V-MODA headphones and a DJ lifestyle go hand in hand. Any model of their spectacular cans are arguably the sturdiest pair of headphones you have ever held. One of the best headphones on the market for a traveling DJ or for an avid listener who needs a rugged headphone, V-MODA keeps finding ways to stay current, edgy, and stylish without compromising what’s important to the DJ and EDM lifestyle.
This week they unveiled their Crossfade Wireless over-the-ear headphones which offers both wired and wireless modes for hybrid listening. The acoustics development team sought to improve V-MODA’s renowned signature sound for virtually identical analog and wireless playback. The Crossfade Wireless went through years of precise engineering to design and tune wireless electronics while keeping the iconic V-MODA materials and shapes.
The patent pending dual-diaphragm 50mm driver is a refined version of the award-winning Crossfade M-100 that was crowdsourced by hundreds of headphone audiophiles and won 15+ editors’ choice awards. Its speaker consistency is unrivaled and has been hand-tuned to complement the human hearing limit variance (+/- 2dB).
Special skills were used to ensure the air flow mechanics and acoustic tuning materials were perfectly balanced. Additionally, it does not use a powered EQ staying true to the pure audio experience and avoiding unacceptable latency issues for videos, gaming and important to our world, DJs. The final result is a refined and improved Crossfade M-100 sound in both wired and wireless modes.
“As an avid analog purist, for years I said I would not make a wireless headphone. So instead, we decided to make our best over-ear wired headphone, yet featuring the best wireless mode. After years of R&D, we can proudly say that Crossfade Wireless is versatile enough to be the everyday audio weapon of choice for music professionals, audiophiles, gamers and smart consumers alike.”
