Sennheiser HD 550 HiFi Headphone Set

Sennheiser HD 550 - Discover Unheard Details!

With the HD 550, Sennheiser presents a HiFi headphone that strikes a perfect balance between uncompromising quality and intuitive fine-tuning. The spacious stereo sound and ultra-lightweight design of the HD 550 lay the foundation for long-lasting listening pleasure, benefiting both music lovers and gamers.

The heart of the HD 550 is the specially developed 38mm transducer, manufactured in Sennheiser’s audiophile factory in Tullamore, Ireland. The driver delivers outstanding clarity across the frequency range from 6 Hz to 39.5 kHz with a total harmonic distortion below 0.2 percent.

With 150 Ohms impedance, it’s the perfect match for a wide range of HiFi devices. Paired with premium audio gear like the Sennheiser HDV 820, it offers an exceptional listening experience.

Designed for Maximum Comfort

The HD 550 features a housing known for its long-lasting comfort. Compared to other models in the 500 series, the HD 550 impresses with an even gentler clamping force and its mere 237 grams weight. The soft, textured headband and breathable ear cup covers made of metal mesh provide high comfort without compromising the headphone’s durability.

Open Design, Spacious Sound

The fully open design uses a new acoustic fabric that protects the drivers and removes all barriers between listener and music. The angled orientation of the drivers creates a spacious soundstage that places the listener at the center of the sonic spectrum. Gamers benefit from latency-free spatial perception and immersion, perfect for professional battles or casual sessions.

As typical for Sennheiser audio products, the HD 550 delivers punchy bass and crystal-clear transients with neutral mids, without deviating from the authentic sound reproduction appreciated by audiophiles.

The HD 550 is modularly built, allowing easy replacement of cables and ear pads. It comes with a 1.8-meter cable featuring a 3.5mm stereo jack with a 6.35mm adapter, making it compatible with a wide variety of devices.

Practical Protective Case by Omnitronic

The included Omnitronic HPC-1 headphone case features a zipper, a handy inner mesh pocket, and a detachable shoulder strap.
