Sennheiser HME 27 Professional Broadcast Headphone

Sennheiser HME 27 Professional Broadcast Headphone Overview:

The new HME 27-series invites the Broadcast Commentators and Audio Engineers to experience the highest level of wearing comfort. HME 27 are a closed and circumaural earcup design to provide a high passive attenuation but nevertheless unusually lightweight and comfortable over long working hours. Soft circumaural earpads ensure a comfortable fit. The headset is similar to the HMS 26series equipped with the automatically opening two-piece headband, hence no pressure on the sensitive fontanelle. For those users who still prefer a conventional headband, a wide headband padding is included that converts the two-piece headband into a compact single piece.

Features:

• Highest wearing comfort due to the lightweight circumaural design and the splitted headband (no pressure on the sensitive fontanelle)
• Accurate and linear sound reproduction for very demanding monitoring
• Pre-polarized condenser microphone with cardioid directivity for a precise audio reproduction and higher intelligibility in highest broadcast quality even in noisy environments
• ActiveGard (on/off switch) for protected hearing against noise peaks > 110dB
• Modular concept of different cables and boom arms to offer highest flexibility
• Cables of the cable 26-II series are compatible
• Swiveling ear cap for single sided listening
• Microphone can be worn either on right or left hand side
• Wide headband padding is included that converts the two-piece headband into a compact single piece
