HD 820  |  

English

The Sennheiser HD 820 opens up new tonal horizons and takes you into a 

world full of musicality, passion and emotions – regardless of whether you 

enjoy your favorite music at home or on the go.
After extensive research and development work, our engineers have 

succeeded in bringing the best of both worlds together – the HD 820 com-

bines, without compromise, the transparency and naturalness of the best 

open-back headphones with the sovereignty and serenity of closed-back 

systems.
The trend-setting design of the HD 820 not only effectively reduces am-

bient noise, but also ensures an ultra-low bass reproduction and a clear 

reproduction of mids. This is possible due the HD 820's patent-pending 

acoustic diffraction housing – recognizable by the two glass panes behind 

the transducers. 
Extremely stiff, convex elements made of Gorilla glass and shaped using 

a specially developed process specifically direct the sound, which is  

emanated from the diaphragm towards the rear, into dampened cham-

bers. Therefore, reflected sound waves have virtually no chance of 

disturbing the movement of the HD 820's advanced 56 mm transducers 

and of compromising the precision of the audio reproduction. 
To ensure perfect sound quality and ultimate wearing comfort, our de-

velopers have carefully thought through every detail of the headphones. 

The crucial parts of the headphones are made from advanced materials – 

materials that are also used in the aerospace industry for their low weight 

and high stability.
Due to its double-shell construction, the housing of the Sennheiser HD 820 

is extremely lightweight and stiff. The headphone yokes guarantee a 

lasting, comfortable fit and are the result of complex mechanical strength 

simulations and field tests. The supplied connection cables ensure perfect 

contact between the headphones and any source device, be it mobile or 

stationary. 
The unique quality of these headphones is guaranteed and backed by our 

name. Each Sennheiser HD 820 is therefore delivered with a signed chart 

providing its individually measured frequency response curve and serial 

number. 
Technology-wise, the HD 820 breaks fresh ground and, with its powerful, 

neutral and transparent sound, sets a new benchmark for closed-back 

headphones.

Unique: The state-of-the art 56 mm ring 
radiator transducers are the largest ever 
used in headphones.

Perfect: The consistently balanced 
connections ensure reliable signal 
transmission to the transducers.

Extraordinary: The Gorilla glass directs 
sound waves into dampened chambers 
and drastically reduces distortion.
