Sundara has a carefully designed weight dispersing strap allowing the headband to offer outstanding comfort. All combined in an accentuated fashion conscious look, with a sleek and sumptuous matte black finish. Form follows function with a sleek visual headband that uses lightweight aluminum to keep it srgon, light and urban friendly.
