But with competition stiff – the company was forced to cut 650 jobs last year – it seems that Sennheiser Consumer needs some extra financial clout to achieve its full "growth potential."The company says talks with potential partners will "start shortly". One name that's cropped up a few times is Google. It's nothing more than a rumour at this stage, but the sale could be the tech titan's best opportunity to acquire a 'proper' audio business – just as Apple acquired Beats for $3.2 billion in 2014.<a href="https://www.whathifi.com/news/sennheiser-could-sell-its-consumer-audio-business" target="_blank">https://www.whathifi.com/news/sennheiser-could-sell-its-consumer-audio-business</a></blockquote>
