For all those that like to travel or focus on work using noise-cancelling headphones, Sennheiser has introduced the PXC 480 high-performance wired travel headphone. The new model shares the essence of the recently launched Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless, without the restrictions of shorter battery life. According to Sennheiser, the PXC 480 offers NoiseGard hybrid active noise cancellation, excellent comfort and an impressive battery life of up to 50 hours, making it the perfect travel companion.
 

“Our new PXC 480 has been shaped around the needs of the discerning business traveller who demands a noise-cancelling headset that does not compromise on performance, style or features,” says Dr. Christian Ern, Head of Portfolio Management Select at Sennheiser. “Whether you want to focus on work, enjoy a movie or escape into music, it delivers an upgraded travel experience. The PXC 480 brings the essence of our PXC 550 Wireless to the wired realm.”
 
When not listening to music, the PXC 480’s NoiseGard can also be used to create an oasis of calm whenever needed, simply by detaching the cable. There is also a TalkThrough feature that makes it easy to hear and talk to others without removing the headphone – ideal to hear announcements or speak to anyone close by. For the business traveller on the move, the PXC 480 can be used as a headset for staying connected: It features an inline smart remote and high-quality microphone that makes it convenient to use for clear phone calls.
 
Crafted from high-quality materials, the elegant PXC 480 is built to be at home in the premium environment of business class, while also being tough enough for a life on the go. It offers supreme comfort thanks to its minimal weight and its earpads that have been designed in accordance with Sennheiser's dedicated research into the ergonomics of the human ear.

The fold-flat, collapsible design of the PXC 480 makes it easy to discretely store in the supplied travel case. The headphones also come with a USB cable and IFE adaptors. Sennheiser’s new PXC 480 was unveiled at IFA 2016 in Berlin, and will be available from November 2016.
