    Cat ear head phones

    https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/a...ear-headphones

    Summary:

    -Headphones with removable 3.5mm jack or USB charger, microphone on the cord.
    -"Cat ears" on the top with functioning speakers.
    -LED light accents.

    No this is not my project and I'm not advertising, probably won't even get a pair, but I know many people that will go completely crazy over them.

    external speaker on the headphones... kinda defeats the purpose , but hey , at least they look cute, faint cyberpunk catgirl vibe.

    Kind of amused. I imagine some DJs out there could have fun with them.

    Guildie of mine was losing his mind over them today trying to order a pair. Was like a fat kid in a candy store.

    Why not just buy headphones, some cat ears and glue them together?

    Oh, and the amount of money they have already raised is amazing.

    20 Hz to 20 KHz only? They could have at least added a better frequency range! >_< what a waste! And they don't even announce impedance and sensitivity. These LOOK awesome, but these aren't something we want just for looks, they have to SOUND great. Bah.

    Form is not superior to function. Especially in a device such as these, they should have tried to get function AND form both working well. At such a low frequency range, no real music lover will actually use these...

    Totally pointless, but they look kawaii so they'll sell like hot pancakes. Can't believe no-one thought of that design before?

    They're a cool idea, but even at anime/gaming cons I would be so ashamed of wearing them... I don't know why anyone would wear them in public =\

    I wouldn't wear them, I don't like the cat ears.

    The idea of having external speakers is cool, but only if you can manually change which ones are active.

    I'd wear them anywhere - if only they were any good. Why be ashamed of who you are? The more confidence you show in yourself, the better the world will react to you

    I've been to quite a few anime convection and there are some pretty shameless people there.
    These aren't the spoilers you're looking for.

    Move along.

    For those times when having your headphones on really loud and annoying strangers just wasn't enough?

    Does kinda defeat the point of headphones, what's the idea (too lazy to read/click), you have to go to the other side of the room, so you flip a switch (i assume speakers being on is not default) and take the headphones off to go do shit?

    I think they look childish - I wouldn't wear these at work or during a normal commute.

    It isn't being ashamed of who I am - I wear nerdy/gaming shirts and such out and about, but this is sort of like wearing one of those fleece cat ear hats around outside of a convention; I personally just think it's sort of cringe-y. Again, my personal opinon; if someone wants to wear it by all means.
