Sennheiser has released the new HD range of headphones, five new models optimized for MP3 players and other portable equipment, but also suitable for home hi-fi use.
Each set has its own, individual eye catching design.
“Many headphones are either optimised for use with portable players or are designed to be used with home hi-fi systems,” says Maurice Quarre, product Manager Headphones at Sennheiser. “But many music lovers want headphones that can do both, and ones that can always be relied on to offer superb sound, no matter which audio source they are connected to.
The top of the range HD 448 offers a balanced stereo image with precise detail, while the HD 438 has similar sound characteristics. The HD 428, HD 418 and HD 408 models are focussed more on the lower frequencies and offer a powerful bass response.
Local prices are $119.95 (HD418), $159.95 (HD428), $179.95 (HD438) and $199.95 (HD448).
There are a few changes to this issue of Tone. We’ve said farewell to our fine cover girl in favour of some lads in white (it’s not a statement of preference, but the World Cup only comes around once every four years). In order to stimulate maximum creativity, our designer hasn’t slept since the last issue went to print, resulting in some crazy new fonts and unbelievably sleek breakout boxes possessing a level of sophistication not previously imagined. Like Saruman forging his army of fighting Uruk-Hai, we’ve dug new writers from the earth’s very gut, who now swarm across the world’s gadgets, crafting their infernal reviews. Though we’ve changed a little on the outside, we’re still the Tone you know and love on the inside. As always, we’re committed to providing the latest technology news and the best, unbiased, independent reviews of hot new products – and that’s never going to change. Enjoy.
