Reviews

Headfonics
Despite being designed by a relatively new company, the Hi-X55 is a very mature product that shouldn’t just be confined to the studio. Plenty of regular audiophiles will enjoy this also.
Audio Media International
If you want to hear the finest details of a mix but don’t want to be bored rigid as you do so, the Austrian Audio Hi-X55 are what you need.

From the classy design, innovative technology, and high-end materials, it’s obvious that these Hi-X55 headphones are built to last.
Recording Magazine
The Hi-X55 is an excellent foray into the headphone market by Austrian Au-dio. The comfort and build quality are top-notch, and the sound is tight through-out the spectrum with a very detailed upper midrange.

In terms of signal dynamics, these headphones really make a big splash. Especially the low-frequency transients, which are reproduced with a lot of punch and thrust.
Sound On Sound
The same classy pedigree and thoughtful design that went into Austrian Audio's OC mics is apparent in their first headphones too.
MusicTech
Austrian Audio has created a superb set of headphones in the Hi-X55s. Their sound-for-pound cannot be faulted and, in many respects, especially with regard to the capacious soundstage, they outperform some more costly designs.
KOPFHOERER.DE
In Sachen Signaldynamik machen diese Headphones ordentlich Dampf. Insbesondere tieffrequente Transienten bilden sie druckvoll und mit viel Schub gekonnt ab. Auch die akustische Isolation nach außen und die Dämpfung von Außengeräuschen sind den Entwicklern gelungen.
Miniklangwunder
Aus meiner Sicht ist er einer der besten Kopfhörer für einen Preis von unter 300€ und das sogar, ohne dass auf audiophile Ansprüche verwiesen und ohne, dass er mit Superlativen beworben wird. Ein Studio-Kopfhörer, der gekonnt in die akustische Trickkiste greift und keine Details vermissen lässt…
Kopfbox.de
Als Studiokopfhörer beweist er wahre Monitorqualitäten und ist ein überaus präzises Werkzeug für die Arbeit im Studio oder unterwegs. Als vorwiegend audiophil genutzter Kopfhörer überzeugt er durch einen linearen Frequenzverlauf, der für alle Musikarten gleichermaßen gut geeignet ist.

When every detail matters.

The Hi-X55 is ​​the skilled surgeon of the Austrian Audio headphone line—a mid-forward, closed-back headphone that uncovers every detail in your mix. Our handmade High Excursion Drivers reduce internal resonance and enhance membrane movement to give you a fully honest sonic image.

Since comfort is crucial for critical listening applications, the Hi-X55 is equipped with a pressure-reducing head bow and memory foam earpads that are perfect for strain-free, multi-hour mixing sessions. The Hi-X55 is an essential audio tool for anyone looking to explore and refine their recordings.

Hi-X Technology

The Hi-Xcursion (High Excursion) technology drives the remarkable sound of our Hi-X headphones. Every Austrian Audio Hi-X model features a 44 mm driver and an advanced ring magnet system, delivering superior airflow and the strongest magnetic field in its class.

Paired with a copper-clad aluminum voice coil, the ring magnet reduces membrane weight for faster, more precise impulse response – producing a sound that’s immediate, detailed, and true to the source. The 44 mm design ensures professional performance, enhanced air movement, and eliminates diaphragm wobble. The ultra-stiff membrane effectively dampens resonance, resulting in an ultra-clear, dynamic, and expressive sound that brings every nuance to life.

What Friends Are Saying

After struggling with a particular artist to find the right microphone to really capture the nuance of the voice, a friend had pointed me towards Austrian Audios live vocal mics, the OD505 and the OC707.

Fumez the engineer

Austrian Audio engineers have successfully created products that are of exceptional quality, matching and even exceeding some of the most expensive brands on the market.

I love the OC18's.

The headphones have been a welcome addition, especially for late-night writing /recording sessions when the world is sleeping 😇 I never have to compromise full-on sound and tone!.

Peter Zirbs

I have never seen a mic in the studio that can be used so extensively and deliver such fantastic results in such a short time.

The Hajj

From day one of hearing these mics at the NAMM convention we fell in love with these microphones and headphones! We love our paid or CC8 mics for our drum overheads and our HiX65 headphones in the mixing room! The gear is so solid and well-made!.
