New Massdrop NuForce EDC In-Ear Monitors Drops June 1
NuForce has built their reputation on providing music enthusiasts with affordable in-ear monitors. Now pairing with Massdrop, both companies promise these buds will be your new everyday pair. How so? The earbud housings are ergonomically-shaped to sit comfortably and securely inside of the conch of your ear. The detachable cable, which is held to the housing by a two-pin connector, is braided which prevents tangling and premature wear and tear.
When it comes to sound, Massdrop NuForce EDC IEMs are said to provide audio that is “spacious, detailed, musical, and coherent, with a bit of extra bass.” It does so with a single 6 mm dynamic driver “with the left and right channels closely matched for a cleaner, more accurate sound.”
NuForce was a company of Hi-End speakers started in Milpitas, California. It owns the technology of developing Class D amplifiers and has received many awards from audiophile magazines in the US and Japan, which has made NuForce a leading brand in the audio systems market.
If interested head over to Massdrop now to request notification of when the Massdrop goes live. You can also mark your calendars for Thursday, June 1 at 6 a.m. PST.
