Presenting the latest news: Sennheiser has released the new HD 490 PRO headphones
Sennheiser recently introduced the HD 490 PRO headphones, which they say provide excellent clarity, comfort, and reliability. These headphones were designed to meet the needs of contemporary music production.
The HD 490 PRO series guarantees a natural and accurate sound reproduction, covering the full range of audio frequencies 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 frequency identification during critical listening tasks.
The HD 490 PRO headphones have an open-back design that includes 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.
Sennheiser has created these headphones with a focus on comfort and flexibility, ensuring they are suitable for long studio sessions. The Open-frame Architecture in the HD 490 PRO series by Sennheiser helps reduce distortion and resonance for a better audio experience.
The headphones come with a plug-in called Dear Reality dearVR MIX-SE, which utilizes spatial audio technology to create a virtual mixing space that replicates the sound characteristics of different real-life mix studios and locations when using headphone monitors.
The HD 490 PRO Plus variant comes with a longer 3m cable, an extra headband pad, and a carrying case.
There are two options in the HD 490 PRO series – the HD 490 PRO and the HD 490 PRO Plus. Both options come with the HD 490 PRO headphones, a cable with a 3.5 mm to 6.3 mm adapter, mixing ear pads, and producing ear pads. The HD 490 PRO Plus also includes an extra headband pad, a longer 3 m cable, and a case.
The Sennheiser HD 490 PRO headphones are currently on the market and can be purchased for $399£349 for the standard version and $479£399 for the upgraded PRO Plus version.
