Lightwear Headphones Hp1
Perfect fit for Instant Disc Audio Cp1/Cp2
The km5 wireless CD players Instant Disc Audio "Cp1" and "Cp2," currently on sale, have been purchased by many people at BEAMS as Reiwa-era CD players that exhibit a presence as interior items with a simple and minimalist design. The development of <Hp1> began with the aim of creating an item that has a sense of unity with the Cp series. We aimed for a design that combines the '80s - '90s analog feel of CDs with modern smartness.
＜Design＞
Sophisticated lightweight design with a new retro feel. The polished, high-quality stainless steel band and minimalist housing, combining circles and squares, elegantly assert their presence. The controls are ergonomically shaped to naturally fit your thumb, allowing intuitive operation of power, volume adjustment, playback/pause, and track skipping/rewinding directly from the headphones. When paired with a smartphone, you can access the voice assistant of your respective OS. Available in two color variations, white and black. The ear cushions, made of a pleasant-to-the-touch fabric, are easily interchangeable with a magnetic attachment. The white model comes with two colors, light grey and turquoise, while the black model comes with black and carmine. Enjoy coordinating freely to match your fashion and mood of the day.
＜Function＞
Equipped with Bluetooth 5.4 and 40mm high-quality drivers, it delivers powerful sound with clear and expansive bass to treble, exceeding its size. With the included dedicated USB cable, you can charge and also enjoy wired playback via USB-C connection to smartphones and other devices. Digital connection allows for noise-less and lossless audio, and even if the battery runs out, you can connect it to your smartphone or PC and use it. It supports up to 24 hours of continuous playback on a single charge, features a transparent mode that naturally incorporates ambient sounds, a noise-canceling mode that cuts out distractions, and a high-quality microphone with call noise cancellation. You can use it comfortably in various daily scenarios, whether you want to naturally incorporate ambient sounds or focus on your music.
