The a-JAYS earbuds don’t seem like much. But that’s the point. Just like the gorgeously designed Chrome notebook , these buds stand out because they’re so naked. Flattened. Black. Simple. Beautiful. And it doesn’t hurt that they sound just pretty much as good.
The a-JAYS series is designed specifically for iOS devices-look into how the L-shaped plug aligns perfectly with the starkly top flat of an iPhone 4. The cables themselves are completely flat-that means fewer tangles moreover an appearance unlike your typical headphones. Form following function! And except sound, the sole thing I may ask of my headphones is that they don’t collapse into a tangled piled of hell after a number of days of use.
I love the idea put into the remote, in addition-three well-sized, understated buttons. Two convex, one concave. Easy to finger without using your eyes.
As noted, they sound great-but so do a variety of hideous audio products. We’ll always take the union of of design and performance over a sloppy attempt at the latter alone. [ Jays ]
