What does "ships within 24/48 hours" mean?

In a nutshell, ships within 24/48 hours basically means that your product will be shipped out or dispatched from our warehouse within 24/48 hours after placing the order. It also indicates that the products are readily available at our warehouse and once we receive your order, we dispatch it out at the earliest either on the same day or the next working day depending on when you’ve placed your order.


What it does not mean:

A lot of our customers assume that it means their order will get delivered to them within 24/48 hours, but that’s not what it means. For an order to reach you, it can take anywhere up to 3-4 business days, depending on which part of India you are placing an order from.

A TRUE FLAGSHIP HEADPHONE TO GET.

There are many flagship headphones right now in the market, but HE1000SE stands out as it is lightweight, sturdy, with a grandeur sound, all packed in one.

Mind you, these headphone require some burn in for the drivers to get seasond. Once it does, then these headphones are next only to HiFi speaker systems.

Won't go into technicalities as you may have read many professional reviews, but as owner of these headphones all I can say is it makes all kinds of music sound more musical, grand & quickly sucks you in into the whole listening experience.I have heared HD800, Utopia, stellia, LCD 5, EMPYREAN & D8000 Pro, they are all good having some strong points. But where HE1000SE sets itself apart is at being a true allrounder. It sounds authentic but at the same time also majestic. It is hard to explain because it is truly an experince. The gigantic sound stage, strong micro details & superlative bass, when all these come together it sounds magical.

This has been a great buy & Headphonezone has delivered it very well. Excellent experience overall, please try and hear it once. Music will never sound the same again.
