The guitar manufacturer Fender has launched its first ever range of in-ear headphones—sorry, Pro In-Ear Monitors—and they cost up to $500 a pair.
There are five models to choose from, which range from $100 to $500 in price. They’re made by a brand called Aurisonics that Fender has recently acquired, and some of the new models are actually updated versions of existing products.
The cheapest set come with a semi-transparent grey casing, and are said to be suited to being “driven by a smartphone, making them ideal for offstage listening.” The more expensive models are cased in colorful metal frames, 3D-printed into a shape that was created by scanning thousands of ears. Fender claims that they fit “95 percent of ears like an expensive custom-molded monitor,” making them suitable “for long playing sessions.”
