Home / Austrian Audio Hi-X50 Professional On-Ear Closed-Back Headphones
Product Overview
High Performance in a Compact Form
The Hi-X50 brings the award-winning "High Excursion" sound to an on-ear format. While many on-ear headphones struggle with bass clarity, the Hi-X50 utilizes a 44mm driver system optimized for airflow to ensure a linear, uncolored low-end. Its closed-back design and high-density memory foam pads provide superior passive noise attenuation, keeping your focus on the mix even in loud venues or crowded studios.
Product Description
High Excursion (Hi-X) Technology:
The core of the Hi-X50 is its specialized 44mm driver. By using a ring magnet system and a copper-clad aluminum voice coil, Austrian Audio has significantly reduced the weight of the moving parts. This allows the diaphragm to react with incredible speed, delivering a sound that is detailed, dynamic, and free from resonance. This precision makes it easier to detect phase issues, distortion, or subtle artifacts in your audio signal.
Built for the Rigors of the Road:
All-Metal Durability: Unlike many portable headphones, all load-bearing parts of the Hi-X50—including the hinges and the headband bow—are constructed from high-strength metal for long-term professional reliability.
Superior Isolation: The specialized earpad design and closed-back architecture offer excellent shielding against ambient noise, which is critical for tracking vocals or monitoring in a live sound environment.
Foldable and Portable: The headphones feature a compact folding design, allowing them to be easily stored in the included carry bag for travel between sessions.
Professional Comfort and Utility:
The Austrian Audio Hi-X50 features "slow-retention" memory foam earpads that provide a secure yet comfortable fit, even during extended wear. With a low impedance of 25 Ω, these headphones are incredibly efficient and can be driven to professional levels by laptops, mobile interfaces, or standard studio gear. For added longevity, the earpads and headband padding are user-replaceable.
