Sennheiser is usually known for high-end audio quality and rather clunky design. That changed a little with its Momentum headphones — but now the act is smartened up even further with these colourful cans.
These over-the-ear headphones are smaller, neater version of the first Momentums — in fact, they pack the same audio innards. But just of much as a draw as the audio quality here is the design.
Sennheiser has clearly done its research here, picking out some of the big colour trends of the moment for its new cans, which are available in pistachio, cream, blue and pink. Trimmed with Alcantara — the material that crops up in high-end sports cars and yachts — they are an absolute pleasure to look at.
They will be available later this month, at a lower price point than the originals. Based on the UK pricing, they look set to cost about $250. [Engadget]
