Sennheiser Reinventing the Dynamic Driver
Principle with Its All New IE40 PRO, IE
400 PRO and IE 500 PRO In-Ear Monitors
Launched at NAMM 2019, these professional in-ear monitors ensure
impeccable audio reproduction with warmth, great detail and natural clarity
Audio specialist, Sennheiser recently added three new members in its family of professional in-ear monitors IE40 PRO, IE 400 PRO
and IE 500 PRO. The brand-new series of professional in-ears offer natural, high-resolution sound, a secure and comfortable fit that
comes close to custom-molded in-ears and a break-proof, patent-pending cable connection. These new models have been appreciated
and loved by musicians, DJs and sound engineers across the globe.
Theses professional in-ears ensures impeccable audio reproduction with warmth, great detail and natural clarity, thus improving
the artist’s focus and performance control even in difficult stage situations. The three models target professionals across segment
with IE 500 PRO being top-of-the-range followed by IE 400 PRO and IE 40 Pro designed as an entry model.
Sound profile
This single-driver technology, termed TrueResponse, ensures
a completely natural, clear and spacious sound stage with a
total harmonic distortion (THD) as low as under 0.08% at 1
kHz and 94 dB. When the sound is so precise and detailed, the
acoustical stress for the wearer is reduced, and they discover
that they can set their monitors to a lower level. Even so, the
sound still has punch – even in the loudest of surroundings. This
enables musicians to critically monitor their sound and to fully
concentrate on their performance.
Comfort and fit
With the driver measuring only 7 mm in diameter, the IE 400
PRO and IE 500 PRO feature a comfortable ear mold, which
is ergonomically shaped, has a low profile and is extremely
lightweight. The in-ears come with silicone ear adapters in
various sizes and special ear tips made from memory foam,
which expand to perfectly fit the ear canal. In addition, the
earphones’ ‘sound tunnel’ has two rest positions to attach the
ear tips to, to accommodate the variances in length of human ear
canals. This results in a secure and comfortable fit that comes
very close to custom-made ear molds. Moreover, the perfect
sealing provides powerful bass reproduction and a reduction
in ambient sound by up to 26 dB, protecting the wearer against
excessive stage sound.
Patent-pending audio connection
Like every in-ear in this professional series, the IE 400 PRO and
IE 500 PRO are fitted with a break-proof inner cable duct (patent
pending), that has the cable’s sturdy anti-kink sleeve sit directly
on the ear mold, providing a long-lasting solution for the rigors
of stage use. For easy distinction, the right ear mold has a red
ring at its cable connection. Both new models have a detachable
cable with a reinforced ear hook. While the IE 400 PRO comes
with a black, straight cable, the IE 500 PROs are fitted with a
clear, twisted-pair cable which provides optimized resistance to
structure-borne noise
