HifiMan OG HE-500 Planar Magnetic Headphone I will probably regret selling these... This is one of the legendary, original HifiMan HE-500 planars. This is a can I thought Id never sell, but I must fund new kit... It kicks as good as advertised, and the vocal presentation is as good as everyone says it is. If you read the HE-500 thread on HeadFi, its full of people expounding why the HE-500 has no equal for vocal presentation, even in 2023. Endgame headphone for many. However, I am a drummer, so drum presentation is what I place most value in. These do drums brilliantly, but theres other cans that do drums more to my taste. These image great, have an excellent stage and punch hard, which all translate to a jaw-dropping experience. Just try listing to Pink Floyds Time on these, or Peter Gabriels Sledgehammer to be stunned. And if you want to get kicked in the head, try Karnivools Goliath! This can is all original, apart from the pads - theyre DCA Angled Lamb Skin pads. If you read how is best to experience the HE-500, its with these pads; particularly when it comes to bass. These are the only pads included. There is however the original cable (4 Pin XLR), along with a newer HQ OFC cable (4 Pin XLR). Comes with the original case and documentation. This has been well-looked after, always stored in the case. Condition: Great condition as you can see from the pictures. The case is dog-eared, and the original cable is showing its age, but the headphone and the newer cable are both in excellent condition, as you can see from the pictures. This headphone is in perfect working order and has been well looked after.
