HiFi Man HE1000 V2 Stealth headphones are the latest updated Stealth Edition of HiFi Man's flagship HE-100 and remain a cutting-edge, full-size headphone intended for reference use in the home or studio. At much less than 0.001 mm, its Nanotech planar magnetic driver is so thin it is not visible from the side with the naked eye.

Planar magnetic headphones for low distortion
Although more expensive to make, planar magnetic headphones offer a number of advantages over conventional dynamic ones. These include lighter diaphragms for a faster response and a linear spread of sound across the speaker, reducing the level of distortion.

World’s first Nanometre thick diaphragms for enhanced detail and speed
Developed by HIFIMAN and the first of its kind, the HE1000V2 uses incredibly thin diaphragms for an exceptionally musical response. Thinner diaphragms are lighter, meaning music is faster to respond and react to differences in tempo. Lighter weight also makes for superior high-end detail and a more nuanced sound. In short, the sound is more lifelike than ever.

Advanced magnet layout for clarity
Seven years of painstaking research and development have produced a new way to reduce soundwave interference and enhance clarity as a result. Asymmetrical magnet layout uses smaller magnets on the ear side of the drive unit. Smaller magnets mean less resistance and wave distortion from the passing soundwaves – meaning you hear a truer sound.

Designed for clearer sound
Eye-catching ‘window shade grilles’ give these headphones aesthetic appeal. More than that, though, the grilles perform a practical purpose in greatly reducing sonic reflections. Reduced reflection means a less muddled sound and greater clarity.

Shaped to fit
Stylish, asymmetrical earcups not only look distinctive, but also follow the shape of your ears for a perfect fit. Large earcups envelope your ears for immersive comfort. The wide, perforated headband evenly distributes weight over your head, making these headphones supremely comfortable to wear for hours on end.

Premium finish
Constructed from hand polished, CNC milled aluminium, the HE1000 V2s look as good as they sound. Contrasting, wooden earcups complete the premium, luxury style.

Top quality crystalline copper/silver cables – with your choice of plug
Constructed from high-grade, crystalline copper and silver, the supplied cables offer low signal loss and a wide frequency response – maximising the headphone’s potential. Three cables are supplied, with plugs to suit your connection – 4 pin XLR, 6.35mm and 3.5mm.
