Hello Head-Fi!

@ericpalonen will be going live on TikTok tomorrow at 3pm New York Time. It will be a lighthearted and rapid-fire session where we talk about some recent releases, host a giveaway, and have some Q&A as we go. Those looking to get a start on holiday shopping won't want to miss it. We hope to do more live sessions in the future, eventually becoming a regular hangout. We hope you can join!

Will there be any announcements regarding the progress and official release date
of the successor to the Sennheiser HD 800 headphones, the - Sennheiser HD900 ? :L3000:
I find it highly unlikely that Sennheiser would announce such big news during a "lighthearted and rapid-fire session" on TikTok...
One could hope, but I really don't think that is what this session will be about 😊

One could, however, reasonably expect them to announce they're branching out to make time pieces

Why on TikTok?

When I read the announcement, my brain immediately reminded me of this. :sweat_smile:

This morning I couldn't find the cable for the Sennheiser headphones--- that's a bad omen before today's session.
I conclude that we will hear an announcement of the new version of the Sennheiser Momentum ...5 wireless BT headphones! :face_palm:

No sir

Correct, we are going to talk about recent releases, highlight some deals, and field questions if there are any.

You figured it out!
Can’t wait to hear out and discuss features of 10 years old products.
MTW4 is from 10 years ago? 🧐
Why on TikTok?

We have over a half million followers over there, so why not?
I infer, at least what it seems like, there was a Q&A on another platform all along and this is simply to let head-fi members know about it
Yes, just keeping everyone in the loop in case they want to join. We're not abandoning head-fi anytime, ever.
My personal opinion is that TikTok is not the platform widely used by the audience present here on Head-Fi.
In fact, I do not use TikTok. Maybe it's just me...
The audience here and there has a minimal overlap (but some), but 600k+ followers over there want to know what's going on as well (in a different format than this)

Nope! Just a current events catch-up, a few deals, a giveaway perhaps, and answering some questions. It's light and fast paced so if that's not your cup of tea then all good we will see you in the forums instead 👍

Thank You - It was an interesting and professional meeting that you led.

He somewhat evaded answering the questions I asked:
1.Is there a chance that the LDAC codec will appear in your wireless products?
Maybe it is due to licensing restrictions?

2.Your products are of the highest quality.
I am their fan, but I also buy, test and change audio equipment like everyone else.
Do you not see the problem with counterfeits flooding the market (IE200,600,900)?
Purchase in an authorized store - of course.
But once you buy and want to change the Sennheiser IE 200 to 600 to 900 model to a higher
one will stay with him for the rest of his life, because you can't prove its legality never resell it.
You used to have a dedicated website for checking legality - why did you stop doing that?

I am awestruck that a brand like Sennheiser has 600K+ followers on TikTok out of all places. Good on Eric for taking care of brand image on this platform as well.
If Sennheiser has this, then just imagine how many people are following the mainstreamest of brands possible. I wouldn't know, as I've never stepped foot into the brainrot zone.
TikTok really is digital crack. 🤡

Any mentioning of new flagship replacement for HD800s lines?

If that day ever arrives we would get the full fireworks of Jude on camera with measurements, "so 3 months ago Sennheiser approached me..."
