Wired headphones can, potentially, provide the best listening experience in regard to sound quality. The wires, however, at some point, will get tangled, or worse yet, get caught on something and that is often the end of them. Realistically, though, think about all the wired headphones you’ve had in your lifetime, have any of them been really, truly awesome? That’s why you need to know about Axum Gear and its “extreme-conditions-proof” wireless earbuds.
Axum Gear promises that its new earbuds will wirelessly deliver “original studio soundtrack quality” thanks to its use of M-voiD technology – “a unique combination of industrial design and multidisciplinary simulations” [source] that helps shape sound for a specific environment. In this case, that environment is the inside of the human ear. Of course, you’ll have to wait for the upcoming review to get my opinion of Axum’s sound quality.
Axum Gear, which is currently fundraising via Indiegogo, has so far amassed 379% of its original $15,000 funding goal. While this is certainly indicative of the interest in this particular product, it also shows exactly how hungry the public is for something new in the world of headphones, especially wireless headphones. If Axum Gear has played its cards right, they could easily step out as the leader in this market segment, which is likely the goal of its current campaign.
