Ultimate Ears Creates Pro-Quality Audio Experience for Your MP3

Ultimate Ears 700 Noise-Isolating Earphones Pack Bold Sound in a Compact, Comfortable Design

Auckland, Monday, June 15, 2009 – There’s something indescribably beautiful about great music as it’s meant to be heard – and experienced. That’s what Ultimate Ears by Logitech® has introduced with the new Ultimate Ears 700 noise-isolating earphones. The earphones deliver the kind of audio quality used by 75 percent of the world’s touring professional artists – including acclaimed rock bands; The Killers, Green Day and Fall Out Boy – all in a comfortable, compact design.

You don’t have to be a rock star to enjoy Ultimate Ears. Any way you listen to your music – from your iPod, MP3 player, or your computer – the Ultimate Ears 700 noise-isolating earphones offer superior sound without cramping your style. Unlike other high-quality in-ear earphones, the Ultimate Ears 700 earphones use a custom-tuned dual-armature microdesign that delivers highly accurate sound reproduction in a compact design – each earphone is smaller than a ten cent coin.

When you’re listening to your favorite band, with Ultimate Ears 700 earphones, the vocals sound nearly as good as they sound live. Featuring a custom-tuned dual-armature layout that separates the broad frequency response – 10 Hz to 16.5 kHz – into two high-fidelity channels per ear, the Ultimate Ears 700 earphones deliver music the way it’s meant to be heard.

“Ultimate Ears legacy of creating custom in-ear monitors for rock stars directly benefits people who love great music,” said Philippe Depallens, Logitech vice president and general manager of the Ultimate Ears product unit. “After designing thousands of in-ear monitors for professionals, we’ve put everything we know about delivering great sound quality into the Ultimate Ears 700 earphones.”
