Austrian audio HI-X20

Austrian Audio's Hi-X20 are closed-back professional headphones designed for neutral, precise and pleasant listening, in the studio or on a daily basis.

Its enveloping circumaural design and 44 mm Hi-X transducers deliver faithful reproduction: controlled bass, clear midrange and detailed highs. Robust metal structure (reinforced hinges and headband) and memory foam ear pads for long-lasting comfort.

Universal compatibility with your equipment

Thanks to its 25 Ω impedance and 113 dB SPL/V sensitivity, the Hi-X20 easily adapts to audio interfaces, sound cards, consoles, computers and nomadic players. The detachable 3 m cable, 3.5 mm mini-jack plug and 6.3 mm adapter ensure rapid connection in any situation.

Careful ergonomics and quick folding

The closed circum-aural design enhances isolation and concentration. The headset can be folded for easy transport, while the precise adjustment of the headband guarantees a stable fit over long sessions.

44 mm Hi-X transducers: precision and control

Hi-X drivers deliver fast transients and low distortion, for crisp stereo imaging and reliable mixing decisions. Rendering remains balanced, without auditory fatigue.

Professional reliability and durability

Metal hinges and headband, selected components and detachable cable: the Hi-X20 is designed to withstand intensive use in the studio, on stage or on the move.

Long-lasting comfort

Memory foam ear cushions adapt to the shape of the ear. Low weight and controlled headband pressure mean you can work or listen for longer without discomfort.
