Woodness Goodness
Posted by ADD K.S. in Art & Design, Shopping, Vinyl, musick on April 1st, 2010
Full disclosure: I have a pair of Timbre earphones, am a big fan of hardwood floors and love forest-filled strolls. So it should come as no surprise that I’m totally smitten by the Nixon headphones and earbuds, which use the warm wooden tones in their designs. I’m particularly fond of the Wire 8mm earbuds, because they’re so darn sleek and relatively cheap — $40 will get you these statement-making grains.

How much do lyrics matter to you? Are there certain lines that you have committed to memory? If you’ve got some favorite bands, songs and rhymes (and a few extra bucks lying behind your sofa) then consider these custom-made Street Headphones, available at Freedom of Creation. They transform your music tastes into gorgeous 3D headphones. Just hope that you’ve got $1,100 in couch change hanging around…

These colorful Kotori headphones are all about the snap, crackle and pop. Just check out how loud they are. And the volume should be pretty strong too. In over 100 variations, you can achieve any color combo and degree of brightness.

Do the holidays have to be over? This festive UrbanEars campaign makes me full of that damn yuletide longing.

Limited Smith Headphones

Mr. Paul Smith certainly knows how to create wonderfully designed objects, and these Audio-Technica full-size stereo headphones are no exception. Last year, I wanted a Paul Smith limited edition Holga camera for Christmas. This year, these headphones would definitely do the trick. They feature a gold aluminum housing (complete with Smith’s signature), and arrive in a spiffy Paul Smith travel pouch. Available from Paul Smith.

Minimalist Magic

Sometimes less is more, and these headphones prove that Scandanavian minimalism can be just as eye-catching as balls out bling. Urbanears offers three models in simple style: Plattan, Tanto and Medis, with 14 color variations. All models come with cable fabric covered cable extensions with a built-in microphone.

Hand Stand
Ok, this has nothing to do with your hands. But if you haphazardly leave your headphones (heaven forbid your expensive headphones) lying around, then this stylish solution is at least high-five worthy. Unfortunately, if you don’t have $179 dollars to leave your headphones feeling loved, then this Omega stand may be a thumbs-down… Here’s some info from their site:
The Omega’s design has been granted a design trademark by the European Union already. The stand is ideal for any serious listener who does not want to see his headphones discarded in some corner but is proud to show his love for music.
The flat surfaces of the Omega mean even pressure to the earpads and thus will prolong your listening pleasure as they keep their shape much longer. The Omega is large enough to support very large headphones like a Sennheiser HD 800 or the round models by Stax as well.
Curves in all the right places
