Sennheiser HD 8 DJ Closed-Back Headphones Overview
Sennheiser HD 8 DJ Closed-Back Headphones Product Overview by GAK
The Sennheiser HD8 DJ headphones are designed to deliver night after night in demanding professional environments. They feature an elliptical, circumaural design to ensure maximum comfort and efficient reduction of background noise in loud environments. They are capable of very high SPL handling (115 dB) and their 95 ohm impedance guarantees ultimate compatibility with your DJ equipment.
Flexibility is also a main focus, with swivelling ear cups for one-ear listening plus three different wearing positions. Lastly, the HD8 DJ headphones sport a stylish and contemporary black and blue finish which will look wherever you are.
- The new Sennheiser models HD8 DJ and HD7 DJ are focused on the rhythm and beat matching that professionals DJs need. Delivering a mid-low end emphasis, their sound remains tight throughout, with clarity retained in the high frequencies. Capable of very loud, high SPL, they are suitable for DJ performance environments, while their high noise isolation reduces the impact of maxing out the volume, for safer listening.
- For easy, comfortable one-ear monitoring, both DJ models feature swivelling ear cups with up to 210° of movement and three different wearing positions to suit your individual preference. Both models are made of extremely durable high-quality materials, with the top-of-the-range HD8 DJ also featuring metal-crafted reinforcement parts.
