| Stylish headphones for people on the move |
The new "Style" range from Sennheiser elegant headphones in a metal look for portable music players and multimedia devices. The new Style range includes earphones with a newly developed securing mechanism (MX 90 VC Style), earbow headphones (OMX 90 VC Style) and "flex" headphones (LX 90 Style). The earphones and flex headphones feature such an innovative and unusual design that they are already candidates for new patents. Sennheiser has been granted around 80 patents in the past three years alone.
They should provide optimum sound and look stylish and elegant - that´s what people want today from portable music and multimedia devices, which have long since become an essential part of modern life. Sennheiser´s new "Style" range of headphones combines sound quality and elegance with high-quality materials, gold-plated plugs and an intelligent storage system.
The stereo earphones MX 90 VC Style feature a completely new securing system. A small "stopper" holds the earphones securely to the outer ear, while rubber pads in three different sizes ensure a comfortable and ergonomic fit. The earpiece itself can also be optimally adapted to the ear canal with its choice of three ear adapters (S, M, L). The sound image is detailed, clear and transparent. A comfortable feature is the volume control integrated into the cable - the user doesn´t need to reach for the player in order to adjust the volume.
 No sooner they were launched, the ergonomically optimized earbow headphones OMX 90 VC Style already won trophies. In March, they were presented with the coveted iF Design Award. Their earbows have individual height adjustment, and ear adapters in three sizes provide a comfortable fit in the ear canal. In this model too, the cable has an integrated volume control.
Flexible and clever - the LX 90 Style. In this model, Sennheiser has replaced the conventional headband with a flexible, thin plastic tube with a metal core. This unusual patent-pending design promises a perfect fit. These headphones also come with ear adapters. A specially tuned damping system generates a very fine, accurately detailed sound image.
The "Style" headphones are available in stores from May.
