Nox Audio Specialist and Scout Headphones

Published on Coolest Gadgets | shared via feedly

While I was at E3, I got a chance to see Nox Audio and their products. Their latest and greatest aren’t coming out until later, but I had a chance to try out the Scout and the Specialist.

The Scout is essentially a pair of earbuds that “sets the standard for audio performance”. The Scout allows for portable gaming, listening to music, as well as being able to manage calls with a touch of a button.

As for the Specialist, I have a picture of that after the jump. It is also designed for everything that the Scout is for, but it is the over-the-ear headphones. It has a volume control located at the ear that is essentially a big knob.

Both of them had some quality sound. What makes the Scout unique is that it has those slots which help keep the buds in the ear. What is really unique about the Scout is how the cable is flat and square.

As far as the Specialist is concerned, it has Dual Drivers and a retractable microphone boom. They also fold up for some easy-to-use storage, and the cushions are constructed of breathable, ultra-soft memory foam.

You should be able to purchase the Specialist and the Scout for about $79.99 at the Nox Audio site.
