Fun for your ears: two new mini headphones from Sennheiser

Ultra-light, stylish and with superb sound. The two new mini stereo headphones, the PX 90 and PMX 90, are so comfortable that you might even forget you are wearing them – if it weren’t for their full-bodied sound with powerful bass. The two supra-aural models are the ideal companion for all those who like to be on the move – whether they are hitting the city streets, skating or enjoying some other outdoor activities.
    

The mini headphones with their powerful sound are specially designed for use with MP3 players, iPods* and other portable players. “Weighing just 52 and 90 grams, the two new models are ultra-light, making them comfortable to wear even after hours of use,” explained product manager Rajender Mogili. Rappers and halfpipe artists will love them not only for their superb sound: their ergonomic design ensures that the headphones fit securely at all times and stay in place no matter how fast you move. The PX 90 is a headband model equipped with a sturdy but nevertheless flexible metal headband. The PMX 90 features a comfortable neckband and a single-sided cable that offers the user excellent freedom of movement.
  

Both mini headphones guarantee a detailed, lifelike sound image with punchy bass that is far superior to the sound offered by many headphones that are included with players. Their frequency response ranges from 20 to 20,000 Hertz.
 

The PX 90 and PMX 90 will be supplied to Sennheiser sales partners from September.
