About Sennheiser
Sennheiser is shaping the Future of Audio – a vision built on a 70-year history of innovation and a continued drive for excellence that is woven into our company’s DNA and culture. Around the world, our employees share this passion in the pursuit of the perfect sound, creating products that exceed expectations and set new benchmarks in audio.
IE 40 PRO
Dynamic in-ear monitoring headphones with precise sound at both low and high sound pressure levels; for maximum control on loud stages. Secure fit thanks to ergonomic design and a robust construction suitable for stage use.
- Did you know? Most IEM systems use multi-driver solutions derived from conventional hearing aids.
- IE 40 PRO is different; it uses a next generation dynamic single-driver; meaning the frequency range does not have to be split up into sections but remains harmonious as a whole.
Secure fit and high level of wearing comfort
Innovative single driver design enables a slim and ergonomic construction. The design has been optimized; checked against hundreds of ear shapes and redesigned for a universal fit using any of the three foam adapters.
For musicians, sound engineers and DJs
The advanced driver system brings a considerably expanded sound spectrum to the ears of musicians, sound engineers and DJs. Excellent shielding thanks to the optimized earpiece and flexible silicone and foam tips.
Improves the way you perform by enhancing the way you hear
A compact design combines a secure fit with excellent wearing comfort. It’s robust construction is designed to be suitable for the rigors of stage use from the connection to the cable duct.
Resonates easily even at maximum sound levels
Innovative, dynamic 10mm broadband transducer for powerful, precise monitoring. Dynamic driver system reduces acoustic stress factors through homogenous, distortion-free reproduction.
Reinvented down to the last detail

Small but mighty. Comfortable.Excellent shielding thanks to optimized earpiece and flexible silicone and foam tips. There are no distortions because the special diaphragm – unlike the more rigid drive principle of the multi-way drivers – resonates easily even at maximum sound levels. |

These are the only earphones I would say don't need an amp or dac. They sound good either way. It doesn't sound like much is missing. It sounds really balanced. I don't know how to describe it. Balanced with a clarity in treble bias.
For example on the song "Hey Jude" doesn't hurt when he says "Hey Jude" and the beat starts.
I also can't get over this: nothing is drowned out. Your instrumentals don't smash the vocals and the vocals don't get smashed by bass or instruments.
These go in your ears really deep. They come with many eartips for really any size: big or small. They come with a cleaning tool if you have waxy ears. They're really comfortable, but I want to stress they go really deep in your ear.
Yes they're great for everyday listening. Also keep in mind this is my experience and sound is a very subjective aspect. I made it to tell you how these stand between the IE 60 and IE 80. My answer is it's side by side with the IE80 for much less.
Symphonies/opera/chamber music: Wonderful wide sound stage with excellent separation and true to live performance sound.
Jazz: Intimate with good separation and clarity from all instruments
Vocals: Definitely leans towards mid and mostly treble.
Rock/Pop: Drums (especially cymbals) and vocals get the forefront.
Overall, the treble is emphasized and these are not the usual consumer "V" EQ with the bass more towards flat with quick response. In the end, it is about your personal taste. Musicians and audiophiles will enjoy the clarity offered at this low price point. Warmth is in the performance, not masked by the driver in any way. These are very light and comfortable. Seal with the silicone tips was best for me as with most IEM's and buds. I tried some comply tips that came with my RHA's and they add some warmth due to the foam and shape of the canal on the tip. The IE40 have their own detachable cable connector making them only compatible with Sennheiser cable and the earpieces not compatible with other cables.
I own the CX300-ii, RHA MA350, RHA MA390, RHA MA650 and Audio Technica AR3. I also tried the Shure SE215, Etymotic ER3SE and ER3XR, RHA T20 wireless, and One More Triple Driver. The Shure are warmer with more bass and offer a great balance for the price now including Bluetooth 5.0 that was excellent. Etymotic would be the winner for sound if I could stand the driver in my canal. They were too uncomfortable. I ended up with the RHA T20 wireless for the best of all worlds for clarity, soundstage and versatility with the option for various filters and wired or wireless ( I caught these marked $70 off).

I own several headphones than I can compare: Sony MDR-7506, MDR-7510, Sennheiser HD-25 (mk1), Sennheiser HD600. My test was run with an RME ADI-2 DAC.
First, i'm impressed with the value of this IEMs. The Sennheiser sound signature is here. It's quite comparble to the HD-25 in term of sound signature, maybe a little more room. However there are less punchy on the kicks and tiny bit less bass. But really, it sounds very close to the HD-25! I'm impressed.
Compared to the Shure SE215, I personally prefer the sound of the IE 40 Pros. The SE215 have too loud bass for me and do not sound as balanced and clear these ones.
The IE40 Pro are also smaller in the ear that is easier to fit and more comfortable.
However I have some durability concerns about the IE 40 Pro. I like the easy removable coax cable, but maybe too easy compared to the shure, it happened to me to diaconnect it by mistake already. Is this connector is suited for a lot of connections? This might be a concern for musicians in urge on stage.
Other than that, the build quality is great, on par with the se215.
The highs are quite good, but hisses on some specific samples, or voices pronouncing S.
They are marvellous and by all means money well spent.
