Sennheiser´s Launches HD 380 pro – Headphones for Audio Professionals
Sennheiser HD 380 pro headphones are now available. With their wide frequency response, high sound pressure level delivery and excellent passive attenuation of external noise, these collapsible professional headphones are the ideal tool for audio professionals – even in noisy environments.
HD 380 pro headphones were developed to deliver excellent sound without interference from external noise, making them ideal for audio professionals such as sound engineers, producers and musicians.
“Professional headphones have to fulfill a wide range of requirements,” said Ivan Kuan, Product Manager at Sennheiser.
“They have to provide excellent but accurate sound, effectively attenuating external noise and yet still remain comfortable even after hours of monitoring work.”
To ensure that they offer detailed, linear sound reproduction, the dynamic HD 380 pro headphones have a very wide frequency response of 8 – 27,000 Hz.
In addition, Sennheiser’s specially developed ‘Eargonomic Acoustic Refinement’ (E.A.R.) technology makes sure that the sound is optimally channelled. Acoustic baffles inclined at a slight angle guide the audio signal directly to the ears.
A further highlight of these professional headphones is their ability to deliver high sound pressure levels. Audio signals are reproduced at up to 110 dB, thus guaranteeing precise monitoring even in noisy surroundings. The closed-back design of the HD 380 pro also ensures that external noise is attenuated by up to 32 dB.
Comfortable and Convenient 
In constant use for many hours, professional headphones need to be as comfortable as possible.
The HD 380 pro offers exceptional wearing comfort. Weighing just 220 grams and with soft padding on the ear cups and headband, the headphones remain comfortable to wear even after lengthy monitoring sessions.
The space-saving collapsible design of the HD 380 pro also makes them very easy to transport. After use, the headphones can simply be folded away and conveniently stored in the carrying case provided.
The headphones come with a one-sided detachable coiled cable with a 3.5 mm jack plug and a 6.3 mm screw-on adapter. The ear pads and cables are easy to replace, ensuring that these sturdy monitoring headphones continue to provide perfect monitoring sound even after years of use.
Sennheiser HD 380 pro headphones are available now and cost £139.99.
