Sennheiser, the German audio legend, has now launched its HD 505 wired headphones in India. With an aim to woo both audiophiles and gamers, the HD 505 offers studio-grade sound reproduction, comfort for extended periods of wear, and compatibility with a broad array of devices. At ₹27,990, the headphones belong to Sennheiser’s award-winning HD 500 series and come in a striking Copper Edition finish.
PREMIUM ENGINEERING WITH AUDIOPHILE DNA
At the core of the Sennheiser HD 505 is a bespoke 120-ohm transducer, hand-built at the company’s audiophile plant in Tullamore, Ireland. With a frequency response of 12Hz to 38,500Hz, these headphones are designed to pick up every detail in sound—be it the low-end rumble, sharp highs, or balanced mids.
The angled transducers mimic the geometry of nearfield studio monitors, providing a large soundstage that adds depth and realism—perfect for immersive music listening, gaming, or even movie night.
FOR COMFORT & VERSATILITY
The HD 505 weighs only 237 grams and supports prolonged listening periods with its lightweight design. The synthetic leather headband and metal mesh earcup covers offer comfort and wear resistance. The open-backed setup provides a natural sound with continued breathability during prolonged usage.
For extra convenience, the headphones include a removable 1.8-meter cable with a 3.5mm tip as well as a 6.3mm adapter, facilitating seamless compatibility with amplifiers, audio interfaces, AV receivers, and other premium gear.
MODULAR AND UPGRADE-FRIENDLY
Sennheiser has made the HD 505 modular in design. The earpads and the cable are replaceable, which makes it easy to maintain and customize the headphones. This will help users maximize the lifespan of their headphones and upgrade over time.
