We’ve been a fan of V-MODA for a while now because, when it comes to mobile audio products, they “know a thing or two about a thing or two”.
And their latest Vibrato in-ear headphones are a testament to just that. Unique die-casting metal technology makes for a slick, angular design not seen on lower end audio products. Zinc alloy construction guarantees a rock solid, well-built frame perfect for the daily beating that most travelers exact on their gear. Out of the box, four in-ear silicone headphone tips are available in varying sizes to ensure a secure, comfortable fit.
But what about the sound? The Vibrato headphones were specifically designed with the help of professional DJs and musicians to recreate the resonant feel of the live music experience. In V-MODA’s own words: “constructed with an 8mm dynamic HD neodymium driver, the Vibrato delivers vibrant bass, vivid mid-range, and vivacious highs. Featuring our BLISS noise isolating technology, you can reduce background noise and enable deep bass.” Indeed.
We absolutely love Vibrato and they’ve become our go-to pair of travel headphones. At around $125, they’re right in the sweet spot between cheap, big box store headphones and ludicrously overpriced buds that overpromise (but rarely deliver) “studio quality” sound.
