The top model of Sennheiser's StreetWear range, the HD-497 delivers crystal-clear, well-defined highs and absolute precision across the audible frequency spectrum. Sennheiser's Open-Aire (open-ear) design eliminates unwanted resonances, ensuring warm, natural, detailed sound. The HD-497 not only gives a brilliant performance on hi-fi systems, but brings portable players to life as well. It's ideally suited to all types of music. The headphone's 9-foot cord is detachable, so if it wears out you have only to replace the cord, not the headphone itself. The cord is made of oxygen-free copper for pure, long-lasting audio transmission.
