Sennheiser HD 490 PRO

The Sennheiser HD 490 PRO is a masterpiece of acoustic engineering, designed to meet the high demands of modern music production. This headphone, conceived in Germany and handcrafted in Europe, embodies a perfect synergy of durable materials and craftsmanship. Its ergonomic design allows it to bypass sensitive areas of the head and provides outstanding comfort. You will feel so comfortable that you could almost forget you are wearing headphones. This Sennheiser model stands out with its open design, which not only ensures optimal air circulation but also offers an extremely realistic and spatial sound experience. The ability to hear even the finest nuances in music makes these headphones an essential tool for those who want to mix or produce their musical works with the utmost precision. Of particular note is the included Dear Reality software, DearVR MIX-SE, which transforms your workspace into an optimal virtual mixing environment. This plugin ensures that your mix sounds consistently good on various systems and helps you maintain control over your creative vision at all times. With two pairs of ear cushions specially designed for mixing and producing, the headphones ensure that fatigue is minimized, allowing you to focus entirely on listening to individual frequencies. The ear cushions are washable and replaceable, contributing to hygiene and sustainability. Sennheiser has paid special attention to details that enhance the overall experience. The headphone cables are designed not to transmit disturbing noises and can be attached to either the left or right. Braille markings on the ear cups and a groove in the ear cushions for eyeglass temples contribute to accessibility.
