Design for the senses – quality for individualists 
Crafted from the finest materials, the MOMENTUM Ivory fuses understated design with uncompromising sound performance. An elegant headband slider of brushed stainless steel provides maximum comfort and adjustability; while the headband and the ear cups worked from soft and supple leather of the finest quality ensure ultimate wearing comfort. With the new colour version, Sennheiser reimagines its clean design in a lighter tone.

Beneath its luxurious exterior, the MOMENTUM Ivory embodies a refusal to compromise on sound quality. Audio specialist Sennheiser has taken technologies from its high-end headphone range to ensure a natural, authentic and richly detailed sound.

Perfect combination of sound and style 
"The MOMENTUM family of headphones is going from strength to strength with the launch of this new edition of the MOMENTUM and the seven colours now available in the compact MOMENTUM On-Ear range," said Magdalene Tan, Product Manager at Sennheiser Consumer Electronics. "We have sought to achieve something new in the world of headphones by combining uncompromising sound quality with the finest materials, and a distinct, pure design. We've reimagined the concept of a contemporary, urban style with a classic, timeless feel." A unique, uncompromising approach that has proved successful with both critics and discerning music lovers alike.

Smarter design for smart devices  
The MOMENTUM Ivory includes a single-sided detachable cable with convenient in-line remote and microphone for Apple iDevices, for easy control of music playback and to make and receive calls on the go.
