Check out HIFIMAN’s newest headphones, the Arya Organic and Ananda Nano, now available for purchase.
HIFIMAN, a leading manufacturer of high-end audio products, today announced two new headphones: the Arya Organic and the Ananda Nano. Both are the third iterations of popular HIFIMAN planar magnetic headphones, promising improved detail and frequency response.
Arya Organic
The Arya Organic features a new wood earcup design built to produce a richer, more detailed sound. It also features HIFIMAN’s Stealth Magnet technology, designed to reduce wave diffraction turbulence and improve the accuracy of the sonic output.
The original Arya was praised for its wide soundstage and neutral response, and the Arya Stealth Magnet was further lauded for its improved detail and overall frequency response. The Arya Organic is expected to continue this trend, offering audiophiles and music lovers a headphone that delivers a truly immersive listening experience.
“Fans of the Arya often ask for a next-gen model that with an even ‘fuller sound signature,’ which translates to greater detail and overall frequency response,” said Dr. Fang Bian, President, and CEO, HIFIMAN Electronics. “Arya Organic is our response, with a soundstage and sonic output that will satisfy the most demanding audiophiles and music lovers.”

Ananda Nano
ANANDA NANO (SRP: $599) represents a generational leap forward for the popular ANANDA headphone. The ANANDA NANO now features the company’s Nanometer Thickness Diaphragm, which is based on the company’s reference SUSVARA open-back headphones. This diaphragm is said to result in ultra-low distortion, lightning-fast transient response, and a demonstrable improvement in dynamics and overall details compared to the original, highly acclaimed model.
“The ANANDA has been one of our most popular headphones since we introduced it in 2018,” said Dr. Fang Bian, Founder and CEO, HIFIMAN. “But with the development of the Nanometer Thickness Diaphragm, we saw a clear path to improving on its performance while maintaining the wide soundstage and pleasing musicality that made the original model an audiophile favorite.”
In addition, like the Arya, the Stealth Magnets originally designed for the SUSVARA are part of the ANANDA NANO. This design is recognized for enabling soundwaves to pass through the magnets without causing interference. The advanced magnet design is acoustically transparent, dramatically reducing turbulence that degrades the integrity of the sound waves. The reduced distortion yields pure sonic output that is accurate and full range.
Here are some of the key features of the ANANDA NANO:
- Nanometer Thickness Diaphragm: This diaphragm results in ultra-low distortion, lightning-fast transient response, and a demonstrable improvement in dynamics and overall details.
- Stealth Magnet: This design enables soundwaves to pass through the magnets without causing interference, resulting in a pure sonic output that is accurate and full range.
- Hybrid Headband Design: This design disperses weight evenly along the strap, for unmatched comfort over extended listening sessions.
- Metal Earcup Holder: This enhances durability for years of listening pleasure.
- 3.5mm Input: This provides enhanced connectivity and compatibility with a wide range of aftermarket cables.
ANANDA NANO weighs 14.8 oz. Frequency response is 5Hz – 55kHz, sensitivity is rated at 94dB, and impedance is 14 ohms.
The Arya Organic and Ananda Nano are available now for $1,299 and $599, respectively.
