Posted by JFunk on 15/06/2013 in Pro DJ Headphones, Reviews |

We have just take delivery of the new HD25 Aluminium. They are an updated version of the standard HD25-1 with a few tweaks o make them feel and sound better. They have the same earcups as the sennheiser amperior so they are machined from a solid block of aluminium which adds more rigidity and a little more mass to the earcups which improves the quality of the bass – a bit like the Uber moded HD25 below. They also have new pads which feel more like real leather and have more memory foam like padding to make them more comfortable and make a better seal. They also come with a nice zip up case to keep them in.

History

The HD 25s made their commercial debut in in 1988. They were originally developed for outside broadcasting, featuring rotatable capsules that were ideal for one-ear monitoring and offered impressive attenuation of background noise, while staying comfortable for long periods of use.
Soon the HD 25s would establish themselves as THE standard for sound recordings in film, broadcast and television, used by sound engineers for monitoring work.
With growing demand, Sennheiser introduced the HD 25 SP, a more affordable version for professional use with simplified magnets, copper inductor and reduced weight.
From 1989 to 2004 British Airways used the HD 25 BA for passengers on board their Concorde flights. Due to their excellent performance in high-noise environments, they were perfectly suited for passenger use on planes, blocking engine and wind noise with their closed design and secure fit. Music professionals and performers travelling in style took notice. Passengers liked them so much; they occasionally took the headphones with them.
From 2000 the headphones were increasingly seen behind the DJ decks of famous clubs. DJ fans include superstars such as Bob Sinclar, Luciano and QBert.
