Sennheiser, a name synonymous with high-quality audio, has announced its latest hi-fi headphones: the HD 550. This model is designed for both audiophiles and gamers seeking top performance. With a price that exceeds expectations, the HD 550 delivers a balanced and smooth sound, ideal for hours of listening pleasure, whether you’re enjoying music or gaming.

An In-Depth Audio Experience

The HD 550 is equipped with a specially developed 38mm transducer, manufactured in Sennheiser’s own audio factory in Tullamore, Ireland. This transducer provides exceptionally clear sound with a frequency range of 6 Hz to 39.5 kHz and minimal distortion of less than 0.2%. With an impedance of 150 ohms, the HD 550 is compatible with various hi-fi systems and can be easily paired with premium equipment, such as Sennheiser’s HDV 820. The open-back design, utilizing innovative acoustic mesh, ensures an unobstructed sound, while the angled placement of the drivers offers a spacious sound stage. This makes the HD 550 perfect for gamers who require precise positional audio, essential for both competitive and casual gaming sessions.

Comfort and Durability

The HD 550 is designed with comfort in mind. The chassis offers a relaxed clamping force compared to other models in the 500 series. Weighing just 237 grams, these headphones are lighter than most popular gaming controllers. The headband features a ‘soft touch’ texture, and the ventilated ear cup covers made of metal mesh provide a comfortable listening experience while also being durable.

Modular Design for Flexibility

Like other models in the 500 series, the HD 550 features a modular design, allowing for easy replacement of cables and ear pads. The headphones come with a 1.8-meter cable that ends in a stereo 3.5mm jack, along with a 6.35mm adapter for compatibility with various devices. For added flexibility, several cables are available separately, enabling users to easily adapt to different connections.

Availability and Price

The brand new HD 550 is currently available for pre-order and will be shipped starting in April. The suggested retail price is €299.90. This offers both audiophiles and gamers the opportunity to enjoy exceptional sound quality and comfort without compromising on performance.

With the HD 550, Sennheiser once again sets the standard for audio experience, and it seems this headphone will be a must-have for anyone serious about sound.

I made short movies with my stuffed animals as a kid, since then I knew from a young age I wanted to be a videographer. My parents always said I had a great eye for video/photo, so I made my job out of it. Now I make professional corporate video's. I love to learn all about new gadgets and electronics that come to the market, that's why I write/edit for "Best Of High End".
