Contacta con nosotrosThe Hi-X65 shares its core technology with the closed-back Hi-X60, but the driver is re-tuned for an open construction, with an open backplate letting the sound breathe freely. A 5 Hz–28 kHz frequency response, 110 dB SPL/V sensitivity, and low 25 Ω impedance give a detailed, low-distortion signal that drives without a dedicated headphone amp, though professional work benefits from one. The all-metal hinge and headband construction has been tested through 30,000 bend cycles on both the headband and cable, plus a roughly 2-meter drop test onto concrete.
An open design as a tool for judging space in a mix
A common problem when working with delays and reverbs: closed-back headphones make it hard to judge how subtle reflections and reverb tails sit in the mix, since a sealed earcup artificially narrows the soundstage. The Hi-X65's open backplate lets sound disperse freely, giving an airy, spacious stereo image where depth and width nuances become audible — which is why engineers working with layered spatial effects reach for it.
Neutrality instead of flattering EQ
Many consumer headphones boost bass or treble, making a mix sound appealing but hiding real problems before release. The Hi-X65 deliberately avoids that coloration — its raw response exposes weak points in a mix rather than masking them, letting an engineer make faster, more repeatable decisions whether working in the studio, at home, or on the road.
