The Surgical Tool for Your Mix
The Hi-X55 is engineered to uncover every detail in your recording. Its closed-back design features a double acoustic wall for superior passive isolation, making it ideal for tracking in the booth or mixing in loud environments. By utilizing a 44mm driver system optimized for airflow and impulse response, Austrian Audio has created a headphone that offers an "honest" sonic image, free from the artificial "wobbling" or coloration found in standard consumer models.
High Excursion (Hi-X) Innovation:
The core of the Hi-X55 is its custom 44mm driver. This "High Excursion" technology uses an advanced ring magnet system and a copper-clad aluminum voice coil to reduce the overall weight of the moving parts. This results in a membrane that moves faster and more precisely, allowing you to hear subtle nuances in vocal takes, the sharp crack of a snare, or the intricate textures of a synth pad with extreme clarity.
Designed for Marathon Sessions:
Memory Foam Comfort: The earpads are made from slow-retention memory foam that conforms to your head shape, reducing pressure points and providing a reliable acoustic seal for hours.
All-Metal Durability: To withstand the rigors of studio life and tour buses, all critical components—including the hinges and the head bow—are made of high-strength metal.
Serviceable Design: For long-term reliability, the earpads and the headband padding are easily replaceable.
Versatility and Portability:
With a low impedance of 25 Ω, the Austrian Audio Hi-X55 is easy to drive, whether you are plugged into a high-end audio interface or a standard laptop. The foldable hinge design allows for compact storage in its included carry bag, while the detachable 3m cable ensures you can easily swap out components if needed.
