CRYSTAL-CLEAR EARS
If our tropical location has you missing the sound of Christmas carolers out on your doorstep, you might want to buy yourself a pair of UE-11 Pro headphones from Ultimate Ears. With these “sound saviors,” you can download some festive tracks from iTunes and experience holiday harmonizing as if you had a choir in your head this holiday season. Live-audio engineers for such performers as the Rolling Stones, Justin Timberlake and Gwen Stefani worked closely with Ultimate Ears to develop these landmark musical liaisons. The UE-11 Pro combines four speakers in each earpiece, providing a listening experience unmatched by any other product on the market. The result of this new innovation is complete acoustic immersion that conveys every sonic and emotional nuance of every sound transmitted through them. A custom-molded pair will set you back $1,150, but at least you won’t have to make eggnog for an army of carolers on your lawn. To change the way you hear forever, go to UltimateEars.com.
