Just in time for CES, Sennheiser announced earlier today that they are releasing a “Professional” headphone series with three different models of ear-canal/IEM headphones designed for great sound quality in a portable format. The three different models are aimed at different users.

The IE 6 is touted as a set for bass enthusiasts with background noise attenuation of up to 20 dB and a rated frequency response of 10 Hz to 18,000 Hz. The IE 6 comes in silver and black.

The IE 7 is touted as the “neutral” offering from Sennheiser. The IE 7 has a rated frequency response of 10 Hz to 19,000 Hz with up to 20 dB of attenuation. The IE 7 comes in all black decorum.

The IE 8 is rated for 10 Hz to 20,000 Hz with up to 26 dB of attenuation. As a cool add-on, the IE 8 has a small adjustable screw on the outer piece of the headphones that allows you to make small adjustments to low frequency response to suit your needs.

The IE 6 and IE 7 will be available in stores in March 2008, while the IE 8 will be available in April 2008. These look to be a good improvement on the popular CX-300’s from a very popular headphone company with years of experience.
