Closed-back headphones for daily listening

The Sennheiser HD 400S is a wired over-ear headphone built for music, calls and work. Its closed-back cups give passive noise reduction so ambient sound stays low without active electronics. The 18-ohm impedance lets phones, laptops and tablets drive them to useful volume without an extra amplifier. Foldable hinges and a 7.65-ounce weight make them practical for commuting and travel.

Simple plug-in setup with detachable cable

Connect the supplied cable to the 2.5-millimetre jack on the earcup and the 3.5-millimetre plug to your device; no drivers or pairing are required. The inline one-button remote handles play, pause, track skip and call answer on most smartphones. A common issue is that some Android handsets interpret the remote signals differently, so volume or skip may not respond on every model.

18-ohm impedance matches portable sources

The single figure that decides compatibility is the 18-ohm input impedance. It ensures adequate loudness from low-voltage outputs such as phone headphone sockets or laptop jacks. If your source needs a higher-impedance load or you require a balanced connection, this model will not suit that need.
