The HD 820’s exterior retains is signature metal aesthetic and is covered mostly in Gorilla Glass as a function to reduce resonance into specific absorber chambers. Its earpads are a mix of synthetic leather and microfiber for isolation. It also uses a 4.4mm audio plug as opposed to the traditional 3.5mm for minimal distortion. Purchase Sennheiser’s HD 820 headphones early this summer and stay tuned for more CES news as it unfolds.
