With gold being all the craze, the Monster 24K Headphones have decided to join in on the action and we must say, these are pretty dope. As you can see the all new headphones come in an all-gold color with hip-hop artist Meek Mill being a collaborator with the project. They feature Monster’s 24K™ sound, DJ-style swiveling padded ear cups with plush cushions and in-line audio controls. Look for the new all-gold headphones to release on December 15 and you can pre-order them now.
We are amazed at the upcycling ideas that have come forth over the past few years, and to add to that innovation are the Bushmills x Grado Labs Headphone. These newly released, limited edition headphones are handmade from recycled white oak that was once used by whiskey makers of Bushmills Distillery in Ireland. They pack a legendary Grado sound, feature a vented back design, a custom brown leather headband and come in pretty cool wooden box. What more could you possibly ask for from a whiskey-meets-audio collaboration?
Going cable free is definitely the way to be and it seems like the Beats by Dre Studio Wireless headphones are finally hopping on the bandwagon. It features the same minimalist design as its wired older brother and features built-in Bluetooth capabilities that extend up to 30 feet. So, when you’re in the studio hittin’ those highs and lows – you’ll have plenty of space to keep your body movin’. Pick up the new Beats by Dre in an array of colorways, but I think we are gonna have to go with the matte black. They drop later this year, so patience!
Low-pro trying to innovate the game is the Sony 3-In-1 Walkman. Yes, a 2013 version of the Walkman, but it’s actually pretty damn cool. These brand new, all-in-one version of a headphone feature a built-in MP3 player, along with built-in external speakers so all of the homies can join in on the music festivities. They work with the simple touch of your fingers and require no cable whatsoever, unless you want to plug them into an external MP3 source via your usual auxiliary cable. They’re available in a 4GB or 16GB version with a listen time of up to 20 hours on one full charge, and 1 hour from a quick 3 minute charge. Making them a hell of a choice in Europe, but hopefully we’ll see them on this side of the Atlantic very soon.
Customization is key in today’s market and the Bose QuietComfort 15 has caught on to the trend. The advanced noise cancelling headphone is now free to customize down to every detail on the Bose website. All you have to do is launch the design tool and you are free to customize everything from the brackets to spacers, inner headbands to outer headbands and from the ear cups to the rings. You’ll also have the option of choosing a matte or gloss finish for the ending paint job. As you can see, we went ahead and customized our very own Direkt Concept colorway above.
Hm, I guess we are on that rugged tip today, but shit, we aren’t complaining one bit over here. Especially since we came across these Outdoor Tech. Privates Wireless Headphones. Undeniably some of the most bad-ass headphones we’ve seen all year, these things will be perfect for the rest of your summer and beyond that. They feature Bluetooth wireless technology, a touch-pad interface on the right earpiece, built-in call functionality, a 3.5mm AUX jack for plug-in capability and a tough canvas wrap around the headband to give it some style. The Privates stream crystal-clear audio for a range of up to 32 feet for 10 hours on a single charge. So, you’ll most likely be passing out, listening to your favorite track. Pick them up at the end of July and if you’re one of those impatient people. Too bad!
Giving your friend the “R” side of your headphones so you can show em’ a song and you keeping the “L” side, get’s a little old. It also prevents both of you from hearing the song to its fullest extent and that my friends is not a very good first impression. Well, those days are soon to be over with once you copp these DuoBuds. A perfect way to share your favorite tunes, they’ve integrated an extra headphone jack to make life a bit easier for you and your buddy. All they have to do is simply have their own set of headphones (which we’re sure they do), plug into the extra jack, and they’ll be jammin’ right along side. Of course, with any type of headphone we want quality sound, and DuoBuds has achieved that with their advanced 8mm driver that delivers crisp and clear sound to your eardrums. Pick them up in several colorways.
Looking at plain ol’ white ear buds your whole life can get pretty boring. That’s why you need to pick up these Earskinz for Earpods. They’re made to provide some flare to those sacred audio devices you can’t live without. Not only do they add style but they also provide extra snugness in your ear so you won’t have the problem of your EarPods falling out while doing minimal amounts of activity. They come in several colorways to fit your everyday style needs and we would break down the science of all of it but it’s Friday. Who really wants to know all of that mess? Just know they’ll make life easier in way’s you’ve never imagined.
The science of technology gets an advancement with the FINIS Neptune. This waterproof MP3 player provides the highest quality sound in the water without the use of ear buds. Without the use of ear buds you might say? That’s correct! With the absence of air underwater, this music player works through Bone Conduction audio transmission to transmit crystal clear audio through the cheekbone directly into the inner ear. Pretty damn fancy if you ask us! It features 4GB of storage, 2 side speakers and a high contrast OLED screen that sits comfortably on the back of your head. We wouldn’t be surprised to see Michael Phelps competing with these in the 2016 Olympics. Oh wait, does that guy still swim?
We’ve learned from experience that over the ear headphones can be a pain in the ass especially if they aren’t wireless. If you are unorganized like us then the Just Mobile HeadStand is here to help you with your unorganized needs. A simple yet effective accessory the headphone stand is made from durable aluminum to give it a sophisticated design. It also features a dual-layered aluminum base that’s made to store those annoying headphone cords we talked about earlier. You can pick it up in a traditional silver aluminum or our personal favorite – black aluminum. Hopefully this will help you get a jump start on your organization efforts.
