Looks a lot like the Koss KSC-10 except with an adjustable headband. Well, I guess most "streestyle" headphones look the same anyway. The only thing I can gather from the press release (I don't know German) is that they are rated with a frequency response from 18Hz to 21KHz, seems to be intended for MP3 and CD players, suppossed to be lightweight, suppossed to have "clear and transparent" sound, and good bass.

I don't really like street styles that much; but it's nice to see sennheiser making these. Maybe they'll be packaged in with some non-sony portables (likely creative) and bring some decent sound to the masses.
It doesn't look like it's going to replace my portapro's as my portable headphones anyway (the eggo's will though

As far as my German goes:

They're intended for young trendy people with portable mp3 or cd players.
If you want something not that expensive that fits better and sounds better than the supplied headphones.
They costs about €30.

i personally do not like the headphones with behind the head bands. you cant use them while sleeping. and behind the head band phones are starting to look more stupid to me.

Yeah...there was this guy in Math who came in late while everyone was taking the test, sat down next to me, whipped out some streetstlyes, and started blasting music. I wanted to punch him or something...or at least throw his streetstyles out the window and tell him to get some decent closed phones

I find them very uncomfortable to wear, and yes, you can't use them while lying down. Plus I haven't heard any that sound very good. Maybe these Senns, like the Koss phones, will be an exception.
