Pioneer expands headphone line-up with new inner ear models for smartphones

 

December 17, 2012

Pioneer is pleased to announce the launch of three types of inner-ear headphones, designed for use with smartphones and other mobile devices. The new headphones provide an excellent fit and offer high sound quality at a reasonable price, leveraging the technologies and expertise Pioneer has cultivated as an audio manufacturer.

The new headphone models include the SE-CL522, SE-CL501 and SE-CL501T. The small and lightweight SE-CL522 earphones are designed for optimal comfort. They adopt a “ceramic powder coated trembler” usually found in high-end equipment, which results in excellent sound quality by reducing unnecessary internal oscillation. The SE-CL501 and SE-CL501T models combine powerful bass with a secure fit. The SE-CL501T adds an inline microphone and remote for easy control and one-touch calls from different iPhone and Android smartphones. All three types are available in an array of vibrant colours to suit various styles and tastes.
