Blue Introduces New Mo-Fi Headphones – Headphones With Built-In Audiophile Amplifier and More

Purveyors of audio capturing devices, Blue Microphones is now reinventing their version of the headphone as we know it. Eliminating any pre-conceived notions about how and what headphones are supposed to be, Blue began designing their new Mo-Fi headphones with unrivaled fidelity in mind that would translate equally across all listening devices.

By perfectly matching their 240 milliwatt built-in amplifier to the 50mm drivers, Blue claims that the 100% analog signal path will   translate accurately from monitors to headphones. The design of the Mo-Fi headphone is also one of a kind. Blue took many factors into consideration including, but not limited to, comfort.

Mo-Fi from Blue has finally arrived — will it change the way you wear headphones?

Mo-Fi headphones by Blue Microphones are available now for $349 MSRP from Guitar Center, Musician’s Friend, Sweetwater, and Amazon, and is coming soon to retailers worldwide. Check out even more unique details direct from Blue press release:

Blue Microphones today announces the release of Mo-Fi, the first headphone that features a built-in audiophile amplifier matched to high-powered, precision drivers for consistent accuracy on every device—from studio gear to laptops, tablets, and phones. Mo-Fi’s unprecedented design and build introduces a new level of sound quality, comfort, and personalized fit never before available. Mo-Fi establishes the entirely new category of powered headphones, and delivers studio-quality audio on every device so you can track, mix, and really enjoy music anywhere.

“When studio monitors transitioned from passive to active, everyone benefitted—and now we’re bringing that innovation to headphones,” said John Maier, CEO of Blue. “With a built-in amp and high-powered drivers, Mo-Fi delivers astounding accuracy, unrivaled fidelity, and detailed imaging, no matter what source you’re plugged in to. Mo-Fi frees you from the confines of the studio, enabling you to take studio-quality listening everywhere and create mixes that translate across all systems.”

For height adjustment, Mo-Fi’s pivoting-arm design allows for unprecedented range of motion and a personalized fit. The earcups simply float into place or fully extend out of the way when worn around the neck. Ditching the one-tension-fits-all approach, Blue incorporated a headband adjustment knob that allows you to dial-in the perfect pressure and tightness. This design also improves sound isolation and reduces ambient noise—perfect for noisy public areas or loud recording sessions.

Mo-Fi’s intelligent power handling ensures that the headphones are always ready for action. The rechargeable battery, charged via micro USB, lets you rock out with 12-14 hours of actual play time. Mo-Fi knows when the headphones have been removed and automatically turns off to save power. And even if the battery runs out, Mo-Fi will continue to play in the Off setting, eliminating music blackouts once and for all.
