Das 416 befindet sich Technisch in einwandfreiem Zustand. Ich habe es sehr selten genutzt und damals als ein Ausstellungsstück erworben. Inklusive ist auch ein passender Popschutz und das Originalcase. Bei Fragen gerne schreiben.

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

Are you getting a real 416 workhorse at a sensible price, or paying too much for a very common pro shotgun? At €580, this looks fair to good rather than a steal: used MKH 416 P48 listings I’d typically expect to sit in roughly the €500–€700 band depending on age, cosmetics, and included bits, so this is comfortably in the normal range for an excellent example with accessories.

The reason to buy is simple: the 416 is still a benchmark for speech, dialog, and location work because it’s compact, highly directional, and famously rugged, with the kind of consistent intelligibility that keeps it in demand decades after launch. If the included cables/accessories are genuinely useful and the mic is clean, that adds real value; at this price, a well-kept, complete set feels like a solid buy for anyone who actually needs the classic 416 sound.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About Sennheiser

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.
