lp_secondary_white_pearl_wbgMusic is great, so why can’t your headphones be just as good, or even better? Yes, that’s right music can sound better when you aren’t listening to it through your stock Apple® Earbuds. But how? One example, the V-MODA Crossfade LPs. The headphones that sound as great as they look!



Lets Get It Started

secondary_lp_white_n_case_bbgThe Crossfade LPs are a high quality and meticulously designed pair of headphones. Built as much for the hardcore audiophile as everyday user they are a great mix of style and quality. Now like I always say first impressions are everything, so the box better be as nice as the product, and let me tell you, it is! From the alligator skin like  handle and strap and the red security ribbon, its nothing but “high class” from the inside out, and that goes for the head phones too. When you first 34117953-2-440-BT-3open the box you are greeted with the Crossfade LPs #1 accessory, the exoskeleton carrying case. Inside the exoskeleton you will fond not only the headphones, but V-MODA’s “V-STRAP” system so the included 3.5mm, detachable, audio cables aren’t going to get lost easily. Also included is a 3.5mm to 1/4” adapter so these headphones can be used with professional audio equipment as well as your normal iPod or MP3 player. Mentioned above are the two 3.5mm audio cables. One shorting, sporting a three button remote control and microphone similar to the remote found on the Apple® Earphones. Also another one, longer yet lacking the remote and mic, for just plain audio. Both of the cables are Kevlar® reinforced so they will be less likely to break as well as tangle.


Design and Sound

V-MODA hit the bulls eye on style with these headphones. They stated that they spent 4 years developing and tweaking the style and other aspects of these headphones to what I would call 34117953-2-440-SD-2close to perfection. I would like to quote Val Kolton, CEO of V-MODA, “Your headphones should be as unique as your style and your music – they are the most visible product that you wear and experience music with everyday…”. What this shows is that head phones need to reflect their sound quality in their design. I have bought headphones that sound great but look like they got put through the slicer in the Deli more that through the manufacturing machine and headphones that nailed the design but sounds like there was construction in the recording studio. With a 50mm Dual-Diaphragm High-Def Drivers, there is plenty of sound to go around. But with power come the fact of overpower-ment, and at times the bass can get a little out of hand with some types of music, but then again for most DJs that’s a good thing.


Summary

When V-MODA says “Ground Breaking” they mean it, these are a great set of headphones. With the V-MODA “Replay Replacement Program”, a life time warranty that allows a 50% off discount on the same headphones if they break after the normal warranty, they are also guaranteed to last you a long time. So, for the $250 investment, I would highly recommend these headphones to any user that is looking for great style and sound quality!
