Open-Ear Audio Performance Earbuds

The Sennheiser Accentum Clip Maximizes Bass and More

The Sennheiser Accentum Clip open-ear earbuds have been debuted but the brand as its latest entrant into the mobile audio market that aims to change perceptions for the headphone style.

The earbuds are engineered to take on the challenges associated with open-style audio accessories that allow users to listen without obstructed ears. The clip-style headphones thus feature 12mm dynamic drivers rated by the brand to maximize clarity, enhance overall bass performance and achieve smooth treble. The earbuds also have the Dynamic EQ feature that will adjust the sound output to deliver a more consistent listening experience.

The Sennheiser Accentum Clip open-ear earbuds might be focused on higher-quality audio, but still maintain the best attributes of open-style headphones. This includes a 6.8-gram weight for each bud, a flexible silicone arch to keep them comfortably in place and an IP54 rating.
