April 17th, 2012 in In The Media, Product NewsNo Comments

You may have noticed from recent posts, there is some seriously intense design focus being put into the headphone market at the moment and we are all, it would seem, the benefactors.

The latest, and most exciting news from this ongoing product battle is that The Red Dot Design Awards has named the Incase Sonic Over Ear Headphones the overall Product Design winner, chosen from more than 4500 entries, which included submissions from more than 1800 companies and designers from all over the globe.

For those of you who don’t know, winning a Red Dot Product Design Award is one of the most prestigious awards any product design can achieve. To highlight the significance of Incase’s win, previous Red Dot award winners include Bose, BMW, Apple, LG, Adidas and Nokia just to name a few.

As Incase explain:

“As a recipient of the red dot award, Sonic is being celebrated for its fine design language and was deemed an inspiration to the experts on the jury panel. Featuring graceful curves and hidden joints, the seamless design of Sonic maintains smooth contours and an exceptionally clean look while taking into account biomechanics. By matching the natural shape of the ear and the head, Sonic delivers improved fit, comfort and sound isolation, reducing unwanted external noise. Sonic maintains an understated elegance while delivering a smooth and even response across the entire audio spectrum for a clear, natural sound that accurately reproduces the source audio.”
