The perfect reproduction of sound, unadulterated and clear – that is what the IE 600 stands for. The IE 600 is a pair of earphones that follows in the footsteps of the audiophile IE 900, Sennheiser's flagship in-ears. Based on the highly acclaimed TrueResponse transducers, the IE 600 features the "Dual 2 Chamber Absorber" resonator chambers that help the sound setup to have a direct and focused space. Voices come to the fore and build a bridge between you and the music so that the world around you disappears.
With decades of expertise and continuous research crafted into the dynamic 7 mm inear transducers, the IE 600 is capable of a neutral sound reproduction and a yet powerful low bass range. The balanced reproduction delivers crisp trebles that do not analytically dissect the music. The IE 600 reflects our engineers' passion for reproducing the perfect sound and for creating the experience of an intimate personal moment with music.
The IE 600 is manufactured by a team of experts at our factory specialized in headphones in Tullamore, Ireland. And, as with any audiophile headphones, the tightest production tolerances apply. Every transducer is fully tested – first individually and then together after the right and left earphones have been hand-selected in pairs. The transducers of the right and left earphones are carefully selected to optimally match with each other.
The transducers are enclosed in earphone housings that are unprecedented in audiophile earphones. Selective laser melting was used to build the housing layer by layer into a metal with amorphous structures. The result is an extremely hard material that is resilient against environmental influences. Due to its properties and the complex production process, it was primarily used in aerospace or medical technology. Besides, the metallic rough surface of the zirconium-copper-aluminum-niobium alloy is a real eye-catcher.
The IE 600 provides outstanding connectivity with Fidelity+ MMCX connections. These precise plug connections have been optimized for mobile use of the earphones. Due to the high sheathing of the plug connections, the filigree contacts are well protected against mechanical stress. On the device side, 3.5 mm and 4.4 mm jack plugs are available as standard.
The over-the-ear cable routing with adjustable ear hooks provides lightweight wearing comfort as well as reduced structure-borne noise compared to standard cables. So you can enjoy even long listening sessions with these unique Sennheiser IE 600 earphones.
The perceived sound quality including bass performance and the reduction of ambient noise depends to a large extent on the correct fit of the earphones in the ears. Figure out which ear adapter type and size suits you best in terms of both sound quality and wearing comfort.
