STOW, Ohio, April 25, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Moms work hard all year, and on Mother's Day, what would be better than a gift that lets them relax and enjoy their favorite music? Audio-Technica's stylish FashionFidelity™, sport-fit Player's Line, versatile Communications and QuietPoint® Noise-Cancelling headphones are sure to be appreciated by moms everywhere.
Audio-Technica's FashionFidelity headphones bring glamor, style and fun to music listening. Small and lightweight, the ATH-CKF300 Bloom In-ear Headphones (SRP: US$29.95) is offered in a variety of vibrant colors and matching floral carrying case designs, including lime green, purple, mint green and white, and comes with interchangeable XS, S and M sized soft eartips.
The FashionFidelity Bijoué ATH-CKF303 in-ear headphones (SRP: US$29.95) have a distinctive faceted jewel-cut design that complements any wardrobe from elegant to outrageous. They're available in a bold color palette including Black Diamond, Chocolate Mint, Milky Pink, Pop Pink, Shiny Purple and White Crystal. Like all Audio-Technica headphones, they deliver clear, detailed and immersive sound. The ATH-CKF303 comes with three sizes of eartips – it's one fashion accessory that always fits perfectly.
The Player's Line ATH-CP500i and ATH-CP500 in-ear headphones (SRP: US$59.95, US$49.95) are ideal for fitness-oriented moms. Both feature a new ear-hanger design and loop support that provide a stable, comfortable fit even during intense workouts. The ATH-CP500i includes an integrated mic and controls for iPhone™, iPad® and iPod® and an in-line three-button remote that provides the ability to control volume and music playback functions. The remote also lets iPhone users answer calls over the headphones, or while talking via Skype or VoIP on an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch®. The sweat-proof, washable headphones come with a clothing clip to keep the cord out of the way, a 1.2 m extension cord and a carrying pouch.
Moms with smartphones will appreciate the ATH-CKL202iS "dip" in-ear communications headphones (SRP: US$24.95) that feature an in-line mic with controls to start/end calls; and play, pause and skip forward and backward through songs. The ATH-CKL202iS, which allows you to "dip" into the color of audio, comes in five appealing colors including Black, White, Blue, Pink and Red and includes a cord wrap and four sizes of eartips.
Audio-Technica's ATH-ANC23 and ATH-ANC25 QuietPoint active noise-cancelling headphones effectively block out environmental noise, letting moms enjoy their favorite music without distraction. The in-ear ATH-ANC23 (SRP: US$99.95) features Comply™ Foam Tips that form to the shape of the ear canal for superior sound and unmatched comfort. It has a handy in-line volume control and like the ATH-ANC25, its audio functions in passive mode even if the batteries run out. For those who prefer on-ear headphones, the ATH-ANC25 (SRP: US$79.95) offers an appealing combination of immersive sound, exceptional noise isolation and comfortable fit.
