There are headphone brands that follow trends. Sennheiser is the brand that set them.
Founded in Germany in 1945 by Dr. Fritz Sennheiser, the company that now bears his name has been building high-fidelity audio equipment for more than eighty years. In 1968, Sennheiser invented the open-back headphone with the HD 414 — a design that changed what listening to music could feel like and established a template that every audiophile headphone manufacturer still works from today. That heritage is not just history. It is the engineering DNA running through every product in the current range.
The HD series - a hierarchy worth understanding
The HD series is where most listeners find their way into Sennheiser. It is also, for many, where they stop looking. The range spans from genuinely accessible to genuinely reference-grade, and understanding the differences between models is the first step to buying the right one.
The HD 599 is the open-back entry point. High-quality proprietary transducers, the characteristic open-back soundstage, and a comfortable fit for long sessions. A natural first step for anyone moving from consumer headphones to something more serious.
The HD 600 is arguably one of the most influential headphones ever made. Released in 1997 and still in production, it delivers a neutral, transparent sound that recording engineers, mastering professionals and serious listeners have used as a reference for decades. Computer-optimised neodymium magnets, lightweight aluminium voice coils, acoustically transparent metal mesh earcups — every element designed to get out of the way of the music.
The HD 650 builds on that foundation with a warmer, more enveloping character. The same transparent ethos, but tuned for listeners who want a little more body in the low frequencies and a more intimate presentation. Made in Ireland at Sennheiser's state-of-the-art production facility, with hand-paired drivers matched to exacting tolerances and a detachable, impedance-matched cable.
The HD 660 S2 extends the lineage further, adding improved sub-bass extension and refined dynamics. Where the HD 600 is analytical and the HD 650 is musical, the HD 660 S2 is the model for listeners who want both qualities in one headphone. Also built in Ireland.
The HD 620S takes the DNA of the HD 600 and HD 500 series and applies it to a closed-back design. It delivers a surprisingly open, detailed sound for a sealed headphone, with 42 mm angled transducers and an aluminium voice coil. For listeners who need the isolation of a closed back without sacrificing the reference character of the HD series, this is the answer.
The HD 569 is the closed-back option for everyday use — versatile, comfortable, and built with the same acoustic principles that govern the rest of the HD range.
The IE series - audiophile in-ears, built in Germany
Sennheiser's IE series applies the same German-engineering philosophy to in-ear form. Each model is built around Sennheiser's TrueResponse transducer, developed and manufactured in-house.
The IE 200 is the entry point. A 7 mm TrueResponse transducer, detachable cable, and a natural tonal balance that outperforms its price bracket considerably. For listeners who want genuine audiophile sound in a wearable, pocketable form without stepping up to the IE 300 or IE 600.
The IE 300 adds a refined resonator chamber system designed to eliminate frequency masking inside the ear canal, delivering more precise imaging and better separation between instruments. The result is a noticeably more resolved presentation than the IE 200.
The IE 600 is the flagship wired in-ear in the LENC range. Its housing is 3D printed in Germany from ZR01 amorphous zirconium — a material with a glass-like atomic structure that gives it triple the hardness and bend resistance of high-performance steel. A dual two-chamber absorber system eliminates masking resonances to deliver the kind of neutral, studio-monitor clarity that puts the IE 600 in the same conversation as full-sized reference headphones at several times the price.
Wireless without compromise
The HDB 630 is Sennheiser's answer to a question serious listeners have been asking for years: can a wireless headphone sound as good as a wired one? The answer, with the right engineering, is very nearly yes. A custom 42 mm dynamic transducer manufactured at Sennheiser's Tullamore facility in Ireland, aptX HD and aptX Adaptive support, up to 60 hours of battery life, and a bundled BTD 700 Bluetooth USB-C dongle for lossless listening directly from a computer. If wireless has been a compromise you have been unwilling to make, the HDB 630 is worth hearing.

Check out some of our most commonly asked questions.
What do I need to play records?
Getting into vinyl? That’s awesome! We have some curated turntable Hi-Fi packs, with everything you'll need to get spinning right away. But if you want to build your own, read on for all the details.
First off, you'll need a turntable. It's the star of the show, so make sure it’s in good nick, with a decent cartridge and stylus (needle).
Next, there’s the phono preamp. Some turntables or amplifiers come with one built-in, but if yours doesn’t, you’ll need one as a bridge between your turntable and amplifier or powered speakers.
For the sound output, you’ve got two options. You can go with a traditional setup involving an integrated amplifier to take the signal from your phono preamp and power your passive speakers. Alternatively, you can opt for powered speakers, which have the amplifier built in – a handy all-in-one solution.
Speaking of speakers, good ones are a must for that rich, warm vinyl sound we all love. Whether you go for bookshelf or floorstanding speakers (or powered ones) depends on your space and budget.
And there you go! With these essentials, you’ll be ready to dive into your vinyl collection and enjoy that classic sound.
What can a wireless speaker do?
Wireless speakers are a game-changer for how you enjoy music and audio around the house. First off, they let you stream music wirelessly from your phone, tablet, or computer, so no more messing about with cables. You can easily play tunes from Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal or whatever streaming service you fancy.
