Six years after thrilling audiophiles with the much-lauded HD 800 headphones, German audio specialist Sennheiser aims to raise the bar yet again with its new and improved model: the HD 800 S.
Boasting the self-same transducer technology that allowed its predecessor to deliver pristine sound quality, the HD 800 S distinguishes itself even further by providing an even greater level of mid and bass reproduction capabilities – a feat that’s sure to delight and charm fans of the brand and the uninitiated alike.
Lovingly handcrafted at Sennheiser’s headquarters in Wedemark, Germany, the new design retains a high benchmark of product quality, having been manufactured utilizing only the most luxurious of materials: the transducer is housed within a special stainless steel gauze, the headbands consist of several layers of attenuating plastic and stainless steel, and the connector contacts are gold-plated to ensure optimum connection.
The pièce de résistance lies in the earcup design, which uses the same high-quality attenuating plastic favoured by the aviation engineering industry for its lightweight durability. A matte black finish completes the look of the HD 800 S, giving it a fittingly futuristic yet luxurious feel.
In the HD 800 S, Sennheiser has brought all its expertise to bear, giving audiophiles a taste of true technical sound perfection while retaining the gold standard of luxury that has become synonymous with all Sennheiser products.
