At last week’s International CES Audio-Technica expanded its SonicSport fitness-oriented headphones lineup with the ATH-CKP200iS ear hook style headphones, which feature a mic, volume and control functionality.
The ATH-CKP200iS (SRP: $US44.95) offer an IPX5-certified waterproof rating and is sweat-proof and washable, while its hinged ear hook adjusts around the ears for a perfect fit. These fitness headphones come with both standard silicone and ridged XS/S/M and L eartips to provide a choice of greater sound isolation or allowing in a low amount of ambient sound for greater safety outdoors.
High end headphone maker Audio-Technica was in Las Vegas this week to celebrate its 50th anniversary, and also entered the high-end fitness headphone market with the Apple-friendly ATH-CP500i and ATH-CP500 Sport Fit In-ear Headphones. Both have an exclusive ear-hanger design and loop support system to provide a stable, comfortable fit even during intense workouts. Congrats on making it to the big 5-0 to Audio-Technia. We look forward to putting these headphones to the test later this year.
