thinksound usp1 reviewa

   Taking long walks is something that i happen to enjoy quite a bit not only because it's good for my health but also because doing so means i get to spend lots of time with all the latest headphones and earphones to reach our lab. Now as many of you are already aware wireless earphones/earsets may be getting more popular as we move forward due to their lack or wires but wired models are still leading sales and although this is primarily because the majority of people put cost over performance still there are those who care about audio quality/clarity above all else. Thinksound has released numerous award winning headphones and earphones over the years but it wasn't until just recently that they released their very first model manufactured in the USA called the USP1 which we have here with us today.


   We started thinksound™ to make headphones that we would want to listen to; and we’re not easily satisfied. They not only had to sound amazing; they had to look good, feel comfortable in your ears and be designed and manufactured responsibly too. We gave ourselves quite the challenge. Back when we set out to do this; it was unheard of in the audio industry. Over the years, other companies have taken notice. They’ve copied the design, the packaging, the accessories, and even have taken text directly from our website and catalog. While these companies and their headphones may try to look similar; it’s only skin deep. The sound, what matters most, just doesn’t compare. Don’t take our word for it either; read the reviews on our site. We’re a small company. We work hard to make extraordinary products and offer them at affordable prices and we back all of this with unmatched customer service. We’re not happy accepting “good enough” and honestly you shouldn’t be either. Thank you for supporting thinksound.


   Although the USP1 Monitor Series model is indeed assembled inside the USA it's actually made mostly out of foreign materials placed inside hand-poured metal pewter housings. Pewter metal (alloy consisting out of tin, copper, antimony and/or other harder metals) may not be as expensive and durable as for example silver but since it's softer it's a lot easier to work with and unlike silver it doesn't tarnish so we really believe thinksound was right to choose it over other materials (we've been expecting thinksound to use metal housings for one of their earsets instead of wood for a long time). For the USP1 thinksound has used their brand new precision-tuned 8mm dynamic drivers (once again voiced by their CEO and acclaimed audio engineer Aaron Fournier) that feature a frequency response of 10Hz-20KHz, 93dB +-3dB sensitivity and 16 Ohm impedance. The USP1 are compatible with both android and iOS devices and feature passive noise isolation, 45 degrees angle gold plated 3.5" plug, 4 feet long Kevlar-reinforced tangle-resistant cord and are sweat resistant.
