When Louis Vuitton first announced that it was coming out with earphones, many of us were surprised. Who’d have thought that the purveyor of luxurious travel is into the audio game? Launched last year, the Louis Vuitton state-of-the-art Horizon wireless earphone system is developed by specialist Master & Dynamic, a New York-based audio brand company.
This year, the storied French house is back with yet another set of surprises, coming in the form of new colours and finishes, enhanced audio performance as well as the latest features to let you enjoy the best sound without compromising on cool. These super stylish auditory accoutrements bear Louis Vuitton’s signature motifs such as the LV monogram and the Monogram flowers, and are available in five colours: Neon yellow, bright red, pristine white, jet black as well as soft pink. The charging case also now comes in a new graphite shade, mirroring the design of the Tambour Horizon connected watch.
Besides the aesthetic upgrade, audiophiles will be delighted to know that the earphones now come with active noise-cancelling mode to decrease external noise, and ambient listening mode.
Other enhancements include: Extended battery life (to 30 hours in total), double microphones in each earphone, wireless charging as well as a more precise LED battery indicator readout on the charging case.
