HiFiMAN ANANDA NANO | Planar Magnetic Open-Back Headphones

Fabulous Headphones!

These are fabulous headphones; the level of clarity and resolving ability are on another level completely from anything I've heard before. Unlike some reviewers, I have not found them to be too bright. I would definitely replace the included cable, however. I originally ordered a different headphone that didn't work as well with my system, and Bloom arranged the exchange smoothly and efficiently. Both the Nano and Bloom are highly recommended!

Exactly What I Was Looking For

I spent a lot of time researching before buying the Ananda Nano, and they ended up being exactly what I was looking for. I was not looking for huge, boomy bass. I wanted clarity, detail, imaging, and space. I use headphones for music, but also for gaming, so positional audio matters to me. I want to hear where things are, not just that something made a noise. The Ananda Nano really impressed me right away. They sound open, clean, fast, and detailed. The imaging is excellent, and there is a sense of space that makes music and gaming just better. The bass is not overpowering, which is a good thing for me. It is clean and controlled. If you want a bass-heavy headphone, this probably is not it. If you want detail, separation, and clarity, these are fantastic. I run them from a FiiO K7 desktop DAC/amp, and they have been excellent for both music and gaming. I also bought from Bloom Audio because I wanted to buy from a real audio retailer I trusted, not just chase the lowest price somewhere random. Ultimately, the Ananda Nano gave me the clarity, detail, space, and imaging I was hoping for. I am very happy with them.

My First Planar Magnetic Cans.

The Ananda Nano’s have a wide and deep soundstage. The mid range is neutral with a hint of warmth and amazing detail. The bass is textured with excellent punch without being bass dominant. The treble is open and airy. What a great price for such incredible sound and excellent consistent service and guidance from Bloom Auido.
