HIFIMAN Svanar Wireless In-Ear Monitors: A Video Review.

This is a stylish, high-end True Wireless In-Ear Monitor System, with a built-in R2R DAC, and active noise cancelation.

It is priced at $499, which targets this product at a very specific user.

People who would look at this are entrenched in IEMs (In-ear Monitors), and they also most likely have some high-res DAPs (Digital Audio Players). And they value the highest quality possible from their portable devices.

The new HIFIMAN Svanar Wireless IEMs have some cool tech implemented including an R2R Himalaya Ladder DAC section, a Topology driver that features special Nanoparticle coatings on the driver diaphragm, and a custom headphone amplifier module. Among the Bluetooth codecs supported HIFIMAN has thoughtfully included LDAC for higher bitrate transmission. The advanced Active Noise Cancellation is claimed to reduce outside noise by up to 35 dB.
