just for fashion? what do your current headphones look like?

i always thought the Beats ranged looked quite slick (especially the white Solos)

any of the subtler Senheissers dont draw to much attention either/

It just depends on how much looks are important to you over sound.

AIAIAI: TMA-1 Headphones

Tycho Magnetic Anomaly-1

The name TMA-1 refers to the extremely long-lived, black monolith mentioned in Arthur C. Clarke's novel 2001 - A Space Odyssey - a fitting name for this rugged, matte-black and incredibly reliable headphone.

Technical Specifications:

- Driver Unit Size: 40 mm

- Impedance: 32 Ohm

- Load Rating: 0.1 W

- Frequency Response: 20 to 20,000 Hz

- Total Harmonic Distortion: less than 0.3%

- Speaker Sensitivity: 110 +/- 3dB

As tested and used by:

Hudson Mohawke / Kode 9 / Superpitcher / Ellen Allien / Seth Troxler / Matthew Dear / Michael Mayer / Koze / James Murphy / Hot Chip / Luciano / Trentemoller

Overview:

The TMA-1 is made in collaboration with 25 professional and renowned DJs including Warp's own Hudson Mohawke.

The one-piece headband is made of a strong, durable and pliant matte nylon material, which provides full flexibility when wearing and positioning the headphones during DJing, and at the same time renders the TMA-1 virtually unbreakable. The inner parts are sheltered by the headphone-cup made out of a resistant ABS material. The 40mm dual-diaphragm high-definition drivers deliver high definition, full-spectrum sound providing you with crystal clarity and an accurate sound on all frequencies..

Features:

- 0mm dual-diaphragm drivers deliver high-definition sound

- Two types of ear cushions - 1 pair in memory foam and 1 pair in lambskin to reduce background noise and enable a low bass response

- Frame in resistant ABS material and flexible nylon headband for durability

- 1.7 meter cable with a mini jack connection in both ends as well as a reinforced plug with a 1/8 adapter option

- 0.4 meter coil on the wire, which gives extra length and flexibility at the turntables

- Custom designed Kevlar-reinforced cables and 45 degree plugs

- Three-button remote and inline 3-button microphone to adjust the volume and control music playback

- Compatible with the latest Macs and other audio recording applications

- 24k gold-plated plug for enhanced contact and sound clarity

What's in the box?

- 2 sets of earpads

- Carrying case

- 1.7 meter cable

- 6.3 mm stereo plug converter

Quotes:

"Really good sounding sturdy headphones. Probably the best on the market...", Hudson Mohawke

"In general they're louder and more focused than my beloved HD25s, and that's great. They're also nice and smooth without being flat. I like the options of cable and ear cushion as well.", James Murphy

"I'm using them as my main DJ headphones now...", Kode 9

Already our favourite model in the market within the Bleep office - the best new headphones around and a must for any DJ.

£175 (UK) / €200 (EU) / $230 (ROW) (all prices include registered shipping)
