HD 800: Sennheiser's latest sound sensation
Introducing the new premium headphones from the audio specialist, the HD800 offers an incredibly brilliant sound image and impressive spatiality.
The dynamic stereo headphones with their completely open-back design combines innovative technology with carefully selected materials and the highest quality workmanship. The key components of the HD 800 are a completely new type of
transducer - currently the largest that can be found in dynamic
headphones and the innovative ear cup design. The result is a level of performance, quality and attention to detail that is clearly audible.
Patented transducer
A completely new design principle allows the purest possible sound reproduction in exceptional detail. Measuring 56mm, the transducer is the largest in dynamic headphones. The more transducer surface area is caused to vibrate, the purer the headphone sound becomes at low frequencies. However, transducers with a large surface area have the disadvantage that, at high frequencies, undesired resonances occur at the diaphram, resulting in distortions in sound reproduction.
The difference with the HD800 is the vibrating part of the diaphragm is not a circular surface area but a ring. This ring is able to set the entire air volume over the transducer into motion, generating a full bodied sound. The ring design minimises the distortion, resulting with brilliant trebles, precise bass reproduction and a much clearer sound image. The heaphones offer an outstanding frequency response of 6 to 51,000 Hz, brilliant sound image and impressive spatiality.
Ultimate in sound reproduction and wearing comfort
In the development of the HD800, special attention was also paid to the design of the ear cups. These are designed in such a way that the sound waves are directed to the ear at a slight angle. This produces an impressively natural listening experience. " Today, most music is made to be reproduced by two loudspeakers, which form an equal-sided triangle together with the listener. This results in a sound field close to the ears that is at a slight angle to the head. When the sound field reaches the ears, the sound is reflected into the ear canal and to the ear drum by the structures of the external ear with slight time differences. It is precisely these differences that are a key factor in spatial hearing and in localisation of the sound event outside the head. With it's large, inclined tranducers, the HD800 generates a sound field that corresponds to the listening experience with loudspeakers, but far exceeds loudspeakers in the purity of the sound reproduction.
The outstanding sound quality is accompanied by excellent wearing comfort. To guarantee optimum fit on the head, the ear cups are suspended on one side only. High quality plastic material developed for the aviation and aerospace industries ensure maximum stability. With their circumaural design, the ear cups fit precisely round the ears without pressure and are still comfortable to wear even after hours of music enjoyment.
