Remember PUMP Audio and their stellar bass response packed into an over-ear wireless headphone? They are back with an in-ear make for commuters and fitness buffs. Meet PUMP Audio MIX Wireless.
PUMP Audio MIX Wireless: For Bass Heads!
We tried out PUMP Audio headphones in both the on-ear (PUMP Pure) and over-ear (PUMP Zeus) models. We found PUMP’s sound signature errs to a warmer tone with a little extra in the bass. But don’t be alarmed, the bass is controlled, natural, and present without dominating your mids and highs. We imagine PUMP Audio MIX Wireless to deliver the same quality of sound – in a much smaller and compact form.
As described by PUMP Audio, “The obvious difference between PUMP Audio headphones and other brands is the quality and depth of the bass and sub-bass reproduction.”
“We haven’t simply sacrificed the rest of the range so that all you hear is heavy bass. Instead we’ve painstakingly created a totally unique sound signature that gives you immense bass, but with balance, clarity, and high fidelity Audiophile quality sound through the entire range.”
Despite the heavy bass line, the earbuds appear to be lightweight with minimal additional hardware. That  being said, the earbuds are held together by a flat wire which keeps the buds from tangling. The cable also features an in-line mic and controller for users to easily take calls and switch back and forth between tracks.
When it comes to connectivity, PUMP Audio worked with ISSC Technologies to develop a CSR chipset which allows for reliable and quick connectivity while recreating the same sound signature.
PUMP Audio MIX Wireless is available via Indiegogo at the Super Early Bird price of $98 before it hits the market at a suggested retail price of $159. Orders ship to backers in December.
P.S. If you don’t believe the headphones hold true, PUMP offers a 90 day money-back guarantee.
