Sennheiser announced the launch of its CX 80U in-ear wired headphones and HD 400U over-ear headphones in India, designed to deliver high-quality, lossless sound through a simple, reliable plug-and-play experience.
With no need for pairing or charging, the new range caters to a growing segment of users seeking dependable audio solutions for work, entertainment, and gaming.
Optimized for High-Quality Digital Audio
The CX 80U and HD 400U support up to 24-bit and 96 kHz digital audio playback, enabling direct, high-resolution sound with minimal latency. This makes them particularly suited for video streaming, gaming, and professional applications.
The wired format also brings key advantages for today’s consumers—enhanced privacy, zero latency for gaming and content consumption, and a more sustainable design without the need for batteries. As digital wellbeing and intentional tech choices gain traction, wired audio is making a strong comeback among professionals, creators, and Gen Z users alike.
Built on Proven Design, now with USB-C
The HD 400U builds on the legacy of the HD 400S, known for its bass-driven acoustics and everyday portability. Its closed-back, over-ear design provides effective passive noise isolation, making it suitable for focused listening at home, work, or school. A lightweight build, detachable cable, and included storage pouch ensure convenience for users on the move.
The CX 80U continues the legacy of the CX 80S, offering a compact in-ear design with balanced, punchy sound. It provides effective noise isolation and includes three sizes of soft ear tips for a secure and comfortable fit, whether commuting, working, or enjoying music on the go.
Effortless Control, Seamless Compatibility
Both the CX 80U and HD 400U come equipped with an in-line smart remote and MEMS microphone, enabling users to manage calls, control music, and access voice assistants with ease.
With universal USB-C connectivity, the devices are compatible with a wide range of platforms including Android smartphones, tablets, laptops, and PCs, ensuring a seamless plug-and-play experience across everyday devices.
Designed for Everyday Listening
As consumers increasingly adopt multi-device lifestyles, there is a growing demand for audio solutions that are simple, reliable, and consistent. Wired audio is seeing renewed relevance
among professionals, creators, and younger users who value uninterrupted performance and ease of use.
“As the ecosystem transitions rapidly towards USB-C, we are seeing a renewed relevance for wired audio, driven by the need for simplicity, reliability, and consistent performance. In a market like India, where consumers are increasingly using multiple devices across work, entertainment, and gaming, there is a growing preference for solutions that just work, without the friction of charging or connectivity interruptions. With the CX 80U and HD 400U, we are bringing together Sennheiser’s signature sound with the ease of plug-and-play listening, enabling users to stay fully immersed in their audio experience,” said Saahil Kumar, General Manager, Sonova Consumer Hearing, India.
