For Sale:
FS: HiFiMan HE5 (no cracks) *revision and price drop*
Will Ship To: Anywhere
For sale are the originals that (re)started the ortho revolution - the HE5. These are in good condition with not even a hint of cracking. I would rank these to be in “very good” condition if it were not for the fact that somewhere along the road one of the little spacers on the left armature disappeared, and I have used a black twist tie as a replacement (you can see it if you look closely at some of the pictures). If you want to give it a go, you could unscrew them, and put a small washer in there to replace it, but it really isn’t necessary. The wood and headband is in outstanding shape, and these come from a non-smoking home in a temperate climate.
This includes the original box, cable, and angled velour pads. EDIT: The extra cable and pads were sold for another listing, and are no longer included.
I am the second owner (originally owned by alphaphoenix, a well-respected seller and community member).
These are a great pair of headphones for those wanting a more fun, spacious-sounding alternative to the HE5-LE.
Price includes insured double-boxed shipment within the continental U.S. I am happy to sell overseas, but you will have to be able to use Paypal, and you may need to cover extra shipping/insurance/potential fees.
I have more feedback from the old FS forums here:
