Etymotic and ACS pair up for hf2 headphones

By Brenda Stokes on Friday, Apr 24th 2009 No Comments

etymoticsheadphones1 372x480 Headphone buffs had better listen up! Etymotic is teaming up with Advanced Communications Solutions (ACS) to create some new high-tech earbuds that offer a custom-fit for each individual wearer called the hf2 headphones.

The earbuds are custom-molded from silicon. ACS uses a fast-setting compound to take an impression of the inside of your ear. Then, this mold is used to create earbuds sculpted specifically for your ears’ shape and size.

The result? Total blockage of external sounds and supreme comfort. You’ll be able to use lower volume settings because outside noise is blocked out so well and you won’t have to worry about the earbuds falling out or getting uncomfortable since they were made just for you. Custom hf2 headphones will be available next Tuesday, April 28th for the equivalent of $131.

ZAGG offering Z.buds without mic

By Brenda Stokes on Wednesday, Apr 1st 2009 No Comments

zbud black We got our first look at the Z.buds in-ear headphones earlier this year but now ZAGG is offering up a different version of this product to please a wider audience. This time around, the headphones do not have a microphone.

When purchasing a pair of Z.buds, you’re now presented with the option to forego the integrated microphone and control button, lowering the overall price of the accessory while still providing you with the anti-tangle nylon cord that makes them such a pleasure to use.

A few things remain the same, however. The Z.buds still come with passive noise cancellation, inline volume control, a 3.5mm jack and foam and silicone buds with triple flanges that can be swapped out. You can get the Z.buds without a mic now for $60 in red, pink, yellow or black.

So, headphones that cover the whole ear are a real plus in my book, and the GHP-04NC headphones from Genius seem to have a lot going for them.
