Today Nordic Hardware are having a go with a pretty unusual, or rather unique product. It's a set of headphones from Zalman sporting 6 discreet built in mini-speakers for true 5.1 surround sound in a pair of headphones. The idea sounds pretty cool, but does it really work?
- We've been trying to give you some insight in a wider range of areas of consumer electronics here at NordicHardware lately. We've started reviewing speakers and DVD-players etc. and we'll expand by covering more areas this fall. But today we have a pretty unique product to show you.
The product we have here today is the Zalman Theatre 6 Real Surround Sound Headphones or ZM-RS6F for short. With home cinemas becoming ever more popular with each day that goes by Zalman is targeting a rapidly growing market with their 5.1 Headphones.
I think this product is interesting because of a few reasons. First of they are one of a kind as of yet. There's no other headphones on the market with 6 discreet channels on the market that I'm aware of. Secondly they represent a cheap option to get 5.1 sound. And last but not least I've been hearing that this is probably the first of many similar products to come, so we at NordicHardware feel it's important to give you a taste of what the future might hold.
