These Retro Headphones Are Perfect for Any Era

IDEA International, the design shop, teamed up with one of Japan's oldest audio companies, Ashidavox, to create a pair of cans that look like they're from the 1970's. Or 60's. Or 50's. Whatever! They look as timeless as ever.

These IDEA x Ashidavox Dyanmic Headphones are obviously inspired (if not, directly related to) by the Ashidavox ST-90. The minimal retro design is the same but the headphone's internals have been reworked and rejigged around to provide better sound and comfort. The headphones can deliver a frequency range of 25-18,000Hz and use a special urethane material on its ear cups for more comfortable listening with the price of $140.

    Those look very very good, and 140$ is an OK price to pay for good headphones.

    Seems a little expensive but If you need quality headphones it is worth it. I know how bad it is to have them in bad quality, I used to do game commentary.

    These are definitely too expensive for my tastes. I am happy with my dollar store headphones.
