Urbanear Announces Their Newest Zinken

Since the creation of Beats by Dre, headphones have become popular for people beyond the audiophiles who want top of the line quality music at all times. It has transformed from a normally used accessory in the home to something we would wear in public as a fashion accessory as well. Urbanears creates their products based upon visual appeal as much as audio quality. Their recently released Zinken stands as an example; it presents a clean and modern feel that packs a heavy punch when given the opportunity. 

With features such the TurnCable and ZoundPlug, the Zinken is compatible with anyone's needs. Constructed with rugged Kevlar on the inside, the TurnCable is compatible with DJ mixers using a 6.3mm plug while also using a 3.5mm plug on the other end for normal use with mobile phones and iPods. It is also coiled for extra extension for DJs while performing at a show. The ZoundPlug allows two headphones to enjoy tunes through a single audio source. By connecting two headphones through the ZoundPlug, your friend can listen to whatever you're listening to.

Cushioned with large padding on both the cups and the headband, the design of the Zinken allows it to sit on your head hours on end without feeling any discomfort. Thanks to the extra ear cushions, you get more noise isolation too. Packed within the ear cups are custom dual 40mm drivers that will blast spectacular sound across the entire spectrum. 

Not only did Urbanears make sure the Zinken performed and appeared as amazing as it could be, they wanted to assure a reasonable price point to fit anybody's budget, even the aspiring musician's. Available in Urbanear retailers and on their website, the Zinken will cost you $140. It is difficult to find quality that the Zinken promises in this budget range.

Beats Mixr Headphones By David Guetta Announced

I know what you may be thinking to yourself already, oh look another celebrity musician gets his own pair of Beats headphones. That might be true, but I can't help the fact that these look absolutely stunning. Monster really knows how to design good looking headphones there's no denying that. David Guetta might be the perfect music producer to be getting his own pair of DJ style headphones because he seems a lot more passionate about sound and has been involved in tuning these headphones to his good French taste. Rather than calling these the Beats By David Geutta, the new headphones are dubbed the Beats mixr headphones and aren't only designed for use by those spinning record people at the clubs. 

"Our vision was to create the perfect world class headphone for DJs and music lovers alike and the outcome is truly amazing! I use headphones every day in the studio and every night at gigs, so I know how important the difference in quality is and want to share that.

"The sound is better than anything I’ve experienced before because it doesn’t distort no matter what volume I am playing music at. They’re easy to travel with because they’re so light and compact. I can’t wait to start using them when I’m DJing, creating music or just when I’m listening to music on the move." - David Geutta

Much like the $450 pair of the Beats Pro headphones, the Beats mixr are built with part metal construction and have an over-ear designed ear cups that can swivel 180 degrees allowing the headphones to be folded for portable carry. The Beats mixr are expected to hit British stores in October for £250. No further details were announced as of yet.
