Ergonomically, the new PSB M4U 1 still features a tangle-free cord and gyro-suspended ear pads. Easy folding for convenient travel and storage, the new PSB headphone also comes standard with a travel case and plug adapters.
According to PSB Founder and speaker designer Paul Barton, "Our first headphone the M4U 2 has enjoyed a fantastic reception since its introduction a year ago. One recurring request we have had though was to make a simpler version for those who primarily listen in quiet environments and/or may have their own headphone amplifier. For those listeners, the M4U 1 will give them the same great PSB performance and comfort but at a lower price. Of course, for some, headphones are as much about fashion as sound so they asked us to offer our headphones in exciting colors. For them, we are pleased to announce M4U models are now available in a variety of colors."
M4U 1 will be available in November in Baltic Gray or Monza Red gloss finish with high-gloss headband and brushed aluminum accents for $300 MSRP. Along with its current Black Diamond finish, M4U 2 will be available in Arctic White in November at the same $400 MSRP.
