Sennheiser has introduced the HD 490 PRO headphones, which they say provide great clarity, comfort, and reliability. These headphones are designed to meet the needs of today's music production industry.
The HD 490 PRO series guarantees a natural and accurate sound reproduction without any coloration in the frequency response, covering the full audio spectrum from 5Hz to 36.1kHz (-10dB). These headphones come with two sets of ear pads that are tailored for producing and mixing music. This design helps reduce ear fatigue and enables precise identification of frequencies during critical listening tasks.
The HD 490 PRO headphones are designed with an open-back design and feature neodymium magnets and Sennheiser's unique low-frequency cylinder system. This design is meant to provide a complete, precise, and clear low end sound, allowing for accurate capture of low frequencies.
These headphones from Sennheiser are specifically made to provide comfort and flexibility without causing any discomfort or pressure points, making them perfect for long studio sessions. The Open-frame Architecture used in the HD 490 PRO series by Sennheiser helps to decrease resonance and lower total harmonic distortion (THD).
The headphones come with a Dear Reality dearVR MIX-SE plug-in that utilizes spatial audio technology to provide users with a simulated mixing environment that replicates the sound characteristics of different real-life mixing studios and locations using headphone monitors.
The HD 490 PRO Plus model comes with a longer 3m cable, an extra headband pad, and a carrying case included.
The HD 490 PRO series comes in two options – HD 490 PRO and HD 490 PRO Plus. Both versions include the HD 490 PRO headphones and come with a 3.5 mm (1/8") jack plug to 6.3 mm (1/4") adapter, a 1.8 m cable, mixing ear pads, and producing ear pads. The HD 490 PRO Plus also comes with an extra headband pad, a 3 m cable, and a case.
