Farmingdale, NY November 16, 2017: beyerdynamic, inc. has been named as a CES 2018 Innovation Awards Honoree for its Aventho wireless headphones. Products entered in this prestigious program are judged by a preeminent panel of independent industrial designers, engineers, and members of the trade media to honor outstanding design and engineering in cutting-edge consumer electronics products across 28 product categories.

For the Aventho wireless, beyerdynamic uses Bluetooth 4.2 protocol with the aptX™ HD codec from Qualcomm®. This way, the best possible sound is guaranteed, even without wires. Additionally, beyerdynamic is working together with Mimi Hearing Technologies to allow for a truly personalized sound experience. Mimi’s sound personalization technology makes it possible to create a personal hearing profile. This profile is based on the soundcheck in the “Make it yours” (MIY) app and then uploaded directly to the Aventho wireless. This new high-end model also offers innovative operation: the right side serves as a touch gesture control pad. All functions can be activated using simple touches and gestures: next track, louder, take a call, hang up, lower volume, pause…it’s never been so easy to control your headphones, smartphone and music player app. Via the MIY app, the sensitivity of the touch control can also be adjusted to suit your individual preferences. There is also a tracking option within the app to gain an insight into your listening habits and measure duration and intensity of your daily listening. Further customization options will be made available via updates. 

 

Entries for the CES 2018 Innovation Awards are evaluated according to judging criteria such as engineering, aesthetic and design qualities, intended use/function and user value, unique/novel features present and how the design and innovation of the product directly compare to other products in the marketplace. Being an honoree means that the Aventho wireless scored highly across all judging criteria, and it joins a small percentage of other products that are given this honor each year.

 

Further commenting on the honor, Alan Feckanin, Director Americas, says “We are happy to be an honoree for Aventho wireless in the Innovation in Headphones category from CES. Many companies enter their product in the headphone category and we are excited to be named as an honoree. This recognition really shows how much innovation went into the design, engineering and craftsmanship of the Aventho wireless. In combining our leading in-class headphone technology along with our partner Mimi’s app technology to make the listening experience unique for the customer, truly the Aventho wireless is a leader within the headphones that are in the marketplace today.” 

 

The nomination comes with many benefits. As such, the Aventho wireless will be displayed proudly with the rest of the Honorees in the Innovation Showcase at CES 2018 (running Jan. 9-12, 2018 in Las Vegas, Nevada). Beginning January 9, 2018, the Aventho wireless will be on display in the highly-trafficked Innovation Awards Showcase within the Venetian Ballroom at CES Tech West, one of the most talked-about venues of the CES show. After CES 2018, the Innovation Showcase will go on the road to events all over the world and Aventho wireless will go with the Innovation Awards team for one year, so that it can be included in their traveling displays.
