The HIFIMAN SHANGRI-LA Headphone Stand is a meticulously designed accessory crafted to complement and protect high-end headphones, particularly those from the HIFIMAN SHANGRI-LA and SHANGRI-LA jr series, as well as other compatible HIFIMAN models. This owner's guide provides a comprehensive overview of the stand's features, specifications, and warranty information, reflecting HIFIMAN's commitment to quality and user satisfaction.
Function Description:
The primary function of the SHANGRI-LA Headphone Stand is to provide a secure, aesthetically pleasing, and protective resting place for headphones when not in use. It is designed to maintain the shape and integrity of the headphone's headband and earcups, preventing deformation or damage that can occur from improper storage. The stand's elegant design also serves to showcase the headphones, making them a prominent part of any audio setup or display.
Important Technical Specifications:
- Dimensions: The stand measures 80mm in width, 67mm in depth (at the base), and 85mm in height. These dimensions are carefully chosen to ensure stability and compatibility with a wide range of headphones, while maintaining a compact footprint.
- Net Weight: The stand weighs 335g, indicating a substantial and stable construction that prevents accidental tipping.
- Material: It is constructed from aluminum alloy, a material selected for its exceptional strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion. This choice of material ensures the stand's longevity and ability to withstand years of continuous use without degradation.
- Top Cover Material: The top surface of the stand, where the headphone rests, is covered with a high-quality black velvet fabric. This soft material is crucial for protecting the headphone's headband from scratches and abrasions, preserving its pristine condition.
- Base Design: The bottom of the stand features soft rubber foot pads. These pads are integral to the stand's stability, preventing it from slipping or sliding on various surfaces and protecting the surface itself from scratches.
- Color Options: The SHANGRI-LA Headphone Stand is available in two distinct color options: Classic Black and Stylish Silver. These choices allow users to select a stand that best matches their headphones or personal aesthetic preferences.
Usage Features:
- Ergonomic Curvature: The stand's curvature is precisely matched to the design of HIFIMAN headphones, ensuring a perfect fit that supports the headband without putting undue stress on any part of the headphone. This ergonomic design helps maintain the headphone's original shape over time.
- Sleek and Attractive Lines: Beyond its functional aspects, the stand boasts sleek and attractive lines, contributing to its overall aesthetic appeal. It is designed to be a piece of art in itself, enhancing the visual presentation of the headphones.
- Dedicated Compatibility: While primarily designed for the SHANGRI-LA and SHANGRI-LA jr models, the stand is also compatible with other HIFIMAN headphones. Users are advised to contact HIFIMAN customer service for specific compatibility inquiries, ensuring optimal fit and support.
- Easy Placement and Removal: The open design of the stand allows for effortless placement and removal of headphones, making it convenient for daily use.
Maintenance Features:
- Durable Construction: The aluminum alloy construction provides inherent resistance to wear and tear, minimizing the need for extensive maintenance. The material is robust and designed for long-term use.
- Scratch Protection: The velvet fabric top cover is specifically chosen to protect headphones from scratches. This feature helps maintain the cosmetic condition of valuable audio equipment.
- Stable Base: The soft rubber foot pads not only prevent slipping but also contribute to the stand's stability, reducing the risk of accidental damage to the headphones or the stand itself from falls.
- Easy to Clean: The smooth surfaces of the aluminum alloy can be easily wiped clean with a soft cloth. The velvet fabric can be gently brushed to remove dust, ensuring the stand remains presentable.
