About the Audivina LE
The HIFIMAN Audivina LE is a closed-back, circumaural planar magnetic headphone that refines the original Audivina with a new earcup shell material to reduce acoustic resonance, enhanced structural reinforcement, and surface texturing for better accuracy, low-frequency boost, reduced weight, and improved comfort. It incorporates Stealth Magnets for acoustically transparent performance minimizing wave diffraction and distortion, paired with the NEO Supernano Diaphragm Gen. 2 which is 80% thinner for faster, more detailed response. The acoustic chamber draws inspiration from Bayreuth Festspielhaus, delivering an open soundstage despite closed-back design. Includes detachable cables: 1.5m 3.5mm SE, 3m XLR balanced, 3m 6.35mm SE; eco-friendly silky leatherette earpads with high-tech fabrics; redesigned composite headband Gen. 2 with swivel hinges for 20-30g weight reduction. Available since September 2025, currently in production.
