Configuració
- Connexió del cable: Locate the two 3.5mm connectors on the detachable cable. Insert one connector into the port on the bottom of each earcup until it clicks securely into place. Ensure both sides are connected firmly.

- Connexió a una font d'àudio: Connect the other end of the cable (with the single 3.5mm jack) to your audio source. If your audio source requires a larger 6.35mm (1/4 inch) connection, attach the included 6.35mm adapter to the 3.5mm jack on the cable.
Nota: The HE400SE headphones are highly sensitive and can be driven by low-voltage sources like portable hi-res audio players. However, for optimal performance and to fully appreciate the planar magnetic drivers, a dedicated headphone amplifier or DAC/Amp is recommended. Connecting directly to a smartphone or laptop without sufficient power may result in lower volume and reduced sound quality.
- Ajust per a la comoditat: Place the headphones on your head. Adjust the headband by sliding the earcups up or down until they rest comfortably over your ears and the headband sits securely on your head. The earcups feature a vertical swivel for a better fit.

Instruccions de funcionament
Once connected and adjusted, your HIFIMAN HE400SE headphones are ready for use. These are open-back headphones, meaning they allow some sound to escape and enter, providing a wider soundstage and a more natural listening experience. This design is ideal for quiet environments where immersive audio is desired, but it offers less noise isolation than closed-back headphones.
Característiques principals:
- Controladors magnètics planars: Unlike dynamic headphones, planar headphones feature conductive layers covering nearly the entire diaphragm, resulting in significantly lower distortion and superior detail.
- Acoustically Invisible Stealth Magnets: The unique shape of these magnets allows sound waves to pass through without interference, reducing wave diffraction turbulence and yielding pure, accurate sound.
- Alta sensibilitat: Designed to be easily driven by a variety of sources, including portable devices, though an amplifier enhances performance.
- Disseny còmode: The adjustable lightweight headband and plush ear cushions ensure comfort during extended listening sessions.

Manteniment
- Neteja: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the earcups and headband. For ear cushions, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth if necessary, and allow to air dry completely before use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Cura del cable: Handle the detachable cable with care. Avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling. When not in use, coil the cable loosely.
- Emmagatzematge: Store your headphones in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. The original packaging can serve as a good storage solution.
