The SYNC headset, which is the marquee product for us
this year, it has a 40 mm drive in it.
It utilizes Clear Technology.
A lot of the wireless headsets that you see at CES
are utilizing Bluetooth, which was originally
created for telecommunications,
so it compresses the files in it.
It lowers the actual sound quality,
so Clear Technology allows us to have
the headset 50 feet away from the source of the music,
without losing CD quality sound.
Because I've bought headsets in the past, that have
been EQ'd for hip hop music, they have really heavy bass
but not so good sound quality when you played it
with other genres of music, I put an onboard equalizer
on the same headset, that allows you to bass boost
and for you to skip forward and rewind
the actual songs from the actual headset.
I wanted to balance it out, because the practice of me
writing a song or creating a song,
sometime I'm inspired by a production,
so it is important for me to try and have
the general public hear the song
the way I am actually hearing it in the studio.
I've tried to offer something that would be
visible to the general public as a stronger quality,
like the headset I'm demonstrating for you.
Durability was really important for me.
Right now, they are available at smsaudio.com,
and you know, we had a successful
soft launch in December.
We did pretty good, so I'm excited,
and the CES has has been amazing.
The coverage that I've got since, you know,
since I launched it, it speaks for itself.
I'm all over the place.
