Filed in: HeadphonesKoss

Koss may be known for its budget-minded offerings in the headphone space, but today it's announced something to shake things up a bit. Falling under the Striva moniker, Koss has created what it claims to be the first lineup of headphones to use "WiFi technology that receives music directly from the Internet without wires." To start, there's the over-ear Pro model, loaded with gesture controls for volume and channel adjustments, while an in-ear set, dubbed Tap, is also available for extra portability.

Barnes & Noble's mystery Nook Audio revealed to be a pair of headphones

Barnes & Noble's mystery Nook Audio revealed to be a pair of headphones

Posted on Apr 19, 2012 by MG3

We heard of a mystery Barnes & Noble product known as Nook Audio a few weeks ago, but now the secret is out — according to a new image added to the product page on BN.com, it appears to be simply a pair of headphones. There's unfortunately still no other details whatsoever — no price, no release date, or any hint on what might make these headphones qualified to bear the Nook brand. With an image now available, however, we'd expect some real detail on this product to make the rounds very soon. With the Nook Tablet and Nook Color's audio and video capabilities, we suppose a Nook-branded pair of headphones makes at least some amount of sense.

Plantronics BackBeat Go headset sports tangle-free cord, 'rich' stereo sound

Posted on Apr 04, 2012 by MG3

Plantronics has made a name for itself in the wireless headset space, but there's plenty of room to grow when it comes to premium stereo offerings. BackBeat Go is the company's smallest and lightest wireless earbud set to date, tipping the scale at 13 grams, or "about the weight of three nickels." The cordless rig includes a pair of earbuds linked with a flat tangle-free cord, with inline controls to adjust volume and an integrated mic for calls. The Bluetooth-enabled Go can sync up with one device at a time, so you'll need to repeat the pairing process if switching between phones or to a tablet -- and you should be able to snag 4.5 hours of listening and talk time or 10 hours of standby wit...

Razer Tiamat 7.1 gaming headset delayed again until February

Razer Tiamat 7.1 gaming headset delayed again until February

Posted on Jan 31, 2012 by MG1

Razer's Tiamat 7.1 gaming headset was already running late, and now it's been pushed back again. The company puts the delay down to its "relentless pursuit of quality," and promises shipments will be made sometime in February. To make it up to customers who've been waiting for their chance to listen to Modern Warfare 3 in true 7.1 surround, Razer is giving away coupons for a free t-shirt and flask, along with free shipping — though it made the same offer last time it delayed the Tiamat. Alternatively, a host of simulated 7.1 options are available for those tired of waiting.
