Sennheiser Announces New HD Headphones

Sennheiser just announced several new full-sized HD headphones for portable players. But not just for your MP3 player, the HD 428, HD 438 and HD 448 also are good enough to use on your home hi-fi system.

All models have soft padding for comfort and a closed-back, around-the-ear design. And, for moving around without getting tangled up, the headphones feature a single-sided cable. Each headphone also comes with a gold-plated quarter-inch stereo adapter, so you can get great sound on a home stereo system.

The top-of-the-line HD 448 model offers a lifelike sound experience and includes a 5.2 foot extension cable. It sells for $129.95. The mid-range HD 438 also offers natural sound and comes with a 4.6-foot and 10-foot detachable cables. It is available for $119.95. For those wanting powerful bass, look no further than the HD 428. It is more focused on lower frequencies. The MSRP for the HD 428 is $99.95.

The HD 428, HD 438 and HD 448 are available online from J&R and will hit Best Buy stores in late October.
