Detroit has been experiencing a resurgence of late and it’s companies like Shinola that are leading the way. Shinola makes everything from watches, bags and backpacks, bicycles and many of life’s accessories including audio gear. Now, Shinola has ventured into the personal audio market with the Canfield Headphone Collection. Shinola has spent two years engineering and fine tuning this collection using quality materials, finishes, and processes resulting in a sound signature that’s warm and expansive.
“This introduction is special,” said Shinola’s founder, Tom Kartsotis. “It speaks to our love of music and to the soul of Detroit. It is rare that one product can capture and transmit this much emotion. People always smile when they hold the headphones, feel the quality and then listen. We are so proud of this effort from our Audio team. Their tireless efforts have created a product that personifies what Shinola has come to stand for.”
The new collection will consist of four styles: The Canfield Over-Ear, The Canfield On-Ear, The Canfield In-Ear Monitor, and The Canfield Pro In-Ear Monitor.
The Canfield Over-Ear Headphones produce a clean sound that’s acoustically tuned and tested in Detroit. The Canfield Over-Ear Headphones use a 50-mm dynamic driver with a neutral frequency response to bring music to life. They feature stainless steel components, lambskin ear cushions, leather headband, and an in-line microphone. The Canfield Over-Ear Headphones come in black and cognac and retail for $595.
The Canfield On-Ear Headphones are tuned for a precise sound with their 40MM Shinola Dynamic Transducer. They feature stainless steel components, lambskin ear cushions, leather headband, and an in-line microphone. The Canfield On-Ear Headphones in black and cognac retail for $495 and the Canfield On-Ear Headphones in black PVD retail for $550.
Developed and tested with Campfire Audio out of Portland, Oregon, the Canfield In-Ear Monitors are designed to sound great for hours of comfortable use. Memory foam and silicone ear tips with a dynamic driver bring out nuances in music. The Canfield In-Ear Monitors retail for $195.
Also produced with Campfire Audio, the Canfield Pro In-Ear Monitors are powered by a quad balanced armature receiver to bring out every possible element in music. Crafted to be endlessly comfortable, the Pro In-Ear monitors allow music to sound the way musicians intended it to be heard. The Canfield Pro In-Ear Monitors retail for $495.
The Canfield Collection is available in time for holiday gift giving.
