Our Take
The large sculpted earcup design does its job by providing more open-back-like characteristics in a closed-back headphone – both in giving the bass more room to breathe, and allowing for a better sense of space. The HE-R10P is the evolution of a classic design and the new king of closed-back performance. |
From HIFIMAN
The HE-R10P features large earcups made of cherry wood that provide the necessary breathing room with substantial spatial volume and output that reflects the best of both closed and open-back designs. Each cup is adorned with a CNC (computer numerical control) carving that marries wood and aviation-grade aluminum with elegance and style.
The exterior of the HE-R10P is made of all-natural lambskin surrounding high-grade memory foam for maximum comfort and elasticity. The headband skeleton is constructed of solid steel.
Adding to the overall fit of the headphone are HIFIMAN’s “Tranquility” earpads, featuring high-quality suede on the outside, with a ring-shaped inner surface to absorb sound and prevent leakage, thereby focusing the sound on the listener’s ear. The contact edge is constructed of highly permeable material further to ensure comfort for hours-long listening sessions.
Just as the headphone’s components are top-shelf, the cable, too, represents a new design. A single-crystal, silver-plated structure is highlighted by a high strand count and other elements to guarantee low signal loss and total strength to withstand hours of daily use. Also, the TRSS plug/socket solution allows for a direct balanced input routed to the appropriate drivers.
Respect the classic model and surpass its performance.
