This is a seller’s market for this category at the moment, and this asking price is wildly above the local used benchmark. Against recent EUR comparables, €17,900 sits far beyond the €354 75th percentile and is not just ambitious but in a completely different tier from the usual €297–€354 range.
That means the real question is whether this is a collector-grade, museum-quality, or otherwise exceptional example rather than a normal used buy. The Orpheus name carries real prestige and is one of Sennheiser’s most coveted halo products, so rarity and condition can matter a lot—but at this level, a buyer should want impeccable provenance, full completeness, and proof that every critical piece is present and working.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Founded in June 1945 by Dr. Fritz Sennheiser in a farmhouse near Hanover, Germany, Sennheiser began as Laboratorium Wennebostel, producing voltmeters and early microphones amid post-World War II reconstruction. Seven engineers from the University of Hannover joined the founder, quickly pivoting to broadcast microphones like the DM 2 in 1946 and the groundbreaking MD 82 shotgun mic in 1956. Renamed Sennheiser electronic in 1958, the family-owned company passed to second- and third-generation leadership, maintaining its innovative spirit over eight decades.
Sennheiser excels in professional and consumer audio, renowned for microphones, wireless systems, and headphones that set industry standards. Pioneers of the first open-back headphones (HD 414 in 1968) and enduring studio icons like the MD 421 and MD 441, they also produce high-end headphones, earbuds, soundbars, and conferencing solutions. While strong in pro audio like mixers and geophysical gear, their consumer focus centers on headphones and wireless tech rather than amplifiers, speakers, turntables, DACs, or cables.
Sennheiser commands a premium position in the hi-fi market, blending mid-tier accessibility with high-end excellence for discerning buyers and professionals. Trusted for reliability and sonic precision, it appeals to audiophiles seeking reference-grade headphones without boutique obscurity, backed by a heritage of technological firsts that sustains its global leadership.
