JVC has unveiled its very first wooden earphones, named the HP-FX500. The company boasts that the wooden body of the earpiece enhances the audio quality.
JVC’s latest earbuds are said to deliver a sensitivity of 100dB/1mW, a frequency response of 8Hz to 25kHz. Each earbud weighs 7.5 grams and can fit comfortably in the ear, ensuring a soft feel. It can even give out 100 decibels per milliwatt.
Available in three sizes, namely in small, medium and large, the Victor HP-FX500 bundles with a carrying case. The look of the earphones does not attract consumers. And since much of features are not known, we can’t comment whether this is the best product for high quality sound.
Scheduled to release in February 2008, JVC HP-FX500 comes with a price tag of around $110 (approx. Rs. 4400).
