On Show at IFA 2001 Two Powerful Mini-Headphones from Sennheiser
08.08.2001
At IFA 2001, Sennheiser is presenting two new powerful mini-headphones, the PX 30 and the PX 40, that are specially designed for the target group of teenagers and twenty-year-olds. “Our aim is to make young people more aware of quality in audio equipment”, says Rolf Meyer, Sennheiser’s President of Marketing and Sales, explaining the company’s focus on this target group. The high-quality PX models make it possible to improve the sound of portable players at an affordable price.

Those who like to listen to music from CD or MP3 players when they are on the move or doing sports are often disappointed with the sound from the standard headphones that come with this equipment. Now, the new mini-headphones from Sennheiser can open up completely new sound dimensions. The clear, powerful sound with its crisp bass is ideal for rock and pop music.

At an incredibly affordable price, these Sennheiser headphones get the maximum sound possible from compact players. Both headphones offer high wearing comfort and maximum efficiency. The PX 40 additionally features a convenient volume control integrated into the cable. Both headphones have a two-year warranty and are available in the shops from this autumn.
