Bowers & Wilkins gets into in-ear headphones with steady C5s

Bowers & Wilkins gets into in-ear headphones with steady C5s

Posted on Jul 12, 2011 by MG1

Bowers & Wilkins broke from its focus on external audio Monday through launching the C5s. The in-ear headphones are tailored to runners with a new 'secure loop' that should keep the buds in an ideal position rather than gradually slip out. Even the weighting, made of tungsten, is designed to keep the design comfortable by balancing them towards the head rather than away from it, the company said.
A micro porous filter helps recreate some of the effect of open speakers by diffusing the sound even as it cuts back on the amount of outside noise getting in. The C5s have a wide 10Hz to 20kHz frequency range, a 32ohm impedance, and a 118dB signal to noise ratio. Bowers & Wilkins, as a regular iOS ...

Marshall updates Major headphone with in-line mic for more talkin' between rockin'

Marshall updates Major headphone with in-line mic for more talkin' between rockin'

Posted on Jun 21, 2011 by MG1

Marshall struck solid gold when it lent spare amp parts to Zound Industries (Urbanears) for the Major and Minor headphones, and is now releasing a remixed version of the original smash hit. The updated headset is by all means a Major headphone, but it now features an in-line remote with a mic that's sure to please on-the-move fans of the supra-aural fit. At $119, the new cans will set you back about 20 bones more than the original, although you can't put a price on the amount of rockstar-cred you'll gain. The Major is available now from Marshall Headphones' web store and at your local brick and mortar if you're GASing for some new JCM-esque headgear.
