Sennheiser HD25 25th Anniversary Edition!

[Randius]

To commemorate the 25th anniversary of HD25, Sennheiser had announced the special edition of HD25, based on the very popular and well-received HD25-I II. Earcups and certain parts of the headphone will be made with aluminium for enhanced durability. Scheduled to be available in early August and price is around 420 SGD.

This is confusing... HD25 Aluminium and Sennheiser Amperior which has aluminium body, will it be the same thing?

It's a similar build to the amperior. However, unlike the amperior's 16 ohm impedence, the anniversary edition's drivers retain the same 70ohm impedance that the hd25-1 consists of

Yup... hoping it will sound better. =) 70 ohms would still work well with my DX100... and maybe in the future the AK100!

Tried before AK100 but not AK120...

Back to topic on the HD 25 anniversary model, really hope to see it as an improvement to the Amperior...
