Angeboten wird „Hifiman HE1000 Stealth V4“ von HiFi Man als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Kopfhörer“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 5599423428 endet am 10.09.2026 um 15:59 Uhr.
This is a buyer’s market at this price point: with recent comparable EUR listings centered at €448 and the upper quartile at €646, an ask of €800 lands above the typical range and reads ambitious rather than fair. It is not outrageous for the model, but it is clearly priced past the level where I’d expect a quick, easy sale.
The upside is that this is still a very desirable planar flagship: the HE1000 Stealth is known for its spacious stage, refined detail, and a more effortless, less peaky presentation than many brighter high-end cans. If the pads are healthy, the headband is sound, and it includes the original box and cables, it remains a strong listen—but at €800, I’d want either a more complete package or room to negotiate.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Hifiman traces its origins to 2005, when Dr. Fang Bian, a chemist with a lifelong passion for audio electronics, founded Head-Direct in the United States as an online retailer and headphone developer. By 2007, he rebranded to Hifiman, relocating manufacturing and R&D to Tianjin, China, while maintaining sales operations in the US and beyond. This fusion of American entrepreneurial drive and Chinese production expertise propelled the brand from modest in-ear monitors to global prominence.
The company specializes in high-end headphones, particularly planar-magnetic and electrostatic models renowned for their detail and soundstage, alongside complementary portable digital audio players, headphone amplifiers, and cables. Early milestones like the 2009 HM-801—the first pocket-sized high-resolution player—and the HE-5 planar headphones established its innovative edge, with co-founder Binwu He pioneering planar technology integration.
Hifiman commands a elite position in the audiophile market as a high-end leader, delivering reference-grade performance that rivals legacy brands. Its products earn consistent acclaim for transparency and musicality, appealing to discerning buyers seeking uncompromising planar transduction without vintage pretensions or mid-tier compromises.
