Whether on the move, at work or at home, those passionate about music will always desire to appreciate music without compromise. Historically the very best headphones are open back in design, noisy to those around you, without impeding the surrounding hubbub, music is simply impossible to enjoy... until now.
With a 70-year history of setting performance standards, Sennheiser has redrawn the map with the creation of the HD 820. These circumaural dynamic stereo headphones redefine what is possible from a closed back headphone and set a new benchmark for this type of design.
The HD 820 offers an incredibly realistic and natural sound field. This has been achieved through innovation: Over each of the ring radiator transducers are unique glass covers. As well as revealing the acoustics within, these visually striking features were developed wholly in service to the sound. The concave glass serves to reflect sound from the rear of the transducer to an absorber, which results in minimal resonance.
As is typical for a Sennheiser product, the HD 820 stands apart through the extraordinary attention that is given to detail; from the ear pads, hand-crafted from high quality non-allergic synthetic leather, and microfiber cushions which insulate the listener from ambient noise, to the silver cladded OFC cables and gold-plated plugs, to the robust metal headband with an inner damping element – they offer an unparalleled listening experience.
A specially tuned symmetrical, impedance matching cable with low capacitance is included with the HD 820 to guarantee seamless performance.
These truely special headphones should be on any shortlist for no-compromise headphones, no matter where you intend to use them.
