NuForce announces budget-conscious earphones: "
Did you get a new iPod touch for the holidays? Maybe you’re just tired of the old Apple earbuds that came with your iPod Classic. Fair enough. We grew tired of them, too, and have always recommended upgrading. Starting next week, NuForce will offer two new options that’ll improve your iDevice audio reproduction without breaking the bank.
The NE-600X ($24) earphones’ unique, high-efficiency design delivers excellent bass, a harmonically correct tonality, a deeply layered soundstage and superb acoustic isolation. They’re available in black, red and lime.
Product Specs:

The NE-770X ($49) are aimed at mobile devices, as they feature non-metallic drivers that require less power to drive them properly. They produce a natural sonic signature without sacrificing dynamic punch or wide-band frequency response. The polycarbonate body is acoustically inert and lightweight.
They’re available in carbon, ice and sky colors.
