Sennheiser is releasing a special edition of its Momentum headphones – the HD 1 Wireless edition celebrating The Pink Floyd Exhibition – Their Mortal Remains.
The headphones will be launched to commemorate the first retrospective of the legendary rock band by London’s Victoria and Albert Museum. As the official audio partner of The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains, which opened on 13th May, Sennheiser has created a fully immersive 3D audio experience that brings to life sights, sounds and memorabilia from the band’s career.
The special edition HD1 headphones have been customised with a unique look in tribute to the groundbreaking 1973 classic LP The Dark Side of the Moon. The leather covering the stainless steel headband features rainbow coloured stitching that mirrors the visual spectrum on the album’s iconic cover; the ear cups also have a new pearlescent rainbow sheen and are engraved with the Pink Floyd prism symbol, whilst a special Their Mortal Remains exhibition name plate finishes off the ultra-exclusive design.
“It is a true pleasure to mark this major cultural event with a dedicated new version of the Momentum that celebrates both design and an enduring love of music. This is also a wonderful way to continue our history as a company working with Pink Floyd,” commented Daniel Sennheiser, co-CEO of Sennheiser, making reference to the band’s use of Sennheiser and Neumann audio equipment throughout their career.
“This project epitomises our commitment to support the artists and engineers that record, stage and perform music,” added Dr. Andreas Sennheiser, co-CEO of Sennheiser. “And no less importantly, it represents the fans that enjoy the work of artists – whether in the shared experience of a concert hall or in the cherished private worlds we can experience with a set of headphones.”
