The last century has seen headphones go from bulky audio equipment to lightweight cans that sound very close to what the artist intended to create. In the last decade, the

    I love that idea but it gives “main character” energy. You only buy this to shoe your music taste then hope someone talks to you about it. Maybe i am wrong 😂

      “Main character energy” is a great way to put it. If I came across someone wearing these I’d have some assumptions…

      It reminds me of that Onion piece on a Kindle that loudly shouts what book you’re reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDBzQkWeQ5g

    No information about the drivers and no frequency response graphs doesn’t fill me with confidence.

      That’s because they don’t exist. It’s only a concept rendering. This site spotlights design ideas and their creators, not actual products.

        this post should should perhaps go into some sort of design community rather than a technology community in that case? since there’s no technology here

    Considering I deal with people who blast their music from their phone speakers without headphones, I do not want to know what over-bassed track they’re listening to.

    I imagine the frequency response curve is going to be a trash heap on these things. Mids? Who needs em?

    Oh man, if my batteries run out on my noise cancelling headphones I leave them on so I don’t have to talk to people. Now I can enjoy the, “I know those aren’t on” line.

    How fast would that battery die? Also the screens probably add substantial weight. This thing isn’t practical at all, but it is very flashy.

    This is very pointless and it just makes the headphones heavier for no benefit to the wearer
