Old Lyme, Conn.
– Sennheiser announced updates to its PX 100 and PX 200 foldable headphones.
The PX 100-II and PX200-II both have
transducers with neodymium magnets that ensure a clear and natural sound
reproduction and a total harmonic distortion of less than 0.1 percent,
according to the company.
The PX 100-II is a mini headphone with an
open design. Its frequency response ranges from 15Hz to 27,000Hz.
The PX 200-II has a closed design that’s
meant to reduce external noise. The ear pads have also been improved,
Sennheiser said, to provide a comfortable “seal” against ambient noise. Its
frequency response extends from 10Hz to 21,000Hz.
Both
headphones – which have steel-reinforced headbands – come with a 4-foot,
single-sided cable, and both have a “flip and old” design. The PX 200-II also
has an in-line volume control.
They are offered in black or white for the
following suggested retail: PX 100-II, $89.95; PX 200-II, $119.
