Get Your New Headphones From the Doctor
Jan 8, 2008 6:48 PM
He's reportedly got some
of the best ears in hip-hop, and now Dr. Dre will be putting his ears into his
own line of headphones. Teaming up with Interscope/A&M/Geffen head Jimmy
Iovine and audio equipment manufacturer Monster, Dre is slated to release the
headphones, which are tentatively being called "Beats by Dre,"
sometime this spring.
The headphones, designed
to transmit audio much like studio producers such as Dre hear in when they're
in the studio listening to high-end monitors, are said to use a new driver
technology to expand the dynamic range of the headphones beyond what usual
commercial headphones offer. The "Beats" are set to hit the market at
around $400, which should include a carrying case and a specialized iPhone
adapter.
