After the break Wayne took the stage and started with a brief history of Professor Sennheiser and the development of his range of headsets.
Australia has a long link with Sennheiser. An Australian Mr Cunningham was the first buyer of the Professor’s newly created microphones.
Recently Sennheiser partnered with William Demenant Holdings to form Sennheiser Communications.
William Demenant is a Dutch Company specializing in hearing aids. Wayne explained that the expertise in miniaturization that the company brought to the partnership has created a new range of light weight acoustically clear earphones and headsets. We then went on to look at the variety of headsets Sennheiser has from simple ear buds to top of the range professional mics and fold back headsets.
