Source: sennheiser.com (verified 2026-07-07) · corroborated by newsroom.sennheiser.com. sennheiser.com product page (Article No. 700065) accessed 2026-07-07 confirmed via its Tech Specs table: transducer type "Pre-polarised condenser", pickup pattern "Cardioid", frequency range 20 to 20,000 Hz, sampling rates "44.1, 48 kHz", max SPL 125 dB SPL, plus features listing USB-C power, 3.5 mm headphone output, a soft-touch mute button with LED ring, and an included table stand with 1.2 m USB-C cable. The official Sennheiser newsroom press release (dated March 14, 2023) accessed 2026-07-07 corroborated all of the above and additionally supplied the sampling resolution ("16 Bit, 24 Bit"), the USB type-C (USB 2.0 Full Speed) connector, the 3/8" and 5/8" base connectors, and the US MSRP of $129 for the table-stand version. sample_rate_khz recorded as 48 and bit_depth as 24 (highest supported values), matching the catalog's existing max-value convention. Retailer pages (Sweetwater, Best Buy, Walmart) were all blocked (403 / timeout / CAPTCHA), so corroboration cites the second official Sennheiser page rather than a store. Re-verified 2026-07-08: both official pages re-fetched cleanly and every non-null spec, priceUsd, and releaseDate remains explicitly supported verbatim; the product page's "Connection: Wireless" field is a Sennheiser data-entry error (USB device) and was not used.
