Негизги өзгөчөлүктөрү

• A NEW DROP + SENNHEISER FLAGSHIP: The HD 8XX is based on the HD 800S; a flagship audiophile headphone produced by our partners at Sennheiser. Like the HD 800S, the HD 8XX is handcrafted in Germany at Sennheiser’s HQ factory.
• RING-RADIATOR DRIVERS: Unlike the traditional dynamic driver, the ring-radiator driver uses a ring diaphragm attached at its inner and outer surfaces. This dramatically increases stability, radiates sound uniformly, and eliminates cone breakup.
• NEW TUNING WITH AN EXCLUSIVE COLORWAY: With a new resonator system and driver materials, The HD 8XX has a balanced upper midrange and sub-bass that extends to 10hz. Completing the package, the HD 8XX is finished with signature Drop midnight blue accents.
• CLASS LEADING TUNING: Based on community requests, we worked with Sennheiser to tune the housing resonance to add low end extension, while we adjusted the driver damping to create midrange balance and reveal treble detail.
• SENNHEISER: AN INTERNATIONAL AUDIO LEADER: For 75 years, Sennheiser has been synonymous with exceptional sonic performance. Led by a team of German-based audio innovators, the brand has earned a lofty global reputation among audiophiles, musicians, and sound engineers alike.
