Following the worldwide release of the iPhone 3G, Bang & Olufsen is introducing a new version of its wired, stereo headset with built-in microphone, designed to fit any ear firmly and smoothly, also providing the highest sound quality for the iPhone.
Acoustic performance is one of Bang & Olufsen's core competences as is amply demonstrated by the tiny EarSet 3. Here, a high signal-to-noise ratio means that the annoying noise known from many ear sets and earphones is almost absent; instead every musical detail is audible.
The sound quality is also affected by the placement of the EarSet in the ear. EarSet 3 has been specially developed to closely match the contours and curves of the ear, permitting you to hear the sounds that would otherwise slip away. Bang & Olufsen also enclosed small covers to make it more comfortable, and to compensate for the leak that might occur if the ear is bigger than the EarSet.
The dynamic full tone loudspeakers mounted on a telescopic bar are constructed according to the open loudspeaker principle that lets through some environmental sounds. So, you will not be entirely cut off from the world when enjoying the pure sound of EarSet 3.
Perfect Fit for Any Ear
To complement the focus on acoustics, Bang & Olufsen also focused on the way all mechanical parts work together. Special attention is paid to fine mechanics as precision engineering and ergonomic design are crucial for a small product that requires many movements when putting it on and taking it off.
The experience has to be both smooth and precise, and EarSet 3 more than fulfils this requirement as it adjusts easily to the contours and curves of the individual ear.
Whatever your level of activity, EarSet 3 sits firmly and smoothly, ensuring that the sound experience is for your ears only. Finally, the microphone is placed on the wire where it is conveniently combined with the hook switch.
Materials
EarSet 3 is designed with carefully selected materials, providing ultimate comfort for the user as well as a high level of robustness. EarSet 3 is made of brushed aluminium and a special soft-touch rubber coating. These are very robust and scratch-free materials that combine quality and comfort in a top design.
Weighing only 8 grams on the ear, EarSet 3 ensures that you can concentrate fully on the excellent sound experience, when browsing through your music collection or making a phone call.
EarSet 3 builds on the unique design and high acoustic performance of the existing Earphones, and with the new mini-jack plug, EarSet 3 can also be used with any mp3 player as a set of high quality earphones for music purposes only.
EarSet 3 will serve as the perfect companion for iPhone users who desire the highest quality in earphones as well as a hands-free solution; it is an exclusive item for all who have a passion for innovation, convenience, communication and, of course, music. EarSet 3 will be available in Bang & Olufsen stores worldwide and selected Apple stores.
