OAKDALE, Minn. (Dec. 21, 2009) – The hands-free iPhone experience is propelled to the next level thanks to Hearing Components’ Comply™ NR-10i High Tech Noise Reduction Earphones, now available at www.apple.com/uk, the U.K.’s official Apple® Web site.
Currently boasting a five-star rating on
www.apple.com/uk, the Comply™ NR-10i earphones are a hit. As one consumer on
www.apple.com/uk states, “I absolutely love these ear buds. They are compatible with my iPhone, are comfortable to wear, and reduce noise. They make my commute down Oxford Street enjoyable since I can actually hear my music or mobile conversations.”
Designed with iPhone users in mind, the Comply™ NR-10i earphones utilize the same patented technology used by U.N. Army helicopter crews and Special Forces to offer amazing noise reduction, superior comfort and secure in-ear fit, providing clear conversations and music experiences in noisy environments.
“The iPhone has become an integral part of user’s lives - from communicating to disconnecting from the noise that surrounds them,” said Steve Thompson, director of sales and marketing for Hearing Components. “Unfortunately, standard earphones don’t fully optimize the power of the iPhone. Often, outside noise interrupts conversations or corrupts the music experience. By incorporating the Comply™ Foam Technology into the earphones, users can now appreciate the full potential of the iPhone experience.”
The
Comply™ Foam Tips included with the earphones provide superior noise reduction in both communications and music-listening situations. Made of high-tech, viscoelastic polyurethane foam, the tips conform to the individual shape of each ear canal, expanding to comfortably stay in place. The foam creates passive noise reduction by sending sound directly into the ear canal while sealing out unwanted noise. The Comply™ NR-10i earphones also have an integrated microphone/function switch on the earphone cord, which allows users to answer and end calls, and change songs with the touch of a button.
The Comply
™ NR-10i earphones are available for purchase at
www.apple.com/uk for
£79.95. The earphones come with one pair of slim-size Comply
™ Foam Tips, one pair of standard-size Comply
™ Foam Tips and a deluxe travel pouch.
