Blue Lola headphones
Audio manufacturer Blue has unveiled the Lola headphones. They follow a similar design language to the Mo-Fi headphones, and feature the same 50mm custom-designed drivers. The new model features a higher, slim-fit headphone than the one found on Mo-Fi, but keeps the four-point multi-jointed linkage system. The ear cups are supposedly shaped more like ears than the typical headphones in an effort to provide a tight seal that both improves sound isolation and reduces sound leakage.
The Blue Lola headphones are available now for £200 and come supplied with a carry case and two high-quality audio cables: one 1.5m and one 3m, with in-line controls for Apple devices.
