Sennheiser Communications A/S Gaming Division Splits Off To become EPOS

Uskompuf · Jul 9, 2020

Sennheiser is well regarded in the audio space and has released several popular GSP series gaming headsets such as the GSP 670. These headsets were manufactured, sold, and serviced by Sennheiser Communications A/S which was formed as a joint venture between Sennheiser and Demant in 2003. This joint venture will be coming to an end in 2020 and will involve Sennheiser absorbing the Mobile Music headsets division while the Enterprise Solutions and Gaming headsets will evolve as a new independent company EPOS, fully owned by Demant. EPOS will manufacture and sell the existing Sennheiser Communications portfolio for Enterprises, and Gaming co-branded as EPOS | SENNHEISER products, while also introducing a new EPOS branded portfolio.

EPOS has recently launched a new "global gaming campaign" to promote their brand as they prepare to release their first major EPOS-only branded gaming product in October 2020. The new campaign is headlined by a new flashy short film by Academy Award-winning Danish director Anders Walter which focuses on "Out of this world gaming audio". The new company is headquartered in Copenhagen Denmark and operates in a global market with offices and partners in over 30 countries.

You gotta be pulling my leg? What am I supposed to guess the name stands for? A POS is a POS, no? The extra E not withstanding.

And it will be too,.... :laugh:

EDIT: To be fair about it, I have to say that I own a pair of Sennheiser Cans that sound wonderful. (and have sounded great for many years)
I bought them on sale for about half of the retail price and never looked back.
