Topping Hane IEMs Launched With 16 Tuning Options
Hane is the latest in-ear monitor (IEM) from Topping's ArpegEar series.
Topping's Hane IEMs are the latest release from the brand's ArpegEar series. Although keenly priced, as all of Topping's offerings tend to be, the Hane has some lovely touches.
Firstly, the 3D-printed resin shell backplate of the Hane is finished with feather-like details, incorporating an effect similar to the traditional 'dian cui' technique. We're told to expect the backplate to display “a gem-like brilliance with beautiful changes in colour and shadow” as the light changes.
The Hane earphones are designed to ensure a secure and comfortable fit, even during extended wear. Meanwhile, Topping boasts that the 10mm DLC dynamic driver enhances high-frequency detail, expands dynamic range, and provides an exceptional transient response, with THD < 0.05%.
Topping states that Hane has a frequency response of 5Hz-35kHz combined with 115dB/Vrms sensitivity @1kHz and 80ohm +/-15% impendence @1kHz.
Hane sports PTC (Precision Tone Control) dip switches. The four independent switches can be flicked up or down using the provided tool similar to a SIM card ejector. The switches offer up to 16 tuning combinations to suit various audio environments. For example, if you need to reduce the ear canal coupling peak, simply activate switches 3 and 4 simultaneously to effectively attenuate the 6kHz region, optimising the overall listening experience.
Finally, alongside the six pairs of ear tips, the Hane in-ear headphones come with a 1.5m soft, tangle-resistant braided cable that features a 0.78mm 2-pin detachable design, making it convenient for users to replace and customise.
The Hane IEMs are available now, priced at £129.
