Planar headphones benefit from break-in to achieve optimum 

performance. Usually this takes up to 150 hours however there is 

nothing special you need to do other than enjoy your headphones.

Wipe the surfaces (ear pads, cups) with a microfiber cloth and store 

the headphone in a dry, cool and safe place (away from dust, heat, 

humidity, sunlight, younger kids and pets if possible). For the 

headband, wipe it periodically to remove any dust. 

Do not expose the headphone to excessive heat or cold. 

Do not use any headphone while driving or operating machinery. 

Do not use volatile substances alcohol, acetone, gasoline or dish 

detergent to clean the headphone. 

Care and Maintenance

Please allow for a period of “burn in” where you allow playback of audio 

for a period of 150 hours to allow the headphones to reach their fullest 

audio potential.

The headphone connectors utilize a new 3.5mm connector (our prior 

models use 2.5mm). They slot in an identical fashion to the standard 

3.5mm sockets as found on a multitude of audio devices.

The supplied cable and adapter are user changeable and replaceable.  

Please listen to the HE6se at moderate listening levels so that you can 

continue to enjoy their audio quality for years to come.

The drivers do not require user maintenance, do not touch them.  

Please contact HIFIMAN if your drivers have a problem.
