Co-written with Tishin Donkersley Over-the-ear. On-the-ear. In-the-ear. Which music listening method is ideal for your ears? At CES 2016 we saw some awesome wireless, noise-cancelling, and high-res audio earphones that delivered optimal sound quality at affordable prices. HUSH ear buds HUSH ear buds were developed by a 23-year-old college student out of the need to get some sleep and block out snoring roommates and dorm hallway parties. Co-founder Daniel Lee and his team set out to build HUSH, wireless ear buds that blends noise-masking tech with soothing sounds to help users get some Zzz’s. The ear buds are paired with a smartphone where the user can choose between soothing sounds such as the ocean or rainfall, notification filters so you don’t miss an emergency call, and even a HUSH tracker in case you lose a bud. The company said the ear buds emit “a fraction of the radiation that normal Bluetooth headsets emit during a single phone call by storing audio files on the earplugs and playing them back locally.” Each set comes with a selection of tips, a storing case that doubles as a charging case. HUSH ear buds are available for $150.00. We caught up with Daniel at 2016 CES ShowStoppers, watch our interview and demo of the product.
