Anaheim, CA, January 19, 2012 -
Monster, leader in manufacturing and design of high-performance headphones, is
breaking new ground in the worlds of both high fashion and high-performance audio
with the launch of "Inspiration™,"
the company's first over-ear, noise canceling headphone.
Ideal for frequent business travelers, home, commuting or office
use, Inspiration headphones deliver pure and powerful music reproduction, with
a trendsetting "fashion-forward" twist - interchangeable headbands in a
multitude of different colors and materials. The bold new concept in headphone
design lets users express themselves by changing headbands, transforming the
entire look and feel to suit style preferences for any day, mood or occasion. Available with a titanium or pearl
white finish, as well as a special
SILVER LIMITED EDITION version,
Inspiration over-ear headphones will
begin shipping in Spring 2012 for a suggested retail price of $279.95 a pair. Additionally,
"Inspiration Lite" on-ear headphones will be available in June in pearl white for
a suggested retail price of $229.95. The interchangeable headbands will be
available separately, with eight different styles to choose from initially.
Each band carries a suggested retail price of $29.95.
Express Yourself, with Great Sounding Music
and Great Style!
Monster is
committed to developing audio products that complement peoples' lifestyles and
reflect the way they enjoy music today,
while faithfully reproducing all
genres of music as the artists intended. That's why the company designed Inspiration™ from the ground up to
bring the very best audio reproduction to consumers who not only want to bring
their music with them wherever they go, but also show off a sense of style,
self-expression and fun.
With their advanced noise canceling capabilities, Inspiration headphones
are perfect for busy commuters and travelers, as well as for everyone who wants
to enjoy a deeper emotional connection to their music, coupled with ahead-of-the-curve fashion. Designed
for both men and women, they feature a unique angled plush earcup, in addition
to their super comfortable, extra wide interchangeable headband.
Head Monster Noel Lee noted: "Everyone at Monster is
passionate about better sounding music - music is what inspires us. So to
create our Inspiration over-ear headphones, we started by making ultimate
quality sound our number one priority. But we didn't stop there. By bringing
together stunning, fashion-forward styling with true 'higher definition' audio
performance, we are giving all serious music lovers an opportunity to think
beyond their current listening choices and elevate both their listening experience
and their self-expression. Just as some days you wear jeans and some days you
might wear a tuxedo, these headphones with interchangeable bands let you choose
whatever look or feel you want to express yourself, and feel 'inspired.' With Inspiration
we can express ourselves exactly the way we want, wherever and whenever we want
- and of course enjoy the kind of superior music listening experience only Monster
headphones deliver."
Sophisticated Audio Technologies: Because the Music Matters™
Like all Monster headphones, Inspiration incorporates a variety of sophisticated
audio-enhancing headphone technologies, including leading-edge noise canceling
that allows users to immerse themselves in the music they're listening to. Inspiration headphones ensure an optimum audio experience, with a big high
performance sound of extreme clarity, deep bass and full power that is the
sonic signature of Monster headphones.
