S1 Audio NxSET Music 1: New Neckband Headphones Are The New Popped Collars

January 08, 2009
S1 Audio NxSET Music 1

Most headphone companies make the mistake of assuming that the ears are the perfect part of the body for listening. S1 Audio has discovered with NxSET Music 1 that the neck might actually be preferable.

The NxSET is a neckband that places the "headphones" onto the shoulders at neck level, projecting the sound directly towards the ears. A hi-fidelity amplifier built into the collared speaker system offers rich bass, crisp mids and clear high end.

It also allows listeners to keep the volume at a personal level or share with others by taking the NxSET off of your neck. When worn on the neck, the NxSET is designed to be comfortable to wear.

Still, I'd get a laugh if I ever saw someone using a NxSET while riding the train to work in the morning or taking a jog.

They look like they have ergonomic handles from which thieves, or pissed off second-hand listeners can easily squeeze the neck-wearing-neckphones fool.
