Beats Mixr are high-performance headphones for demanding music lovers. A wearer who wants to listen to the external environment can swivel the ear cups by 180 degrees. The cast-aluminium loop keeps the lower area rigid while supporting both the ear cups and the usually weak hinge area. Moreover, the headphones facilitate proper horizontal rotation and ensure protection of the audio cable.
Statement by the Jury
The jury was impressed with the innovative mechanism with which the ear cups can be swivelled. The use of aluminium not only contributes to stability but also gives the headphones a high-grade appearance.
