- Sennheiser announced an autonomous micro-boom accessory
- It is compatible with a selection of its headphones
- Target players and for work, it will cost $ 59.95 / £ 39.99
The players who swear by the audio from Sennheiser rejoice! The Audiophile brand has revealed the HD 500 BAM, a boom -arm microphone that can transform a number of its headphones into a game helmet – or something perfect for productivity when you work at home.
Players like me who want a solution or an option “All Sennheiser” will now have a real way to form a Sennheiser game helmet.
Recognizing what the lack of microphone meant for these players so far, the Director of Audiophile Project, Klaus Hanselmann, said: “The players welcomed the prolonged comfort and the immersive listening that their headphones in the 500 series bring, but the absence of a microphone option meant a compromise”.
The microphone itself is a “10 mm electret condenser capsule with a cardioid collection model” and Sennheiser declares that it will produce “an exceptional speech”. At the price of $ 59.95 / £ 39.99, it is a fairly affordable addition to an existing helmet configuration, and could be the missing part that audiophile players were looking for.
I have been using HD 500 BAM for a little over a week now, in combination with my Sennheiser HD 550S. This is a simple plug-and-play solution that replaces the existing cable with the one that offers a Splitter Y for use by a sound card, or a combi-jack connection to go directly to a controller, for example.
The performances have been predictable robust with my voice traveling in a grove and clear, it doesn’t matter if it is a meeting or an intense online match. Its simple Mic mute button and its combination of on -board control volume wheels means that there is no complication on the complication here when it comes to using the microphone. As a high quality meaning to keep my HD 550S for multiplayer games, this is very accomplished as a game product.
It looks like Sennheiser again tests playwater, which is incredibly exciting, given the absence of the brand in the playing space since the company’s playing arm was first transformed into EPO, then completely disappeared.
Until then, the HD 500 BAM represents the simplest solution for those who are currently juggling with several devices, but those who simply want to use and appreciate their Sennheiser’s compatible headphones as much as possible.
The HD 500 BAM is compatible with the following headphones:
- HD 505
- HD 550
- HD 560
- HD 569
- HD 599
- HD 599
- HD 620S
The microphone is also released now, and when it appears in retailers, you will see the latest prices to be adapted to those of the liftings compatible below.
