As a longtime fan of Urbanears, I was excessively excited when we got the first Zinken over-ear models in.
New Urbanears?! Yes, please! At $149.99, these professional-style headphones are ready to leap off the shelves and into the club. As is standard with Urbanears, they come in a vast variety of colors.
So what makes the Zinken so fancy? Well, for one thing, the headphones are equipped with a versatile set of inputs. Need to plug in to an amp? Zinken has a 6.3mm (1/4 inch) output cable. Need to make a dash for the bus to the soundtrack of your iPhone? Zinken has a 3.5mm (1/8 inch) output cable, too.
The Zinken model is particularly solid, with two metal hinges of fair bulk that allow the speakers themselves to swivel and turn freely. The headphones are very well-made, with no ragged seams or jutting plastic. The fit over the ears is tight, so people with glasses and earrings, beware!
They sound good, like you’d expect from a pair of headphones in that price range. Urbanears have a particularly well-developed balance of treble and bass, and the Zinkens are no exception. It’s hard not to dance with these guys on!
Style, color, and sound. Come demo our floor model in South Burlington!
