Its because its so easy to go to any tech store and buy sennheisers instead of having to either go long ways to a specialized audio store or buy online

For me it is the fact that they have a long history of producing high quality reliable products. I baby my Sundaras in comparison because I do not have the same faith in a brand like Hifiman.

*Had. Sennheiser has sold their headphones division last year to some hearing aid company Sonova.

Implying they no longer have that history? The company is still run by the Sennheiser family. They actually had this to say about Sonova at time of sale:

“A partner who not only shares our passion for audio and a commitment to the highest product quality, but also very similar corporate values,” they write. “This is an excellent foundation for a successful future together.”

Will see what the new Sennheiser headphones lineup will be. Their recent wireless offers was pretty meh. So I don't really trust in corporate bullshit statement they have released.

Sorry. The Momentum 4 is an excellent sounding headphone. It is better than the wired HD600 for me. I do not feel there is any difference in wireless or wired sound at this point. Well done Sennheiser.

Sennheiser OG owns Neumann so the new NDH30 is from them

In fairness, it’s really hard to find any headphones that aren’t Bluetooth in an actual brick and mortar store these days
