Gaming at CeBIT with Sennheiser Communications
11.03.2004 Copenhagen

Headset specialist Sennheiser Communications and Shuttle Inc., world market leader in the mini PC sector, will present top-quality gaming at this year?s CeBIT. Sennheiser Communications is to equip the gaming area at the Shuttle stand with its USB headsets. The highlights will be the battles between the top clans Adrenaline and Schroet Kommando, both sponsored by Sennheiser Communications and Shuttle.

Hardware specialist Shuttle Inc. presents top-quality gaming in its gaming area at Stand 26A in Hall 22. The latest premium headsets by Sennheiser Communications will ensure the right sound experience. Professional players and interested visitors can test both companies? products and experience them in practical use. The highlight will be the battle between two top teams in the gaming area: the internationally successful clans Schroet Kommando and Adrenaline. Visitors will be able to watch the games on a video projection screen.

Both teams at CeBIT will use Sennheiser Communications PC 155 USB headsets. Sennheiser Communications sponsors not only Adrenaline but also, as of March 2004, Schroet Kommando. Specialising in the multiplayer games ?Counter Strike?, ?Warcraft 3? and ?FIFA?, Schroet Kommando is one of the top clans in the gaming world. This means that Sennheiser Communications now has sponsorship agreements with two top clans.

The PC 155 USB provides ideal gaming conditions. Thanks to the USB adapter with integrated soundcard chip, the headset is a genuine plug-n-play tool that does not rely on a soundcard installed in the PC. The noise canceling microphone filters out annoying background noise, and the generously dimensioned ear cushions exclude ambient noise. The headset?s clear three-dimensional surround sound enables players to respond faster and more precisely. ?Sennheiser Communications make superb-quality headsets that meet our requirements exactly. They allow us to raise the level of our game still further,? says Andreas Thorstensson alias ?bds?, one of the heads of Schroet Kommando.

In the short space of only a year, Sennheiser Communications has become firmly established in the gaming world. Maurice Quarré, Product Marketing Manager, is delighted with the situation: ?By sponsoring Schroet Kommando and Adrenaline, we now have contracts with two top clans. With their feedback we always have our finger on the pulse of the market. That helps us to better cater to gamers? growing demands.?

The gaming headsets will not be alone at CeBIT: all the latest headsets for multimedia, office and contact center use will be on display at the Sennheiser Communications stand.
