HIFIMAN Titanium Diaphragm with Nano-Coating

The special dual driver design developed by HIFIMAN offers smooth and seamless reproduction of different music frequency bands.
8.5mm for high/mid/upper bass
9mm for low bass.
Impedance: 12 Ohms
Sensitivity: 105dB

 
Near full range 8.5 mm driver and a dedicated sub-bass driver. So, could we expect the classic Hifiman house sound but now with some much needed sub-bass?
I am genuinely excited

 
(Aside: RE400 was 8.5mm)

I received the email too. But I was expecting a universal version.

The price looks reeeeeeaaalllyyy good now.

Looks really good, the 12 ohm impedance is a bit of bummer though.

Yeeeeees, now i need to find out what kind of impression they need. I need to bring forward my audiologist visit .

i doubt it, dynamic drivers have a flat impedance response so shouldn't be an issue. 

 

[leobigfield]

They should have used the RE0 driver for the highs...

it's not a matter of impedance curve. built-in amps have troubles with really low impedance very often

i hope they will release universal version down the line.

Those graphs lol. K10 and JH16 are also only BA... weak bass huh.

 

[AstralStorm]

Yes, about the only BA out there approaching dynamic driver bass quality I know is Spiral Ear SE5 and its distortion and signature leave quite a bit to be desired, esp. for the price.

I wager the woofer is tweaked RE300 while full range is a further development of RE600, hopefully bit less dark. 300 + 600 + tweaks = 1000. Only gripe is the acrylic, though making dynamic driver IEMs in silicone is extremely hard. UM is actually known for great workmanship.

My main gripe of Hifiman cabling goes away in a CIEM with a replaceable cable.

 

[leobigfield]

Still no impressions on them?

 

[AstralStorm]

Someone has to get the first pair ever. Well, you might be in luck, I'm considering it. Then they get to be made and sent via post...

 

[Tympan]

Subbed. I got a good feeling about these DD only CIEMs 

 

[Max Choiral]

let's cross the fingers for it'll live longer than re0 and other Hifiman earphones
