S1 Audio: From Headphones to Neckphones
Jan 23, 2009 • Uncategorized • Efren Toscano
I’m sure the person to your right on your next business flight is just going to love these. S1 Audio introduced at CES the NxSet Music 1 & 2 and the NxSet Mobile 1 & 2. Giving your ears a break from those earbuds, the NxSet neckphones projects the sound up to your ears. The device is lightweight and sits comfortably on the neck which allows you to still keep alert and not totally drown out the world. I can see these as being a good office product if you have your own office at work or your neighbor has similar music taste. Becuase being able to still hear that fire drill can come to good use.
- NxSET Music 1 – Includes two high-fidelity speakers that project audio to the ears when worn
around the neck. When the volume is increased, the device can be used as a miniature and
highly portable speaker system. - NxSET Music 2 – Similar to the Music 1 model with the addition of retractable earbuds for
entirely private listening. - NxSET Mobile 1 – Designed to work with mobile phones, this model includes a single speaker
and retractable earbud along with high performance microphone to replicate an off-the-head
mobile headset. CSR BlueCore 5 Bluetooth technology is incorporated to eliminate the need
for cords. - NxSET Mobile 2 – Similar to Mobile 1, this device is designed with music-enabled phones in
mind and features two personal speakers where users can switch between stereo phone headset
and listening to streaming stereo functionality without cords, thanks to CSR BlueCore 5
Bluetooth technology. The device also includes two retractable earbuds for completely private
listening.
