At CES 2013 Audio-Technica is redefining value in portable headphones with the introduction of its Core Bass ATH-COR150 and Clear ATH-CLR100 in-ear headphones. Both models bring superior sound quality to extremely attractive price points with Core Bass at US$19.95 and Clear at US$14.95 SRP. “We’ve always given customers great value in every headphones category we offer, from portable and noise-cancelling to high-end audiophile models,” said Crystal Griffith, Audio-Technica Consumer Marketing Manager. “With the introduction of our Clear and Core Bass headphones, we now offer true high-quality sound at prices, styles and vibrant colors that are especially appealing to younger listeners – and that everyone can enjoy.” Both the Core Bass and Clear headphones come with a unique collapsible cord wrap that encloses the headphones for protection and carrying convenience, when not in use. Both models are available in a variety of striking colors, including lime green, blue, red, pink, purple, black, white and orange. The Core Bass in-ear headphones deliver immersive sound with full, textured bass and excellent detail resolution. Equipped with a housing that rotates for around-the-ear cord placement, the Core Bass headphones come with two snap-on, snap-off oval ear hangers for comfort-fit options, and S, M and L-sized soft silicone eartips to ensure a comfortable fit for any wearer. The Clear in-ear headphones offer remarkable value at under $15. These headphones deliver natural, detailed sound and are an excellent upgrade from the typical ear-bud headphones that are supplied with portable devices. Clear headphones are supplied with S, M and L-sized soft silicone eartips for total comfort. The Core Bass ATH-COR150 and Clear ATH-CLR100 headphones will be available in February 2013 at www.shopaudiotechnica.com, retailers and online sellers.
