Know more about the H8/H8i, a $800 luxury headphone

The B&O Beoplay H8i are luxury headphones with an excellent battery life and good audio reproduction. … The B&O Beoplay H8i are a set of premium headphones that look and feel the part. It starts from the packaging of the product that includes a USB Type-C cable for charging, a 3.5mm cable for a wired connection, an airline adaptor, and, a carrying case that is nice and soft. Bang & Olufsen nails the look and feel of the H8i with its mix of leather, canvas and metal. The headphones feel substantial and special. Those sick of the plastic build of most headphones will appreciate the Materials and attention to detail. The Beoplay H8i wireless headphones are designed to sit on top of your ears so it’s essential for them to be lightweight, which they are at 215 grams. The very soft cushioning on the ear-cups that is made from genuine leather also makes them comfortable for extended use. (see more headphone reviews at Beginner Guitar HQ)

We highly recommend using this driver with our genuine wood headphone kit model B5 and B9 to 100% reproduce Meze 99 classic sound. 

 

 

Note: the dynamic drivers have been paired to ensure sound and quality fully balanced between right and left channels. Therefore we don’t offer single unit.  

Soldering: overheated (>250 degree C) soldering iron or overtime soldering (>2s) may permanently damage the driver. Please managed down both in your DIY. 

• Installation: the driver has Sintered NdFeB Magnetic inside with extremely strong attraction power. Damage may caused by attracting anything hitting the fragile diaphragm. 
• Others: applying high-voltage, storing in high temperature/humidity environment… all may cause unrecoverable damage.
