jbl_speakers.jpgFeed your aural needs with yet another release from JBL. The Reference Series Headphones.

With a family consisting of four variations there’s a set to any suitor. Tiny ear plugs, noise cancellation, and wireless freedom bring innovation in otherworldly iPod appropriate earphones.

200’s:
The JBL Reference 200s are in-ear models, an alternative to standard headphones, and fit most anywhere (suggested shirt pocket) while still providing full-spectrum sound. The JBL Reference 210 features comfortable foam ear pads and a tangle-free wire system. The JBL Reference 220 come with foam ear pads, a bunch of comfort add-ons(please don’t wear the chin strap), and feature high-quality mini transducers that make competing earphone models sound non competing.

400’s:
The 400 “front row…center” series… features the JBL Reference 410; a foldup, lightweight, and compact device with an on-ear design. Packing impressive sound, synonymous with JBL; are the 410's 40mm transducers. For the spoiled comfort and style; the Reference 420 has a volume control and genuine leather headband with leather earpads. With its advanced transducers, the 420 provides crystal-clear pitch and zero distortion (for all your bzeek bzeek- and whomp whomp). JBL Reference 420's are available in black or white and will be around $192.

500’s:
Expert noise cancellation in the JBL Reference 500 Series, from all the world’s commotion.
The JBL Reference on-ear design 510 has an in-line controller that upon powering, eliminates 70 percent of ambient noise. The 510 is great for flights or travel noise and due to its design, easily folds. The JBL Reference 520 is a mid-size over-ear design, and sports genuine leather throughout, with four noise-canceling settings, including total isolation. It also features an amazing voice-pass button that allows users to communicate without having to remove the headphones. Eco smart:, the 520 comes with rechargeable batteries and a universal battery charger.

600’s:
The most evolved of the family; the 600’s come with the portability of advanced Bluetooth technology. The JBL Reference 610 allows for music play without the constraints of wires with its iPod dock connector Bluetooth module and features integrated controls on the earpiece that adjust volume, select tracks, and play or pause songs. If and when you do chose to plug in;, the JBL Reference 610 comes equipped with a 1.75m cable. Like the 520, rechargeable batteries and a universal battery charger come handy with the 610.

Designed to suit all levels and needs of listeners, and sold with all the accessories one may need- the JBL Reference Series pleases. Suggested prices will range from $79.95 to $299.95(as listed), and will be available starting in October. (Besides the JBL Reference 610, which will be available starting in November).
