Sound meets fashion: Sennheiser's new MOMENTUM On-Ear
The new Sennheiser MOMENTUM On-Ear is crafted from the finest materials and available in four colors.
- (1888PressRelease) July 10, 2013 - Delighting ears and turning heads: Sennheiser's MOMENTUM On-Ear headphones see the audio specialist getting seriously fashionable. The newest addition to Sennheiser's MOMENTUM family debuts in a palette of fresh, pastel colors that's right in step with the latest fashion collections. To celebrate the launch of the headphones, renowned photographer Alexander Gnädinger worked with three established fashion bloggers from different countries to create personal portraits reflecting the colors and the style of the new MOMENTUM On-Ear.
Injecting bright, beautiful color into Sennheiser's range of headphones, the new MOMENTUM On-Ear is crafted from the finest materials and available in four colors, inspired by an international team of design experts and trend scouts. With versions in blue, green, pink and ivory, the pastel shades define an emerging trend for subtler color that is a key look in the current fashion collections.
The look, the feel, the sound:
As well as exciting those with an eye for style, the MOMENTUM On-Ear headphones are a tactile delight: They feature a headband and earpads finished in high-tech Alcantara®, a specialised luxury material loved by designers and automotive upholsterers for its unique combination of softness, durability, and breathable comfort. While providing supreme comfort, the Alcantara® earpads isolate the listener for a great listening experience on the move, even in noisy urban environments. Lightweight sliders of premium brushed stainless steel complete the high end look.
Seriously stylish does not mean compromising on sound. The MOMENTUM On-Ear headphones deliver a sound experience that one would expect from audio specialist Sennheiser. The high performance transducer system offers an uncompromising sound performance: Rich, detailed and with a slight bass emphasis.
Inspired by fashion, inspiring the fashionable:
To reflect idea and vision behind the MOMENTUM On-Ear, Sennheiser has worked with Alexander Gnädinger, a renowned photographer in the field of fashion and lifestyle, to explore how the unique colors and styling of the headphone range could inspire international fashion bloggers. Starting with a pair of MOMENTUM On-Ear headphones in the colors that best matched their own distinctive style, bloggers Luke Todd from the UK's "FashionBeans", Haleigh Walsworth from France's "Making Magique", and Anna Frost from Germany's "Fashionpuppe" were invited to work with the photographer to art direct and model in their own photoshoots.
Alexander Gnädinger explains how the vision came together: "It was very interesting to work with the three different bloggers, to look at them, learn from them, work with their style and then jointly create a personal portrait, related to fashion, music and the new Sennheiser headphones."
"I really like the MOMENTUM On-Ear. It creates the link between fashion and music. Where it has always existed it's now shown in a physical form - it looks good, with great colors and the sound is brilliant. It really cements the bond between the two," says FashionBeans' Luke Todd.
The new headphones feature a single sided detachable cable with convenient in-line remote and mic for Apple iDevices, for easy control over music playback and to make and receive calls on the go.
