TDK don't just make blank tapes, they make headphones too

TDK has announced six new pairs of “high performance” headphones which it claims will also be “affordable”. This means that you’ll need twelve ears if you want to use them all at once.

Ranging from the big fat DJing type in the MP200 to the smaller in-ear headphones that normal people use, like the EB-200, the puntastic TDK “Life on record” line seems to have you covered. Much like the best Pokemon teams, each pair of headphones brings a different set of special moves to the group – with the in-ear EB200’s superpower being that it is made of “extra-durable rubber” to stop it slipping out when coated with sweat. Lovely. The people in the lab must have loved testing that.

Similarly, the MP200 has a 50mm neodymium driver unit, which will boost the bass, meaning that you won’t have to play your music through the ridiculous subwoofer in your ridiculous modified car, and the MMP-200 has a built in microphone to allow you to use it to make phonecalls and the like. If only someone could combine them all to create some sort of headphone-megazord.

Here’s a full spec-sheet of the new headphones:
