      “Main character energy” is a great way to put it. If I came across someone wearing these I’d have some assumptions…

      It reminds me of that Onion piece on a Kindle that loudly shouts what book you’re reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDBzQkWeQ5g

    No information about the drivers and no frequency response graphs doesn’t fill me with confidence.

      That’s because they don’t exist. It’s only a concept rendering. This site spotlights design ideas and their creators, not actual products.

    I imagine the frequency response curve is going to be a trash heap on these things. Mids? Who needs em?

    Considering I deal with people who blast their music from their phone speakers without headphones, I do not want to know what over-bassed track they’re listening to.

    Complete the effect by combining them with a wristwatch broadcasting your heart rate and the transfixed stare of Apple’s goggles.

    How fast would that battery die? Also the screens probably add substantial weight. This thing isn’t practical at all, but it is very flashy.

    Oh man, if my batteries run out on my noise cancelling headphones I leave them on so I don’t have to talk to people. Now I can enjoy the, “I know those aren’t on” line.

    This is very pointless and it just makes the headphones heavier for no benefit to the wearer
