Fresh wood headphones Dec 03, 2008 at 10:38
It's no secret that Lifelounge loves Parra and his trademarked style. So much so that we have interviewed him for the latest edition of Lifelounge Magazine - The Dirty Edition dropping in two weeks! Anyhow, the great man has teamed up with The Perfect Unison to create these simply stunning minimalist wooden headphones. They are manufactured in Finnish birch  wood (insert shudder) by David Burel with the same technique as they use to make skate decks. Coming to only about 2mm they are extremely light and flexible, and let's be honest kids, freakin sexy.

The other amazing feature, thanks to the wood (yeah mother nature), is that the sound quality is brilliant. This version will be available at The Lazy Dog in Paris where Parra will launch his new solo show.

Yeah, way to stand out from the white headphone crowd, which is getting increasingly more and more difficult.

Thanks for your helpful reply, Jay. Unfortunately, I am unable to fly to France for the show as it will conflict with the 2008 ISC (Internet Snark Conference), at which I am a guest speaker. Regards, Ryz. PS: It appears as though the link you have provided is incorrect. I hope you will take more time in the future to proofread your posts.
