Is this setup considered “hifi” or do I need to sell my other kidney to achieve “hifi” status?

    The amp has a hi res sticker on it, but the headphones and cable don’t. So the amp is hifi but the headphones and cable is not. A few wireless headphones have a hi res logo on them, so they do exist.

      Easiest remedy for this is to add stickers to the other components.

      Even my HD600’s have a “Hi-Res Audio” sticker on the box so i would be surprised if those Focal’s didn’t

        It’s down to whether the OEM decided to pay the Japan Audio Society to use the mark or not. Focal did not.

        Just put the sticker on your ears instead.
