"Air purifying, ANC headphones". "High fidelity audio"

I bet it will have, ehrm, clean sound, though

Opinions?

Was just about to post this one.
I'm leaning more towards 'medieval torture device' than 'wearable of the future' from a glance.

It just seems like an excessive amount of points-of-failure.
Also it's a headphone.... that literally makes noise with moving parts and blowing air. It's a bit of an oxymoron.
The ANC must be designed specifically for this and more, but what happens when old motors start whirring etc etc.
I'm extremely skeptical.

Yeah, at first glance, I also had these "SAW1" vibes

It's different enough to be interesting, though. The design is like a breath of fresh air. Enough with the puns, already.

it will have a lot of "air"

may also be somewhat 'veiled'

I can't imagine these being serious.

This has got to be an early April fools joke?

The only place where i see this actually "useful" is in a F1 circuit...

I was all set to buy a pair of these. But, I checked extensively and there is no crevice tool, no upholstery brush, and no extension wand. So basically useless.

Pffffft. FAIL
