Yes, the new Orpheus is scheduled to go on display in the Ultimate Sound Room at the Flagship Store at Sennheiser’s headquarters in Wedemark in February 2016. One can schedule an appointment for a private listening by emailing Orpheus@Sennheiser.com.
Rosmadi can you say anything about longevity testing?
This is just my opinion and please don't take it as a slight against Sennheiser. After I heard rumors that the original HE90 could no longer be serviced (including the Jan Meier designated sets) after what was less than 10 years of its new sale date that is what got me worried led to selling my pair.
If the new Orpheus can in fact be serviced for at least a couple of decades my interest would be reinvigorated. To this date I have never heard a headphone that can accurately reproduce the timbre of solo violin like the HE90 did.
