Sennheiser has announced the launch of IE 300 in-ear headphones in the Indian market. The headphones are priced at Rs 29,990. The IE 300 will be available from March 25 across e-commerce channels, Sennheiser webshop and select partner offline outlets.
The in-ear headphones come with individually adjustable flexible ear hooks, as well as silicone and memory foam ear adaptors in three sizes (S/M/L). The IE 300’s supplied 3.5mm cable is reinforced with para-aramid for stability. For additional strain relief, the gold-plated Fidelity+ MMCX connector is seated in a recessed, 4.8mm-wide socket in the housing. Balanced cables with 2.5mm or 4.4 connectors are also available as optional accessories. A premium carry case is included for storing the headphones safely.
The headphones come powered by a “refined version” of Sennheiser’s 7mm Extra Wide Band (XWB) transducer, manufactured at the company’s headquarters in Germany. The components include an optimised membrane foil to minimise natural resonances and total harmonic distortion (THD < 0.08% at 1 kHz, 94 dB), a transducer back volume designed to minimise reflection within the housing and a resonator chamber for removing masking resonances in the ear canal for a more refined and detailed treble. The IE 330 headphones offer a frequency response of 6 Hz – 20 kHz.
