Step into a new dimension of sound
The new SoHo store has been designed to transport visitors sonically and visually: Stepping into the store guests enter via the sound tunnel, which has been carefully engineered to damp external noise levels bit by bit – making the buzz of the city
streets outside recede as you go further inside. This transition in sound is complemented by what you see. The tunnel brings visitors into an area where large screens show the company’s core: the Sennheiser logo, a milestone product from the company’s 70-year history and Sennheiser’s vision to shape the future of audio. “We would like to invite New Yorkers on a journey, letting them literally step into the world of Sennheiser,” explains Dennis Wendt, Director Direct Sales at Sennheiser. “The process of entering the store is an evocative way to communicate the story of our brand’s rich heritage and innovative drive via the experience”.
The store itself is divided into dedicated zones, a 2,150 ft2 public area dedicated to listening experiences and retail, a 540 ft2 showroom for professional solutions. Premium models on display will include the brand new PXC 550 wireless travel headphones, and the HD 1 Wireless – headphones with MOMENTUM. Sennheiser will also show audiophile products such as the HD 800 S headphones and HDVD 800 headphone amplifier as well as the IE 800 in-ear headphones. In addition to its consumer products, Sennheiser will present solutions for the customers in the field of professional audio including the AVX and evolution wireless D1 microphone systems and business communications such as the TeamConnect Wireless.
The highlight of the sound experience is the Sound Temple – a unique space for total immersion in unprecedented audio excellence within the store. Here, visitors can hear some of Sennheiser’s latest innovations and high end audio products, such as the audio specialist’s AMBEO 3D audio technology. The Sound Temple will also offer rare opportunities to listen to the iconic HE 1, the best headphones in the world. “We want to give customers the opportunity to hear the difference and feel the excitement for the Sennheiser Sound themselves,” explains Dennis Wendt.
