75 years of making unforgettable sound experiences

Since its foundation, Sennheiser has always been driven by a fascination for innovation. That pioneering ethos was passed on from one generation to the next. When our grandfather Fritz Sennheiser founded Sennheiser in 1945, he started a venture which would be called a start-up today. It didn't start in a garage - like the usual start-up story does - but in this farmhouse near Hanover. When people visit our headquarters - where you can still find this farmhouse - you can feel the passion for sound and the desire for new ideas , said Dr. Andreas Sennheiser.

Prof. Dr. Fritz Sennheiser soon discovered fast-growing business opportunities, using the knowledge and skills that he gained in his prior scientific career to respond to a high demand for measuring devices and microphones. In 1947, Lab W entered the audio world with the launch of its first self-developed microphone. This was just the start of a story of innovation and the pursuit of new ideas. The first shotgun microphone followed in 1956 and ten years later the first open-type headphone, the HD 414 revolutionized the market.

The 1980s marked the starting point for the internationalization of the family business under the management of Prof. Dr. J rg Sennheiser. The first sales subsidiary, Sennheiser France, was founded. Nowadays, Sennheiser has 21 subsidiaries worldwide. During this period, even more product highlights were created, most notably including the creation of the world's best headphone - the legendary Orpheus - in 1991. Numerous patents and awards in its 75 years history - including an Emmy, a Grammy, a Scientific and Engineering Award of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and the Engineering Emmy s Philo T. Farnsworth Award - prove that customers and experts alike acknowledge Sennheiser's groundbreaking technology and innovative spirit.

Since 2013 Dr. Andreas Sennheiser and Daniel Sennheiser lead the independent family company as co-CEOs. Jointly they follow Sennheiser's vision to shape the future of audio, One thing has remained the same over all those years and that is our dissatisfaction with the status quo, that is always pushing us further. And to know that you have a team - a crew - equipped to make magic moments happen, no matter how challenging the production ,
