HIFIMAN Susvara
A legend in the high-end headphone world
These headphones are in absolutely mint condition, both technically and cosmetically, and were opened only once for demonstration purposes. They are supplied with all original accessories, full manufacturer’s warranty, and an extended warranty upon registration with HIFIMAN.
A true high-end icon
When thinking about flagship headphones, there are only a handful of models that immediately come to mind – and one of the very first is almost always the Susvara. Introduced by HIFIMAN in 2017 as an uncompromising statement product and only subtly refined since, it has firmly established itself as a benchmark in the summit-fi segment.
The Susvara is widely regarded as the planar magnetic headphone against which all others are measured. Often mentioned alongside the Focal Utopia as an ultimate all-rounder, their sonic philosophies differ clearly: while the Utopia focuses on punch and immediacy, the Susvara presents a wider soundstage, more refined treble and an effortless level of detail. The Utopia stings like a bee – the Susvara floats like a butterfly.
Paired with the right amplifier, its qualities become immediately obvious, explaining why it consistently appears in the top-three lists of virtually every major reviewer.
Extended frequency response, fast and impactful transients, ultimate detail retrieval and a natural soundstage.
Awarded the highest Gold Award.
One of the most immersive and technically capable planar headphones available today, with zero listening fatigue.
Gold Award.
If I had that fortune, this is the headphone I would buy. Comfortable, extremely detailed and tonally balanced.
My favorite headphone, period.

Measurements
Frequency response
What does this mean?
The line marked as target is something you could call the “ideal” curve: a target response derived from research by the Harman group, exploring what kind of headphone tuning tends to be preferred by a broad range of listeners – regardless of age or demographics. This is often referred to as the Harman Target.
From left to right you see sub-bass, bass, mids, and then the curve tilts upward where treble begins. That part of the spectrum is naturally amplified by the shape of the human ear.
Unlike many headphones that emphasize bass, the Susvara remains exceptionally linear into the midrange. This tuning places sounds slightly further away from the ear, resulting in a wide, open soundstage.
From the upper midrange onward, the tuning closely follows the target curve – resulting in an exceptionally balanced and versatile reference headphone.
