There is a sense that HiFiMAN are making a consistent attempt to respond to feedback and improve their product line, but also a sense that they know you'll replace the cable anyway. If all that sounds hokey to you, then a balanced input to your headphone will get you an extra 3dB anyway and make it easier to get to a listenable volume so it's worth a punt. I had to fully extend the Sundara's headband and it was still a little tight on my head, whilst with the XS I only extend them by one notch to fit them comfortably. HiFiMAN PR have sent me the edition Xs’ for the purpose of review, they’re not seeing this content before it goes live nor do they have any control over the editorial content.

Und weil die den besten Bass haben sollen und ein ähnliches Prinzip einer großen Membran wie bei Elektrostaten, die ja legendär sein sollen.

The Sundara begins to roll-off noticably at 40Hz and under, while the XS doesn't roll-off until well under 20Hz - although the bass isn't exactly prominent either, being a consistent volume from 20 - 250Hz. Unfortunately it seems to be a bit too soft, as the cable tie provided with the cable was wrapped tightly enough to get the cable in the smallish pouch that it's managed to noticably dent the rubber. The fact that the drivers are larger than your ears allows for much better vertical depth and imaging than the round cup design on the Sundara as well. Der gute alte DT880 hat jetzt erstmal seinen Ruhestand erreicht, was ich ja gar nicht geplant hatte weil ich dachte bei manchen Stücken könnte er doch besser sein (manche Frequenzen sind bei den THD Diagrammen etwas besser und auch die Wasserfalldiagramme sind besser beim DT880.

Sound quality is top notch especially when you push the volume up a bit which seems to bring out the best in them! The cable supplied with the XS appears to be a response to this criticism, as the rubber insulation used is very soft and malleable and effortlessly coils, uncoils and takes any shape as much as you like with no memory. Bei Thomann hätte ich ja auch genug Zeit um die 30 Tage zu testen und wenn er nicht besser wäre zurück zu schicken. For this technology, Hifiman has optimized the air turbulence and reflection of the sound waves inside the driver cavity.There are as many people who strongly prefer the Sundara's faux leather headband strap design also used on the Ananda as there are people who hate it. The HiFiMAN Edition XS is an unusual headphone indeed among an already unusual range of headphones from HiFiMAN. audio jacks this would allow the Edition Xs’, as well as any other headphones that HiFiMAN sell with the same cable connector. While the Sundaras reach a listenable volume quite easily without an amp, the XS is that little bit harder to drive to the point that you'll struggle to get as much out of it without an amp. Personally, I find both headband designs to be equally comfortable and have no preference, which might actually be the most controversial take!
