AirMode Cable Makes Your Headphones Wireless

Wireless is the way of the future. After the iPhone 7 ditched the 3.5mm jack many were frightened they’d have to throw away their beloved headphones and opt for a Lightning jack based headphone or a wireless model. While a reason to buy new headphones is always fun, there are a few solutions with one of the coolest being AirMode, a cable that makes your headphones wireless.

AirMode Cable Makes Your Headphones Wireless

AirMode can be purchased in three different forms: MMCX cable, a 2.5mm cable or 3.5mm cable to suit your headphones or in-ear monitors. The cable is actually compatible with major brands both commercial and pro including, Master & Dynamic, Onkyo, V-Moda, Marshall, Sol Republic, Bang & Olfusen, AIAIAI, PSB Speakers, Beats, Monster, OPPO, and more. Regardless of the type of connection, each cable is comprised of double-layered fabric for durability and features an in-line mic and controller. This remote is used to switch back and forth between tracks and take calls. The multifunction button is programmed to call on your phone’s personal assistant (Siri, Google Now) as well as pause and play your music. The unit also houses the battery which is charged using a microUSB to USB cable.

Taking after Bluetooth-based earbuds, the cable acts as a wireless neckband attaching between both ear cups. This design means that your headphones need to be dual port or have the ability to be detachable in one of the ear cups.  Then you pair your device over Bluetooth 4.1 and you’re all set.

But, I bet you’re wondering how does it sound? We are hoping pretty good since AirMode uses aptX technology which promises CD-like quality over a frequency response range of 20-20,000 Hertz. When the cable is fully charged it will provide liberating hands-freedom for up to 6 hours. P.S. AirMode takes about 2 hours to fully charge.

Audio Nation is currently holding a Kickstarter campaign to bring the product to life. For now, you can still pledge $37 to receive AirMode by March 2017.
