Bose New Product Launch

Embargo is a word you only learn once entering the journalistic world. In simple terms, it means getting an insight into something new but not being allowed to write, blog, tweet about it until the official release date. It is always very exciting hearing about a new secret product release before everyone else and I felt extremely privileged to be trying out the new Bose wireless headphones before the rest of the world.

The launch was housed in the achingly hip MC Motors building in Stoke Newington. A naturally distressed establishment which is most often used for weddings, but it suited this cause perfectly too.

Refreshing gin cocktails were served from a bicycle basket and waiters wandered round with gourmet finger food – the ricotta and parma ham pizza was particularly memorable. To prove the quality of Bose speakers, singer Callaghan strummed and sang in one corner filling the cavernous room with a lilting melody.

After much nourishing food and drink I was led by a lovely PR girl into an exclusive room to trial the new products. Three dramatically-lit stands showcased the new headphones, ready for use. The SoundSport wireless headphones are wonderfully light and comfortable, offering active customers a brilliant solution to music on the go. Priced at £139.95, they are affordable too. The QuietComfort 35 wireless headphones were the product I was most excited about, and they didn’t disappoint. Ultra comfortable (with both on-ear and around-ear options), great battery life, and miraculous sound quality, allowing you to completely zone out from your chaotic surroundings. They are priced at £289.95. The final product I was introduced to will be released later this year, a new in-ear, wireless headphones with varying noise-cancelling options.

Hot on the Highstreet Week 113: BASSBUDS

Usually I zone out as soon as a ‘high performance’ product is mentioned. It all sounds far too male-orientated, technology-minded and quite frankly boring… but the Bassbuds company grabbed my attention when a pair of glitzy Swarovski high quality headphones arrived on my doorstep.

Bassbuds have successfully fused aesthetic high performance in-ear headphones with a MIC & MP3 controller creating a piece of equipment that is both effective and stylish. Immaculately presented in a smart black box, it is a perfect gift for any music fan.

The design is very appealing, some are even made with Swarovski elements. The range comes in a huge variety of jazzy colour combinations to suit every customer; after looking through the huge selection I’ve decided the ‘Fashion Collection’ is my favourite, although the ‘Classics’ would be perfect for any man in your life. I was sent an attractive white pair, very similar to the iPod variety… but with an extra special Swarovski rock in the centre of each ear.

In terms of practicality I can’t fault the BassBuds, the sound is crystal clear and your music can be controlled with just one button… so even technophobes like me have no reason to worry. I usually find in the ear headphones uncomfortable but Bassbuds are discreet and soft, with three sizes of rubber attachment to suit any shaped and sized ear!

Currently reduced from £85 to £34.95 on the website, it has never been a better time to upgrade your headphones.
