communication market, bringing to bear all their experience in industrial headsets,
Hi-Fi headphones, wireless systems and world-beating microphones.

today, MacBook users needed a
USB soundcard, to use a
headset, now they can just plug
the 3.5 mm jack into their MacBook or MacBook Pro* to experience superb Sennheiser
audio quality on music and have crystal clear voice chats with their friends over
iChat, Skype or any VoIP Software.

Due to the changes to the latest generation of Apple's best selling MacBook line,
the MM headsets can not only be use to communicate via a MacBook but users
can also use the mute button to control basic audio functions on iTunes, iPhone
and the latest iPods. Even the recording of voice memos on the latest iPods is now
