Harmon Kardon launches a line of headphones exclusively for Apple devices

In the world of audio accessories, the Harmon Kardon brand has the same value as the Ferrari name has in the world of automobiles. And just in case you thought their existing line of audio accessories couldn’t get any better, the Cupertino Company launched a whole line up headphones designed for and inspired by Apple’s music devices. The range of Harmon Kardon headphones includes two pairs of over ear headphones, two pairs of in-ear headphones and a mysterious fifth model.

Harmon Kardon launch Apple-exclusive NI, BT, CL, AE and NC headphones

Priced at £90-a pair Harmon Kardon NI headphones are the cheapest of the lot. Fitted with an in-line 3-button remote, the NI earphones weigh just 3g per earpiece and fit all ear shapes snugly thanks to three varying silicone sleeves. For a wide dynamic range, the black earphones come with 9mm drivers. Next in the pecking order are £130 Harmon Kardon AE in-ear headphones that features passive noise cancellation via expandable inserts. For better acoustic dampening, the AEs come with silver-toned casing. The Harmon Kardon CLs over-ear pairs come next and retails for £170. The headphones feature a 2.5mm jack over the right cup and enhance the bass levels via onboard 40mm drivers.

Designed to mimic the silhouette of an iPod, the rectangular headphones come with leather padding on the sandblasted steel headband. The £220-a pair Harmon Kardon Bluetooth-enabled BT headphones are next in the range. The BT comes with a 12-hour battery backup with a passive mode allowing plug-n-play functionality via a passive mode when the battery is depleted. The BT comes with an integrated mic. The £280 over-the ear noise cancelling Harmon Kardon NC is the top of the line pair. The Apple-exclusive headphones will be retailed exclusively via Apple’s online store as well as Apple Retail Stores.
