Disclaimer:

I would like to thank SIVGA for providing me the P-II Planar Headphone for review purposes. I am not affiliated with SIVGA beyond this review and these words reflect my true and unaltered opinions about the product.

Package and Accessories:

The SIVGA P-II came in a pretty big cardboard box with some product brandings and an illustration of the Headphone on the top.

The box of the SIVGA P-II came with the following items;

1 piece x SIVGA P-II Open-Back Headphone

1 piece x Detachable Cable with 4.4mm Headphone Plug

1 piece x 4.4 Female to 3.5mm Male Adapter

1 piece x Headphone Carrying Case

1 piece x Cable Carry Bag

The Headphone Carrying Case with zipper mechanism is made of leather and sports the SIVGA branding on the top. The case has a lanyard and zipper mechanism is of very high quality.

The inner surface of the hard carry case has a fabric coating to avoid the P-II from any possible scratches.

The SIVGA P-II comes with a nice looking detachable cable with a braided design.

The cable is made of high purity 4 core 6N purity “Single Crystalline Copper” wire material which has a soft plastic insulation with very low amount of microphonic effect.

The cable has two 2.5mm male connectors, one for the left ear-cup and one for the right ear-cup.

Each of the connectors features a metal housing with left and right marking, while the plugs do have extra ring indicators (red for the right and green for the left channel).

The cable of the P-II sports also a metal Y splitter and chin slider in black color.

The cable features a 4.4mm TRRRS Pentaconn headphone jack with a straight profiled metal housing in black color that sport the SIVGA logo in white color. The headphone plug features also a flexible strain relief in form of a spring that offers extra protection.

The SIVGA P-II comes also with a 4.4mm TRRRS Balanced female to 3.5mm Single Ended Adapter which is made of the same cable material and offers the same high quality look and feel.

The Design, Build Quality, Comfort:

The SIVGA P-II is a full sized Open Back Headphone that features a Planar Magnetic Driver which has a premium look and feel thanks to the use of black walnut wood material.

The build quality of the P-II Planar headphone is of high quality same like the little brother Phoenix that I have had reviewed before and I couldn’t see any imperfections like such like burrs, gaps or cracking parts.

The production of the CNC machined wooden earcups needs according to SIVGA a lot of time and man power because of multiple painting, polishing and drying processes, while the final result is a luxurious and beautiful appearance.

This process makes each P-II to a headphone with a unique looking earcups.

On the top of each earcup is a protective metal mesh in silver color which is under the cloud shaped metal grill in black color. Each metal grill features the SIVGA brand logo and the overall appearance looks pretty nice.

The main parts of the headband system are a combination of stainless steel, aluminum and plastic material. The crown of the headband system is made of stainless steel spring metal in black color and is fixed to headband holders which are made of plastic material.

The headband holders do have the SIVGA logo on both sides and do have Left (L) and Right (R) indictors in white color.
