Sennheiser IE 600 - Exceptional down to the last detail.
Not only does this extraordinary earpiece reproduce the details and emotions of a recording - it amplifies them. Because every IE 600 is a masterpiece. From the hand-finished amorphous metal housing to the high-end audio components developed and manufactured by Sennheiser, every detail of this earpiece is thought out to the highest level and crafted with the utmost care. The balanced frequency response of the IE 600 promises pure, natural reproduction – and due to the high-quality materials, it is able to fulfil this promise even after many years.
Balanced neutral tuning
To achieve a natural sound that matches the neutrality of high-end studio monitors, our engineers have carefully tuned the acoustic volume inside the sound channel of the IE 600.
New accents and details
This gives the sound a presence and intimacy that brings very close to the music, allowing completely new accents and details to be heard. Achieving this level of balance and naturalness was a real challenge. This makes it difficult for the human ear to perceive all the nuances when similar sounds occur simultaneously in a piece of music.
The IE 600 is therefore equipped with two double chamber absorbers (D2CA) that absorb and attenuate such masking frequencies so that even the finest structures of music emerge.
Stronger than steel, built to last
Glossy, satin finish
The effort has been worth it: Heraeus Amloy Technologies' zirconium alloy we selected for the IE 600 is three times harder and more resistant to bending than high-performance steel. Amorphous metals are shock-frozen during production and therefore cannot form a crystalline structure as conventional metals do. The result is a glossy, semi-gloss finish that is exceptionally resistant to corrosion and scratches.
New material
The housing of the IE 600 is manufactured using a 3D printing process based on metal powder, with which every conceivable shape can be produced within tight tolerances. Chambers and channels are created as part of this additive manufacturing process, which does not require milling.
Exceptional resilience
One of the few places to find it, except in ultra-high-end products such as the IE 600, is the drill head of a NASA Mars rover.
Automated manufacturing, hand-finished
The case is made of amorphous metal in Germany and includes both automated and manual steps.
Perfect shape
A computer-controlled laser sinters a thin layer of metal powder and welds the molten alloy to the already hardened material underneath. Layer by layer creates the complete case. A technician then removes by hand all residues of the manufacturing process.
Elaborate surface treatment
Thorough cleaning, steel gravel irradiation, polishing and an elaborate surface treatment give the case its final, extremely durable aesthetics. Even daily use leaves virtually no marks in the form of scratches or wear.
