Jays Release t-Jays Four Headset

JAYS has released yet another pair of in-ear headset called the t-Jays Four, and extending its line of quality headset offerings. The t-Jays Four set to bring the best sound quality out of them all with the same high quality, MEMS microphone and full-featured 3-button remote found on the a-Jays Four iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S users will come to appreciate thanks to the metal band design. The t-Jays Four aren't built differently from the t-Jays Three we've reviewed and only bring remote and mic functionality that's fully compatible with iOS devices to the plate. The same 10mm TCD dynamic drivers, tangle-free cable and black matte coating are found on the t-Jays Four in-ear headset. It will be available in November for $129.

Beats Wireless Headphones Get Official, Beats Studio Get More Colors

Monster has announced of new color additions to its most popular over-ear headphones, the Beats By Dr. Dre Studio line of headphones. Orange, purple, pink, blue, green and silver colored limited edition Studio headphones will accompany the current black, white and red Studio lineup and will be available for $350, and expected to be available starting next week. It isn't clear to us why the silver Studio headphones are priced higher at $400 as they aren't made out of aluminum and have the same exact build as the rest of the Studio headphones but with a non-glossy finish. 

Besides splashing the Studio headphones in all the colors of the rainbow, the leaks have come true with the official announcement of the Beats Wireless on-ear headphones which are expected to hit stores next month for $330. The Beats Wireless headphones are in many ways just Solo headphones with Bluetooth wireless connectivity and on-board controls for music and calls. They'll have built-in long-lasting, rechargeable batteries which is an improvement over the Studio headphones. 

SMS By 50 Headphones Are 50 Cent's Latest Headphone Brand

Oh yes, 50 Cent is back with a brand new pair of headphones and brand name after breaking off the deal with Sleek Audio for unknown reasons. The new SMS By 50 is 50 Cent's new line of headphones that include both wired and wireless over-ear headphones with an almost identical swishy "s" logo the dead Sleek By 50 carbon fiber made headphones have had as well. The Sync By 50 headphones come with their own wireless adapter capable of streaming 16-bit lossless audio to up to 4 pairs of Sync headphones from a single audio source as well as a wired mic cable for non-wireless and headset use. The Sync headphones feature 40mm drivers, soft memory foam ear cushions, passive noise-cancellation, micro-USB rechargeable internal battery and on-board controls. 

The wired-only model have less of a shiny finish and have similar specs minus the wireless capabilities and on-board controls. Both headphones will be available in black and white starting November. No price has been released as of yet. SMS Audio apparently purchased headphone make Kono Audio back in August to help contribute to making the SMS By 50 line of headphones. Let's hope these actually see the light of day.

Tunes Debuts Spectrum Pro Headphones & In-Ear Equalizers

Looks like Sol Republic aren't the only new brand on the block. Tunes are almost ready to out their very own line of headphones as soon as October that include the over-ear Spectrum Pro headphones priced at $99, a very competitive price point that seems to trend now to obviously compete against the Beats By Dr. Dre line. The Tunes Spectrum Pro are marketed as high-end reference headphones that are constructed out of aluminum, carbon fiber and plastic materials for extra durability as well as to help resist vibrations from the deep bass these fire out. In addition to that, other features include flat, removable tangle-free cable, advanced passive sound isolations and plush padded ear cups promise hours of comfortable wearing.

Tunes will also release its in-ear headphones called the Equalizers, boasting a flat tangle-free cable with a built-in mic and music control buttons with an emphasize on deep bass. The Equalizers are equipped with an armature driver to deliver accurate and professional quality audio with complete noise isolation. Both headphones will be available in various different colors. We should have a review on both of Tunes' offerings so stay tuned!
