Italian audio device manufacturer, V-Moda, have released their new Bluetooth speaker and headphone amplifier, the ‘Remix’. Starting at a price of $300, the company has incorporated 3D printed custom-made parts, such as luxury shields and caps for headphones and ear buds, that range between $40 to $370,000.
The Italian company, which is based in Milan, began working with 3D printing in 2015, with the intent of offering more customization to their customers. Today, the company continues to work with 3D printing to offer the same customization to the luxury market.
“After developing our critically acclaimed headphones, we felt it was time to evolve, to “remix” the V-MODA sound into a new form,” explained V-Moda CEO Val Kolton. “We already had our innovative headphones with their world-renowned sound, materials, and personalization: why can’t a speaker achieve the same goals and excel at the same vision?”
