White Sennheiser Streetwear Headphones

For use with the new portable players, audio specialist Sennheiser is offering a white edition of three of its most popular Streetwear headphones.  The PX 100 White and PX 200 White mini headphones and MX 500 White earphones have the same excellent acoustic qualities as their award-winning black counterparts, but come in brilliant white with light grey design elements.

The PX 100 White is an open design with a balanced natural sound, while the PX 200 White features powerful bass reproduction and is a closed-back design that reduces noise.  Both models are foldable, making them ideal for use on the move: simply fold the earpieces flat to save space in a suitcase, or fold the headphones up completely and stow them away in their convenient transport case.

For more than three years, the MX 500 earphones have been among the most popular portable models worldwide.  The new white edition offers excellent sound reproduction and sturdy design.  The MX 500 White has a convenient volume control fitted into the earphone cable and comes complete with a carrying case with cord winder. "Many independent tests have proven that these top-quality headphones substantially improve the sound of mobile players," comments Katrin Huss, Sennheiser Industry Team Manager for the Consumer Sector.

A headphone upgrade is in fact the biggest improvement anyone can make to a portable, as most players are supplied with relatively mediocre earphones, which cannot do justice to the actual quality of the player.  "Switching to high-quality headphones is a true revelation for the user," explains Katrin Huss. "Many of them have no idea just how good their player actually is."

As one of the world's leading manufacturers of microphones, headphones and wireless transmission systems, the Sennheiser Group with its headquarters in Wedemark near Hanover, Germany, had total sales of over €237 million in 2003.  The export share is about 80%.  Sennheiser has a total workforce of approx. 1,600 employees, of whom 60% are employed in Germany.  Sennheiser is active worldwide and, in addition to other partnerships, has its own sales subsidiaries in France, the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, China, Singapore, Canada, Mexico and the USA.
