Overview

Foldable, closed-back headphones featuring natural surround sound.

The Ultrasone HFI-580 are foldable, closed-back headphones with a very exclusive design and extraordinary sound, offering the highest standard of technologies: S-Logic Natural Surround Sound Plus, MU Metal shielding (ULE-technology), and safer hearing.

Character
The HFI-580 headphones show its very exclusive design and improved sound quality in a black-pearl colored outfit. These headphones offer tight powerful bass and precise, detailed instrument placement with an impressive power spectrum. The HFI-580 is made for high-power input with very efficient 50mm heavy-duty drivers and a persuasive sound intensity. These headphones are ideal for bass players and drummers.

ULE-technology
To understand what ULE-technology does, you need to know that most headphone drivers produce low-frequency magnetic fields as they convert an electric signal into an acoustical signal that you hear as music. In response, Ultrasone developed a special MU Metal shielding (ULE-technology) to reduce the radiation by up to 98% compared to current headphones. The ULE-technology has stood the test of international review and is recommended by technical surveillance organizations. Ultrasone originally developed the ULE-technology for professionals as they spend half of their lives in headphones. But due to grand requests the, ULE-technology has now been integrated in other Ultrasone headphone lines.

S-Logic Natural Surround Sound
Through the S-Logic Natural Surround Sound the usual headphone sound will be moved out of the head into the room around you. The sound is no longer locked in, but appears broad and detached. Directions and distances can be heard and perceived--it's just like being in a live concert. For this technology, additional equipment is not required. Take a pair of Ultrasone headphones plus your sound device and you will be ready for the 3-dimensional sound enjoyment.

S-Logic Plus
S-Logic Plus is the enhanced version of the S-Logic System. The specific acoustically designed earcups of the HFI models and their stereo tonal fine-tuning of the acoustic reinforcing devices present sophisticated sound and technology. Due to an additional damping, drivers and the bufferboard complement one another with the new spatial-sounding unit. The final result is a most neutral sound impression including optimized distance perception of voices and instruments.

Safer hearing
S-Logic does not only create a Natural Surround Sound. S-Logic allows, at the same time, a reduction of sound pressure levels by up to 40% (3-4 dB) for the same loudness sensation. This may reduce the risk of hearing damage while ensuring hours of fatigue-free listening. However, Ultrasone generally advises not to listen to music at high volumes to prevent hearing damage.
