V-MODA UNVEILS WORLD’S FIRST HI-DEFINITION LUXURY EARPHONES DESIGNED FOR FASHION-FORWARD ACTIVE LIFESTYLE

November 04, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
HOLLYWOOD, CA – Music lifestyle brand V-MODA today unveiled VIBE, a revolutionary noise-isolating modaphone that allows discerning music enthusiasts to experience
state-of-the-art audio on the go. The luxurious, unprecedented all-metal design of VIBE puts the earphones on par with high fashion jewelry, while the lightweight micro-size and ultra-soft silicon fittings provide a secure, comfortable fit during the most rigorous activities. VIBE is the first hi-fidelity earphone of its caliber to possess such mobile flexibility. At a suggested retail price of $101, VIBE is designed to coordinate with the iPod®, the new Zune™ and other portable music players, as well as modern apparel and fashion accessories.

“VIBE modaphones are the benchmark of the Hearwear category V-MODA has fashioned,” said Val Kolton, founder and CEO of V-MODA. “They’re the first hi-fidelity earphones that don’t tether you to your chair when you want to experience pristine audio. And the sleek design and polished metal craftsmanship make a bold statement in a world of ordinary, carbon-copy plastic earphones.”

Premium metal composition and superior technology enable a sculpted response curve fashioned for the discerning audio enthusiast, providing a precise balance of rich bass, warm mids and unprecedented clarity. Utilizing V-MASQUE dynamic driver technology, VIBE is able to achieve a precise yet natural soundstage in comparison to other high-end earphones. BLISS (Bass Level Isolating Soft Silicon) technology further reduces outside noise for a precise and rich bass response (frequency 12Hz to 22Hz).

Weighing in at only 12 grams, VIBE is the ultimate earphone for both outdoor activities and low-key relaxation. With three sizes of ultra-soft silicon fittings in both clear and black colors, the modaphones fit securely and comfortably, unlike deep in-ear canal earphones, and won’t jar loose during exercise.

VIBE modaphones are available in two high-fashion colors: Gunmetal Black and FlashBlack Chrome. The included Modawrap cable manager adjusts the length of the sport-optimized lightweight cables, and an elegant leather gold pouch is also provided for safe travel and storage. As a unique added bonus, customers receive VIP card access to exclusive “V-MODA modcasts,” music and other gear along with their purchase of VIBE.

PRICING AND AVAILABILITY
VIBE modaphones are now available for $101 (a nod to the landmark Highway 101 that runs past V-MODA’s Hollywood Hills headquarters). They can be found at the Apple Store, Virgin Megastore and Bloomingdale’s, as well as online at Shop V-MODA (shop.v-moda.com), and Apple.com.
