The packaging and unboxing is quite nice and gives you the impression that you bought a more expensive product. Even the eardbuds are made of metal (Zircon to be more exact), not cheap plastic. They also come with a small carrying pouch. The presentation of these headphones on the manufacturer’s website is quite impressive and in Audiophile world you would pay big bucks for a product like that. Let’s go through some interesting features the Xiamon MI Pro HD have.
There are more interesting and impressive features these headphones have and you can find more on their website. After reading this, I can’t wait hearing these headphones and “see” what they can do. Listening Impressions and TestsThe tests were performed with Aune B1 & Chord Mojo, Master 9 + Analog Dac. The Chieftains – Talk About Suffering The voice was clean and quite extended. All the instruments were detailed, sparkly and present in the scene. The harp was tickling my ears and the drums showed some very good punch, control and details in the bass section. Charles Aznavour – La boheme The piano from the beginning was crisp and showed some very clear, sparkly notes. Charles’ voice was pleasant, textured, detailed but presented some sibilance. The guitar is very detailed and a pleasure to listen to. It’s sparkly, clean and tactile. The drum is swift, punchy and shows a deep and controlled bass. The guitars are sparkly, detailed and show fast transients. This song was a tactile and fun experience. SummaryBass The bass is fast, has good control, detail and punch, but it lacks a little depth / weight. Overall at this price, I shouldn’t be complaining any way, as the bass is quite detailed and accurate. Midrange The midrange is overall very detailed, but I feel like it should use a little more presence as it gave me the impression that the lower midrange is a pushed back a little, while the upper midrange and treble are more present in the scene. Treble The treble is quite detailed and sparkly, but it shows sibilance. Transients These headphones are fast, showing fast decay and strong attack in the transient department, leading to a tactile sound signature. Soundstage The soundstage is quite decent for closed in ear headphones, but I think it could use a little more width/depth. Details Yes, this is a very impressive department for this headphones, as all the frequencies seem to have good details, from bass to treble. ConclusionsI would say that overall the Xiaomi Mi Pro HD are quite impressive for the price. They have a fast/tactile sound signature that also presents a lot of details to the listeners. However, they can get a little tiresome after a while because of the sharp treble they have. If they didn’t have this issue on this treble, these headphones would have beaten lots of more expensive audiophile headphones. |
