German audio brand Sennheiser has launched the HD 560S headphones in India. Priced at Rs 18,990, the Sennheiser HD 560S will be available on the company’s site, other e-commerce platforms and leading electronic retail outlets in the country.
Sennheiser claims that the new HD 560S headphones offer natural and detailed reference sound that is complemented by a low-frequency extension. As per the company, the HD 560S’ transducers are specifically tuned for accuracy, offering dependable A/B comparisons of mixes, sources and media formats. Its open-back ear-cups are aimed to give a natural expansion of sound waves, while their angled alignment is meant to recreate the optimal triangular listening position of loudspeakers for a wide, articulate sound-stage — without the need for room treatment.
Offering a frequency response of 6 Hz – 38 kHz, the HD 560S reproduces the entire frequency range which is claimed to help reproduce the complex bass sounds found in modern music. At the same time, a high 110 dB/1V sensitivity and a low THD (<0.05% at 90 dB) offer an expressive dynamic range and clarity, even at a high SPL, claims the company.
Sennheiser claims that the voice coil was specifically developed to provide an exceptional experience regardless of the playback system, while the 120 Ω impedance allows the HD 560S to be used with virtually any audio source. The HD 560S comes equipped with a detachable 3-meter cable, 6.3mm jack and a 3.5mm adapter with a 15cm lead.
