SUNDARA (open-box)

Everything went fine with order and delivery. I'm very happy with my new Earphones.

These phones are so much better than the price would suggest. Previously using Grado and Sennheiser headphones, the Sundaras were a revelation. Absolutely love them!

These headphones are so-called "open box" headphones, but they actually like brand new. What can I say? Spectacular headphones, especially at this price! Excellent sound, especially with high-resolution music. I'm using them with a small and inexpensive Douk Audio U3 mini connected to a Raspberry Pi with an Innomaker DAC board, and they sound divine. Happy with the purchase.

If it weren't for the opened packaging, I would have assumed these headphones were brand new.
The HIFIMAN Sundara feel very well built, with a solid construction and a clean, refined appearance. From a sonic perspective, they are extremely precise and articulate, with excellent instrument separation and a very good sense of detail. The presentation is well controlled and spacious, allowing individual elements of the recording to be easily distinguished.
That said, I have to admit that this particular sound signature may not be my personal ideal for long listening sessions. The Sundara tend to emphasize precision, clarity and analytical detail rather than a warmer or more relaxed presentation. However, this was exactly the kind of listening experience I wanted to explore, which is why I decided to purchase them.
Considering the overall build quality and, above all, the level of sound performance, the price I paid for this open-box pair was exceptional. They offer an impressive level of performance for the money and represent excellent value for anyone looking for a detailed and highly resolving planar-magnetic headphone.
Overall, I am very satisfied with the purchase and with the condition of the open-box unit.

Great headphone! In particular, for the price, it is impressive.
