Features List

Closed Back Design

The closed-back earcups are helpful in isolating ambient noise during listening as well as blocking the audio leakage from inside the headphones. This also means that these headphones would be great for listening when you are alone or in a shared environment.

56mm Ring Radiator Transducers

These headphones contain 56mm Ring Radiator transducers. Their purpose is to provide high-quality sound that can be heard across all frequency ranges. In addition, each transducer is manufactured and checked according to high standards set by the company.

Concave Gorilla Glass Reflectors

In particular, the headphones have special concave Gorilla Glass reflectors behind transducers. Their main role is to help control sound in the earcups. Such a configuration allows creating a wider sound image while maintaining closed-back construction.

Acoustic Absorber System

An acoustic absorber also plays an important role in the process of controlling unnecessary sound in the earcup. It also minimizes the influence of the resonant sound from the closed construction.

Comfy Over-Ear Design

The big ear cups encircle your ear and do not rest directly on it. Comfort is provided by microfiber cushions that surround the ear cups and headband. The metallic headband can also be adjusted. Ear cups can be swiveled into various positions for a better fit.

Detachable Cables (3m)

There are two detachable cables measuring 3 meters each. The first cable features a 6.35 mm stereo plug. The second one comes with a 4.4 mm plug. The detachable design allows users to replace the cables if necessary.

Audio and Performance

The HD 820 Sennheiser headphones aim to provide users with a spatial sound experience without an open-back design. These 56 mm Ring Radiator drivers in combination with the reflectors and the acoustic absorber technology, regulate the sound within the ear cups. The tilt of the driver is beneficial for creating the best stereo imaging and separation of voices, instruments, and other components of the recording.

The frequency response of the headphones is 6 Hz to 48,000 Hz and the impedance is 300 Ohm. Therefore, the HD 820 will be better suited for high-quality home audio rather than portable low-powered sources.

Connection Options

HD 820 provides you with two cables included in the box. The 6.35 mm stereo connection cable will connect your headphones to compatible headphone amplifiers, DACs, and A/V receivers. The 4.4 mm balanced connection cable is meant for use with compatible balanced output devices, such as headphone amplifiers and digital audio players. There is also an optional XLR-4 balanced cable for compatible audio equipment.
