Austrian Audio - Hi-X65

The Austrian Audio Hi-X65 headphones are built around a driver that was designed for open-back headphones. The listening experience on these is natural with a spacious sound and clear distinction in placement and character of individual elements. These headphones provide a high-resolution, precise aural perspective, unlike many others. Austrian Audio Hi-X65 open-back headphones are engineered for mixing and mastering. These headphones are perfect for close and accurate listening required for all critical stages of the audio production process. These qualities make them great for multiple uses and are perfect for audiophiles who appreciate hearing every minute detail in the music they love.

The Hi-Xcursion (High Excursion) technology embedded in the Hi-X65 headphones is the key to their astonishing sound. These headphones feature a 44mm driver and a ring magnet system. This design is implemented for improved airflow and includes the strongest magnetic field in its class. The ring magnet, combined with a copper-clad aluminium voice coil, reduces the weight of the membrane and the voice coil connected to it, allowing the membrane to move or change direction faster, providing a more responsive impulse reaction. Measurements and listening tests have shown that a 44mm driver is the optimum size for this design. It ensures professional performance in the Hi-X, moves a lot of air, and eliminates ‘wobbling’ of the diaphragm. This is akin to damping the driver mass. This is where our membrane really shows results: it is ultra-stiff while still reducing unwanted resonance. This also reduces THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) considerably.

The build quality on the Austrian Audio Hi-X65 headphone is sturdy. They feature all metal hinges and bow for maximum stability and are foldable making them easy to store and carry around. The headphone feels great in the hand and is comfortable to wear. These headphones are designed, engineered and manufactured in Austria by a team of passionate experts with years of experience in crafting high-quality microphones and headphones. This reflects in every inch of the design and they feel extremely well-crafted.

The Austrian Audio Hi-X65 headphones ship with two detachable cables for use. One 3m and a 1.2m cable for easy replacement, portability and safety from damage. The headphone also features a 3.5mm adapter for on the fly use and even a 6.3mm adapter for professional connections. The Earpads used in the Hi-X65 headphones are made of soft slow retention memory foam. These provide great comfort and are perfectly suitable for long listening sessions.
