Phiaton Corporation has just introduced its first Bluetooth headset, the PS 20 BT. It sports Bluetooth 3.0 and has Echo-Off noise reduction. Intended for both music and calls, it has an inline remote and a full complement of buttons rather than a single multi-function input for better control over music.
Phiaton, maker of premium personal audio gear and accessories, recently announced it will begin to offer its products in the US market, beginning with its flagship, studio-grade MS 400 headphones. From the company's Moderna Series, these headphones are loud both visually and aurally, due to their bright-red finish and 40mm (about 1.6 inches), 32-ohm Electrodynamic drivers that can take a maximum input of 1,000mW. Each speaker is housed in a lightweight yet stout carbon graphite fiber pod, with the total weight coming in at 0.4lbs.
Cresyn's new Phiaton audio label has announced this week that it will begin its lineup with several audio devices, including its first docking audio systems. The MS600 (shown) is designed to cradle the iPod but will separate itself from most speaker docks through its style; the device will mimic the automotive theme of the company's existing headphones with a carbon-fiber look and tube-shaped satellites, the company says. It will also produce more power than most iPod docks with as much as 60 watts of power and a built-in amp. The MS600 releases in March and should receive pricing closer to its ship date.
