## Description

Product Description Stunning Audio Value About HIFIMAN Founded by Dr. Fang Bian in 2007, HIFIMAN is widely regarded as one of the leading manufacturers of high performance headphones and portable audio products. HIFIMAN is especially known for its critically-acclaimed Planar-Magnetic headphones that feature state-of-the-art driver technology. The company also designs and manufactures world-class dynamic in-ear drivers. Headphone Specifications Impedance: 32Ω Sensitivity: 94dB Frequency Response: 8Hz-65kHz Weight: 430g (15.2oz) Nanometer Thickness Diaphragm Acoustically Invisible Stealth Magnet Patented “Window Shade” System Asymmetrical Ear Cups Metal and High-Grade Plastic Construction Sturdy 3.5mm User-replaceable Connector Design Bold Black Aesthetic Unlike the sound waves created by a conventional magnet, the special shape of Stealth Magnets enables the waves to pass through the magnets without generating interference. HIFIMAN’s advanced magnet design is acoustically transparent, dramatically reducing wave diffraction turbulence that degrades the integrity of the sound waves. The reduced distortion yields pure sonic output that is accurate and full-range. A breakthrough core technology developed by HIFIMAN and first of its kind in headphone application. Working with this advanced material is extremely challenging yet the successful incorporation of this film as the Arya’s planar driver is the cornerstone of its remarkable sound. Allows easy cable swapping, giving both maximum durability and enhanced customizability. With its classic HE1000-style shape combined and striking good looks of its all-black exterior, glossy black headband, and eye-catching matte-black cups and grill, the Arya is a statement of both aesthetic and sonic excellence. Created to meet the need for driver protection and an optimized open-back design Follows the natural shape of the human ear. HIFIMAN designed the Arya's high-quality metal headband with extra strength and a special high-grade plastic for lightweight comfort and rugged durability. Cables The Arya keeps things simple with a single Crystalline Copper cable. Featuring a 6.35mm plug and a jet black woven exterior finish it’s the perfect complement to the sound and sight of the Arya.

Review: Superb Planar at a great price - Build: These are built like a tank. Structural parts are all metal with some decent quality plastics. Anything you do, somehow, manage to break can be replaced. cable is fine, but i upgraded it basically immediately. Sound: Absolutely fantastic. Detailed, good soundstage, good separation. Great tuning all round with smooth, detailed bass and sub-bass. Can be run off your phone, i guess, but best paired with an amp/dac. Surprisingly good for pc gaming, though there's no isolation at all. Comfort: reasonable weight. very comfortable. i wear these for literally 6-12+ hours a day. Massive earcups with plenty of room for even the largest of ears. Headband goes from decently large to 'absolute melon' in size. Price: These were originally a £1000+ headphone, and were well-regarded at that price. Now its under £500. Great value for money.
Review: Incredible Sound at an Unbeatable Price - I purchased the HIFIMAN Arya Stealth headphones for £510 — a phenomenal discount compared to the original MSRP — and I couldn’t be happier with my investment. The sound quality is absolutely breath-taking. The planar magnetic drivers deliver an expansive soundstage with pinpoint imaging, making these headphones perfect for critical listening. The detail retrieval is exceptional; I’m discovering nuances in my favorite tracks that I never noticed before. Whether it’s the tight, controlled bass, the lush mids, or the airy, extended highs, the Arya Stealth handles everything with remarkable clarity and balance. Comfort is another big plus. The suspension-style headband and plush ear cups make long listening sessions a joy. I’ve worn these for hours without any discomfort, and they feel sturdy yet lightweight. Pairing the HIFIMAN Arya Stealth with the RME ADI-2 DAC is a match made in audiophile heaven. The RME’s transparent and highly detailed sound signature perfectly complements the Arya’s warm-neutral tonality, allowing its full potential to shine. The Arya’s planar magnetic drivers thrive with the RME’s ample power and precise control, delivering a tight, extended bass response, lifelike mids, and sparkling treble without any harshness. The RME’s built-in parametric EQ is a bonus, letting you fine-tune the sound to your exact preferences, though you may find little adjustment necessary as the pairing is already so harmonious. Together, they create an engaging and incredibly detailed listening experience that feels immersive and effortless, making this combination a must-try for anyone looking to elevate their home audio setup.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these v2 or v3?**
A: The version they gave me were the stealth magnet version, v3

**Q: Can anyone recommend a few dacs/amps for the arya’s, please?**
A: I can only recommend the combo that I've got which I'm using for both my Focal Clear and Hifiman Arya - Topping D90 (MQA) + Topping A90. In balanced mode the sound is absolutely sublime - even though the Aryas are not easy to drive, I only need to use the medium gain when using the balanced output (high gain for the single-ended output). Lots of power, clear and precise sound, and a wonderful sound stage which sounds even more 3D in balanced mode. These are linear-sounding devices so they will enable your headphones to show their true colours without any colouration - my Focal Clears are beautifully balanced with heavenly mids, while the Aryas are beautifully extended in the lows and highs with a tall and deep soundstage and wonderful sound layering. I used to run my headphones using a PC sound card (Asus Xonar Essence STX II) thinking that since it's powerful enough (because it is) to drive them, there's no point in spending money on an external DAC and amp. This combo has changed my mind. I've realised that an audio set-up is only as good as the weakest link in the chain and there are no shortcuts here if you want to experience your headphones' full potential.  Quality files (I use Tidal FLACs and MQAs) + good DAC and amp + a good XLR cable and headphones like the Aryas = audio nirvana.

**Q: Is this V1 or V2?**
A: V2

**Q: For anyone who's ordered in the last few months did you get the stealth or organic model , tia**
A: This is the stealth version and I highly recommended it. The Hifiman store has the best price at the moment.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredibly good
*by M***M on 16 January 2025*

These things are not going to be beaten in their price point. Not had any QA issues that people spoke about. Insanely comfortable, I had the Sundaras but they hurt my ear, these are more encompassing of the whole ear, they are heavy but dont feel it. The soundstage is incredibly wide and immersive - these produce some of the cleanest, most detailed sound I've ever heard. Bass is deep and textured without being overwhelming, mids are crystal clear, and the treble is detailed without being harsh. Even in busy tracks with multiple layers, you can hear every element distinctly. Vocals are particularly impressive - you can hear subtle breaths and inflections that just get lost on lesser headphones. Just overall very good at everything. While they're not cheap, they compete with headphones costing significantly more. They're well-built, the cable is good quality, and the ear pads are premium. They do benefit from a decent amp, but don't need anything too crazy to sound great. For anyone stepping up from mid-fi headphones like the Sundara, these are a significant upgrade that's actually worth the price unlike many / most headphones above this price point. The comfort alone makes them worth it for long listening sessions.
