CES 2009

If you want to take your personal listening experience to the next level, Sennheiser has a set of headphones they’d like you to try on. The HD 800 headphones combine innovative transducer technology with groundbreaking design for an unmatched experience.

Sennheiser designed these meticulously crafted headphones with the largest transducer in its class. Each pair incorporates a 56-millimeter transducer and ring-designed diaphragm to minimize distortion and increase sound clarity. Sennheiser also created these headphones to simulate the soundfield you hear from a larger speaker system. It designed the headphones to angle the sound wave to your ear at a 45-degree angle, which is similar to the angle that most loudspeaker pairs provide. With the HD 800, Sennheiser clearly set out to create a home-theater-like experience in the comfort of your own head.
