HD 700 Reference Class Wired Headphones
---------------------------------------
In Sennheiser’s constant quest for perfect audio reproduction,
the HD 700s incorporate a truly unique and innovative special
transducer technology resulting in a remarkable and outstanding
soundstage. This is possible because the patented transducer has
a ventilated magnet with holes on its rear. Air can escape
through these holes avoiding and minimising any air turbulence
within the system. Adding the ventilated magnet system to the
open ear cup design, together with the use of angled acoustic
baffles, ensures the HD 700 produces an exciting combination of
transparent, warm and balanced sound.
Matching their reference-grade performance, the HD 700s have a
stunning ‘industrial design’ complemented by the use of aerospace
materials. The transducers of the HD 700 are also totally exposed
taking the term ‘open headphone’ to a new level. Furthermore you
will also see an innovative and highly aesthetic dual-material
yoke or crosspiece attached to the headband –where the front of
the yoke is made of zinc for enhanced stability. For the perfect
connection to your amplifier the HD 700 utilise a detachable and
symmetrical, four-wire, silver-plated, oxygen-free copper (OFC)
cable.

Despite their large appearance, the silicone-coated headband and
‘around-the-ear’ ear cups (padded with soft velour) ensure your
head and ears are cushioned in comfort. The HD 700s are
incredibly lightweight owing to the use of aerospace materials
within the construction.
