Sennheiser Launches 3 New HD Headphones


Today, Sennheiser announced the launch of three new additions to its range of audiophile HD series of headphones and these models will replace some of the predecessors. The three open, dynamic high-end headphones are equipped with Sennheiser's specially developed E.A.R. (Ergonomic Acoustic Refinement) technology. Acoustic baffles inclined at a slight angle guide the audio signal directly to the ears giving the listener better sound.

All three headphones look really nice and I can’t wait to test them out. Here’s a little introduction:

HD 598: This one has a cream-coloured surface, a dark wood grain effect and glossy metallic trim, rounded off with a silhouette. Special diaphragm geometry minimizes intermodulation distortion during sound reproduction, while a highly constant, compressed cellulose fleece reduces total harmonic distortion to below 0.1 percent. The frequency response is 12 to 38,500 Hertz. These headphones cost Rs. 12,990.

These headphones also have a high-quality leatherette headband and velour ear pads to provide more comfort for longer listening sessions. The HD 558 has a frequency response of 15 to 28,000 Hertz and will cost Rs 8,990
