Nuraphones update adds noise-cancellation and 'transparency' mode
When I reviewed the Nuraphones, I was impressed. The unusual in-ear/over-ear design might look weird, but it actually works very well -- and the personalized audio profiles are impressive. Makers, Nura, were a newcomer, but the build quality and attention to detail were better than many companies that have been in the game for several years. Not everything was perfect though. The physical controls were limited, and there wasn't even a way to know they were charging/charged.
Nura's headphones custom fit music to match your hearing
When it comes to listening to music, most headphones are equivalent to an audio "magnifying glass" -- they amplify whatever sound is fed into them. Nura and its semi-eponymous Nuraphones ($399/£349) aim to be more like prescription specs for your ears, by analyzing your hearing and creating a bespoke audio profile. It's an interesting idea, and an even more interesting design.
