Looks like it folds now, has larger pads, I hope they tweaked the sound too !

 I hope they fixed the sound too
 

maybe you should change your perception? Thick and dark sound sig is good for intended purpose - outdoor use. Also, if someone has bass bleed problems with big momentums i suggest using EQ, minus few dB at 50 and 200 Hz makes them almost reference cans.

I changed my comment to be less offensive, no need to get hostile. Other than that the Momentum isn't thick sounding anyway.

Anyone know of a confirmed price? I am quite interested by these.

I love my momentum over ear cans. The noise isolation is the best I've found. Fortunately my ears do fit in the smaller cups. And since I'm excited about the 2nd generation momentums, I emailed sennheiser directly about the M2.

Here is what they said:

The second generation MOMENTUM have been released and will be available for purchase in the coming weeks.

The first generation MOMENTUM ear pads measure approximately 3.5 inches top to bottom and 2.75 inches side to side. The padding is approximately 0.75 inches thick so the interior cavity is approximately 2.25 inches top to bottom and 1.75 inches side to side. The second generation MOMENTUM ear pads are larger and are approximately 0.25 inches taller and wider so the interior cavity is bigger and will completely enclose the ear.

Subbed.

 
 
Loved everything about the original Momentums other than their sound quality.  Too laid back and borderline muddy.
 
Hope these are an improvement in the SQ Dept.

Looks like they haven't changed the sound then? Other than indirect sound differences with larger earcups... The online driver specs looks same as the original Momentum as well.

Won't know for sure 'til I hear 'em for myself.

Guess until then we won't know. But I have my doubts... mostly in the highs, not sure how much more that driver has to give with reworked damping for example.

Momentum on left - Momentum M2 on right
 
The M2 appears to be a complete redesign (bigger ear cups, thicker ear pads, etc), not just a cosmetic refresh, so Sennheiser could easily have re-voiced them as well.
 
We shall see.....

With extra info...
Those wireless Momentum noise canceling look mighty tempting, especially if they sound same to regular momentum!! Next best sounding noise canceling headphones?!

 

[storrgie]

There are many saying they will be at the same price point.

Hi, I haven't tested the old momentum, but I am wondering how will these sound over BT...

 

[sebastien1]

Is there a momentum M2 on ear?