If you’re into having music everywhere, many wireless speakers offer multi-room audio. You can sync them up to play the same music in every room or control what plays in each room individually, perfect for parties or just keeping the vibes consistent throughout your home.
Voice control is another brilliant feature. Many come with built-in assistants like Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri. You can control your music with just your voice, ask for the weather, set reminders, or even control other smart home devices.
Sound quality? These little gadgets often pack a punch, delivering high-quality audio that can rival traditional wired setups. Some even offer 360-degree sound, filling the room with music from every angle.
In a nutshell, wireless speakers bring flexibility, convenience, and top-notch sound to your audio experience, making them a fantastic addition to any home. Whether you’re hosting a party, working from home, or just chilling out, they make listening to music a breeze.
How do you choose the right speaker & amplifier combination?
Deciding on a good speaker and amplifier combination is like putting together a perfect wine and cheese pairing—it’s all about balance and harmony. Here’s a conversational guide to help you through it:
First, consider your speakers. These are your main players, so you want to choose ones that fit your space and listening preferences. If you love deep bass and have a bit of room, floorstanding speakers might be your go-to. For smaller spaces or a more subtle look, bookshelf speakers are fantastic.
Now, onto the amplifier. This is where things get interesting. Your amp needs to match your speakers in terms of power and impedance. Check the wattage ratings on your speakers—your amplifier should provide enough power to drive them properly. Too little power and you’ll be missing out on sound quality; too much, and you risk damaging your speakers.
Next, think about the impedance (measured in ohms). Your amp and speakers should be compatible here too. Most speakers are rated at 8 ohms, but some can be 4 or 6. Make sure your amplifier can handle the impedance of your speakers to avoid any performance issues.
Another important factor is the type of sound you’re after. Some amps are known for their warm, rich tones, while others might be more neutral or even slightly bright. It’s a bit like choosing between a vinyl record and a digital stream or CD —each has its own charm. If possible, listen to different amp and speaker combinations to see what sounds best to your ears.
If purchasing online, note that at LE, we have made recommendations on speaker & amplifier combinations that we think sound wonderful together within each product listing.
Don’t forget about connectivity and features. Modern amplifiers often come with a host of options like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi streaming, and various inputs for all your devices. Make sure your amp has the inputs you need for your turntable, CD player, or streaming device.
Finally, consider your budget. Great sound doesn’t always mean breaking the bank, but be prepared to invest to get a quality setup that will last.
In the end, trust your ears. Listen to a few combinations if you can, and go with what makes your music sound the best to you.
Why do I need a headphone amplifier?
If you’re diving into the world of high-quality audio, a headphone amplifier can be a real game-changer. Think of it like this: most standard devices, like your smartphone or laptop, just don’t have the oomph needed to drive headphones properly. They might get the job done, but they won’t do your music justice. A headphone amp gives your headphones the power they need, ensuring you get the volume and clarity that really makes your music shine.
It’s not just about making things louder, either. A good headphone amp can significantly improve sound quality. You’ll get clearer highs, richer mids, and tighter bass, making your favourite tracks sound even better. You might notice details you’ve never heard before, especially if you’re listening to high-resolution audio files.
Premium headphones often have higher impedance, meaning they require more power than your typical audio source can provide. A headphone amp can handle this with ease, making sure your headphones perform at their absolute best. Plus, many amps come with extra features like bass boost, equalisation, and gain control, giving you more ways to tweak the sound to your liking.
In short, if you’re passionate about your music and want to hear it in the best possible way, a headphone amplifier is definitely worth considering. It’s all about unlocking the full potential of your gear and really getting the most out of your listening experience.
Where should I start when designing a home cinema?
Designing your own home cinema? That's awesome! We are here to help walk you through the process, but as a starting point, here’s what we would recommend and where to kick things off:
First up, pick your spot. For most people this is your existing lounge room, but if you have an underused garage, or spare bedroom, then you have an opportunity to create your very own true Home Cinema experience. Find a room that’s just right—not too cramped and ideally away from noisy areas. This sets the stage for that immersive movie experience.
Next, think about how you’ll set things up. Plan where your seats will go and where to place your projector screen for the best view from every angle. It’s all about creating that comfy, cinematic vibe.
Sound matters, too. Consider if you want a wireless system for simplicity or a full surround sound speaker system with AV receiver for that surround-sound thrill. Think about soundproofing or adding acoustic panels or thick carpets to really amp up the audio quality of the room.
Now, onto the screen. Decide between a crisp TV or a projector setup, depending on your room size and personal style. Maybe even throw in some dimmable lights or smart lighting to set the mood just right.
And hey, don’t forget comfort. Invest in plush cinema seating and think about the décor—whether it’s movie posters, blackout curtains, or popcorn machine & bar area, whatever gives you that true cinema feel.
Lastly, tech it up! Make sure everything—from your Blu-Ray player & Apple TV to your gaming consoles—is set to sync perfectly with your new setup.
With these steps, you’re on your way to creating a home cinema that’s not just a space, but an experience. Enjoy movie nights like never before!
