These Retro Headphones Are Perfect For Any Era

These Retro Headphones Are Perfect For Any Era

IDEA International, the design shop, teamed up with one of Japan’s oldest audio companies, Ashidavox, to create a pair of cans that look like they’re from the 1970s. Or 60s. Or 50s. Whatever! They look as timeless as ever.

These IDEA x Ashidavox Dyanmic Headphones are obviously inspired (if not, directly related to) by the Ashidavox ST-90. The minimal retro design is the same but the headphone’s internals have been reworked and rejigged around to provide better sound and comfort. The headphones can deliver a frequency range of 25-18,000Hz and use a special urethane material on its ear cups for more comfortable listening. $US140. [Vetted Shop via Acquire Mag]
