Headphones Sennheiser IE 500 Pro Smoky Black

These are powerful professional in-ear headphones for personal monitoring. The model confidently generates truly clear and punchy sound with exceptionally high resolution and without distortion, even at extreme sound pressure levels. The new IE 500 PRO is based on a tiny 7mm transducer and the latest TrueResponse technology, thanks to which the headphone distortion ratio is brought to an incredible 0.08% even in our time. At the same time, the extremely compact and comfortable IE 500 PRO is designed for very long and active use, they are durable, well-thought-out ergonomics and easily adapt to the individual anatomy of the ear canal of their user.

The sound of the highest resolution and, therefore, the ability to clearly hear every, even its smallest detail, is the main advantage of the new IE 500 PRO. The headphones are equipped with dual cables, therefore, even at extreme volume levels, they reproduce consistently high-quality sound, clearly and predictably respond to any changes in sound dynamics, building an amazingly clear and expressive audio picture that you hear without any effort. Powerful, accurate and highly reliable, the IE 500 PRO is professionally oriented from the ground up and designed to work comfortably, on any stage, in any environment, with any workload and for as long as you like.

Sennheiser's proprietary 7mm diaphragm dynamic driver, coupled with the latest TrueResponse technology, delivers fantastic sound resolution, greatly reducing acoustic strain and allowing you to control your sound. In IE 500 PRO you can work as long as you need and without any discomfort. In addition, these headphones have a distortion coefficient brought to a record 0.08% for such systems. Therefore, phase distortion, overlapping ranges, resonant peaks and other technical problems, until recently considered unrecoverable, the new IE 500 PRO confidently turn into almost forgotten memories.

The advanced design makes it possible to use every square millimeter of the diaphragm and every milligram of available air for high-quality sound transmission, while there is also enough space for comfort. It is thanks to the innovative design with a single transducer that the headphones are so light and compact.

Plus, they have a large set of tips made of soft silicone and special memory foam, with which the IE 500 PRO effectively protect hearing from external noise and, importantly, quickly and easily adapt to the anatomy of the ear canals of its owner so that as if they were custom-made. Headphones are securely held in place, but at the same time they never press, do not interfere with movement and are easily removed from the ears.

And given that different things happen during performances and rehearsals, and every detail can be of great importance, even the cables of the IE 500 Pro are redesigned and redesigned. They are replaceable, ruggedized, and their internal cable channels and connectors are also protected from mechanical damage and are a unique Sennheiser development (the corresponding patent is already registered).

In general, if for normal operation you need modern in-ear monitor headphones that are guaranteed to provide the highest resolution sound in any conditions and on any stage, powerful, accurate and predictable, without interference and distortion and at any, even maximum sound pressure levels, then IE 500 PRO are just such headphones!

Key benefits of the Sennheiser IE 500 PRO

• New advanced 7mm dynamic wideband transducer generates smooth and powerful high-definition sound;
• detachable twin cables with built-in protection against structural interference;
• proprietary TrueResponse conversion technology minimizes the effect of acoustic stressors on signal quality and reproduces powerful and smooth sound without interference;
• headphones are made with the expectation of long-term and active use, they are durable, thoughtful ergonomics and very comfortable;
• soft ear tips (silicone or porous) securely hold the headphones in your ears and perfectly isolate your hearing from external noise;
• Proprietary cables and cable channels are protected from mechanical damage and are designed with all the inevitable difficulties of stage work in mind.

With the new Sennheiser IE 500 PRO, not only can you hear yourself very clearly in the mix, you can also perfectly and effortlessly hear the smallest details of other voices and instruments, even on a very loud stage. Thanks to TrueResponse technology, these headphones work equally expressively and reproduce sound without distortion even at extreme volume levels.

The highest resolution, powerful and clear mids, wide and accurate sound picture, plus, miniature size and reliable design - as you can see, IE 500 PRO fully corresponds to the main idea of the entire IE series - MoreMe - and in them you now hear yourself and more, and better. So listen more, control the mix more effectively and work with the sound more freely - your IE 500 PRO is designed for this!

Unlike the vast majority of modern personal monitoring systems, which, as a rule, use several transducers at once (and which are actually a descendant of hearing aids), the IE 500 PRO is equipped with only one Sennheiser proprietary dynamic driver of a new, improved design.

The fact is that the entire range of reproducible frequencies does not have to be divided into separate segments at all and it is quite possible to keep it unified. With this natural and harmonious integrity, the IE 500 PRO produces a sound that is even and powerful over a much wider range.

The only dynamic high-performance transducer with a diaphragm diameter of only 7 millimeters confidently covers the entire frequency spectrum and eliminates another problem of old multi-driver systems - the inevitable phase distortion and dissonance that inevitably occurs in the user's inner ear. A system of powerful neodymium magnets with three-channel ventilation eliminates the risk of distortion, and a special two-chamber absorber, firstly, reduces resonant overload caused by natural processes in the ear, and secondly, prevents dissonances from drowning out high frequencies and excessively “pressing” on the ear.

As a result, we repeat, even at the highest level of sound pressure, the IE 500 Pro reproduces the sound cleanly, without interference and without distortion, as a whole, preserving its original harmony, natural warmth and expressiveness. Therefore, in these miniature monitor headphones, you not only hear every, even the smallest nuance of sound without the slightest effort, you literally feel the sound, feeling its air waves with your inner ear. But a very powerful and equally clear sound is exactly what is required from professional in-ear monitor headphones, isn't it?

Sennheiser IE 500 PRO is also made to be comfortable to work in as long as you need. Headphones can quickly be applied to the anatomy of the ears of their owner, always securely stay in place and well isolate hearing from the external sound background. To do this, the model is equipped with interchangeable eartips of different diameters (S, M and L) made of soft silicone, as well as three pairs of eartips (also (S, M and L) made of viscoelastic memory foam. Sennheiser engineers also took into account the fact that the ear canals people can have different lengths, so the design of the headphone sound outlet provides two positions for installing the ear tips so that the user can use them to achieve optimal sealing and sound isolation of the channel and, ultimately, perfect bass sound.

And given the fact that every detail is of great importance on stage, even the cables of these headphones are designed anew and in a new way. Their internal cable channels and connectors are unique to Sennheiser (patent pending). Simply put, with your new IE 500 PRO monitors, you can work comfortably on any stage and with any workload. They will definitely last!
