General Information


Delightfully revealing


We created our new Hi-X65 open-back headphones with mixing and mastering in mind. They’re built to satisfy the need for close, precise listening at these critical stages of the audio production process.
The same qualities that make them great for professional audio production also make them perfect for audiophiles who appreciate hearing every shade of nuance in the music they love.

High Precision meets pure Enjoyment.
Hi-X65 headphones are built around a driver that was first designed with open headphones in mind, and listening to them is like opening a new window on your music. The open-back design brings a natural and spacious sound, giving new clarity to the placement and character of its individual elements.
Hi-X65 headphones provide a high-resolution, precise aural perspective and a critical new tool for professional mixing and mastering.

Made in Austria.
You’ll understand the quality of your new Hi-X65 headphones the moment you take them out of the box, before you’ve even listened to the first note. They feel great in the hand and great on your ears, and the build quality is exceptional, as you would expect. The Hi-X65 headphones are designed, engineered, and manufactured in Austria by a team of passionate experts with long experience in crafting high-quality microphones and headphones for demanding audio professionals.
Of course, the final test of quality is in the listening. Put the headphones on, turn on your music, and experience for yourself the clarity and precision of Hi-X technology in an open-back design. You’ll hear exactly what we mean.

Cons: -nothing
Build: Wonderful, robust headphone, au pair or second to only DT770. Nice, industrial look.

Comfort: Excellent. Medium weight (at cca. 300g) but comfortable. Soft headband and pads. Robust and flexible mechanism. This is how headphone should be designed.

Isolation: Open back. You'll hear the environment and they will hear you.

Bass: Almost perfectly neutral. Open back that goes down to 20Hz without roll-off. About 1dB rise in upper bass.

Midrange: Very good. About 2dB rise in lower mids and big 6dB drop in the upper mids about 1.5kHz, but with little audible effect on tonality.

Treble: Excellent. 3.5 dB drop at the lower treble and 2dB rise at 6 kHz and 1dB in upper treble and air. Adding air while cutting hard edge on vocals. It can get sibilant, though.

Tonality: Bright neutral. S-

EQ: Not necessary. Great with Optimum HiFi. Add bass per preference. I love it with 4 dB boost.

Detail: Hard, fast transients. Fantastic clarity. This redefines the price bracket. There is no such a resolving driver under 1000 EUR. (Maybe LCD-2?)

Imaging: Good soundstage, precise imaging.

Dynamics: Fantastic, almost Fostex level punch n' slam.

Tech: A

Score: A

Value: Worth the blind. Best of Hifiman tuning, Focal technicalities, Beyerdynamic build and Sennheiser QC for the price of HD600. What are you waiting for?
