First introduced at CES in January of 2008, the latest lineup of high end, dynamically driven earphones from Sennheiser consists of the IE 6, IE 7 and IE 8. Released later in March, the IE 6 is specially designed for bass lovers and is described as best suited to fans of contemporary rock and pop. With isolation up to 26dB and frequency response of 10 to 18,000Hz, this model is ideal for individuals interested in stepping up in performance as well as isolation from stock buds which are often poor quality, dull sounding and let too much outside noise in. Packaged with a cleaning tool, transport case and a cable clip, the IE 6 features kevlar coated cables and reinforced body materials to increase the durability and lifespan of the earphones.
