ShApiNg ThE FUTURE OF AUdiO

Shaping today the audio world of tomorrow - an ambition that Sennheiser and its employees live by from day to day. This vision statement describes what the company hopes to achieve and this foundation is its history, culture of innovation and its continuing passion for excellence.

AN OUTSTANdiNg LEgACy

Throughout its history, Sennheiser has been driven by a passion for sound; a passion that has never diminished in over 70 years. From modest beginnings in 1945, through to its present day, the family-owned German company has built a truly global profile.

Faced with the technological deficiencies of existing products, Professor Dr Fritz Sennheiser devoted himself to finding innovative solutions in order to make the very best technology available to users everywhere. And ever since, the company has provided technological innovations that improve people’s lives – and the pursuit of perfect sound continues to this day.

The first Sennheiser microphones were developed by broadening the microphone theory. First launched in 1947, they were rapidly adopted by large numbers of artistes and professionals – musicians such as Louis Armstrong, singers like Edith Piaf and politicians such as Eisenhower and Kennedy, as well as broadcasters, radio stations and air-traffic controllers across the world.

Now more than 70 years later, professional musicians, sound engineers, presenters and singers throughout the world are in agreement that Sennheiser products are the pinnacle of technological perfection.
