New Dimensions in Sound

Art has always been an inspiring force that stretches and pushes the boundaries of the present into the future. Continuously challenging the status quo in audio, Sennheiser will be presenting its vision to Shape the Future of Audio at Art Basel, the prestigious international series of art fairs. Just announced as the “Official Audio Partner” of Art Basel by Sennheiser’s co-CEOs Daniel and Andreas Sennheiser, the audio specialist invites visitors to step into new dimensions of sound.

At Sennheiser’s Future Sound Cube, visitors can journey into the ultimate experience of sound, immersed in an innovative 3D audio world unlike anything they have encountered before – and get a rare chance to listen to the world’s best headphones, the new Sennheiser HE 1, successor to the legendary Orpheus. The audio specialist will also launch the Future Audio Artists Program to bring to life new works from some of the world’s most exciting sound artists.

“The vision to Shape the Future of Audio is in our company’s DNA, it is our mission,” said Daniel Sennheiser, co-CEO, Sennheiser. “Our culture of innovation has resulted in iconic, era-defining products. With the launch of the new Sennheiser HE 1 last year, we have created the best headphones in the world – the purest distillation of our knowledge and passion for the ultimate sound. This is our art. And like the greatest art, it places you in a unique space where emotion and inspiration are possible – it can’t be easily explained, but has to be experienced and felt. The idea to ‘Shape the Future of Audio’ is not about describing a concept for leadership in sound, but giving people the ability to experience sound as never before.”

The choice of the Art Basel shows in Hong Kong, Basel and Miami Beach as platforms for this vision is particularly significant, as Daniel Sennheiser explains: “Art has always been about pushing forward the status quo and redefining boundaries for the future. It changes our world and the way we perceive it. This is how Sennheiser  defines leadership in audio – the creation of new possibilities and profound new ways of experiencing.”

Future Sound Cube is an entirely unique space for audio-visual artworks, the Future Sound Cube sets the stage for a once-in-a-lifetime sensory experience – an encounter with a new dimension in audio, powered by AMBEO, Sennheiser’s groundbreaking 3D Immersive Audio technology, and a chance to get up close and personal with something utterly extraordinary, the Sennheiser HE 1.
