Sennheiser HD 25, Celebrating 25 Years

Sennheiser's HD 25 headphones are a popular choice within the DJ and music professional community the world over. Originally launched in 1988, to celebrate the 25th anniversary Sennheiser have released the HD 25 Aluminium.

A new version featuring a unique aluminium finish, the HD 25 Aluminium are built to withstand even the most demanding professional use, while delivering peerless sound quality. Individually lathed from single blocks of aluminium, the metal earcups give the headphones a unique appearance while taking the clear sound to new heights by further minimizing the resonances in audible range.

“This headphone initially conceived for professional broadcasters was also championed by top DJs for its incredible sound and durability – a performance that has scarcely been equalled in 25 years as the HD 25 has continued to evolve and set the standard. Meanwhile, the story of the HD 25 also mirrors that of club culture: over a quarter of a century, the world has seen the rise of the superstar DJ, as the technical skills and artistry needed to bring music to life took centre stage. The HD 25s have travelled on this journey: they have accompanied many of the world’s leading DJs throughout their careers – from the small venues where legends were born, to the world’s biggest arenas. With the HD 25 ALUMINIUM, the journey continues as we honour that heritage with a new look for the future.” - Paul Whiting, President of Global Sales, Sennheiser.

According to Sennheiser, the sound performance offers tightly controlled bass and detailed treble while handling high sound pressure levels. The rotatable capsules are perfect for one-ear monitoring and offer impressive attenuation of background noise, while staying comfortable for long periods of use.

Sennheiser HD 25 Aluminium is available now from selected retail outlets.

applause awards

Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.

Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.

The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.

We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
