HIFIMAN SUSVARA UNVEILED OPEN-BACK PLANAR HEADPHONES

In the Headfonics review of the original Susvara, the headphone is praised as “one of the most immersive and technically capable planars” the reviewer has heard. It is lauded for its resolution, speed, and scale, though the author cautions that it “needs a very powerful amplifier.” Headfonics

The Headfonia / “Susvara Unveiled Review” discusses the newer version’s stylistic and acoustic changes. The Unveiled retains the Susvara’s headband and comfort, but introduces an exposed driver architecture (no grille) and magnetic covers for protection. The reviewer notes that though the exposed design might seem fragile, the veil covers do help guard the delicate diaphragm. In their listening tests, they found the Unveiled comfortable, with transparency increased, though cautioning that care must be taken in handling. Headfonia

HomeTheaterHiFi highlights the Unveiled’s diaphragm “almost lighter than air” and describes it as having the speed and accuracy akin to electrostatic designs, coupled with richer mids and low end relative to the original Susvara. HomeTheaterHifi.com
