The Amazing Headphone turns the attention away from the quality of the headphones themselves to focus on the songs they play. That doesn't mean it doesn't offer a great audio experience, it is just that it adds a little gimmick that sets it apart from its brothers. While designers and companies continue to pursue the production of the 'lightest,' 'crispest' and overall 'mostest' ear gear out there, the Amazing Headphone offers a fun visualization of the songs the wearer is playing.
Designed by ChanHyun Park and SeJi Kim, the Amazing Headphone displays dynamic color sequences, light waves, pulsing flares and other visual elements timed to music on an OLED display, which is more artistic than simply displaying the song title.
