Quickly charge your headphones with your first cup of coffee in the morning and then off you go? No obstacle for the new MU3 wireless in-ear headphones from the traditional British brand KEF. Eternal charging is a thing of the past, because the stylish and powerful in-ear accessories can be used for one hour within five minutes and have an operating time of over 24 hours when fully charged.
With your favorite music on your ears while jogging on the
go or making important phone calls in a noisy environment, thanks to the
specially coordinated Active Noise Cancellation technology, this is possible
without any problems.
The ergonomic design of the headphones, which are perfectly
balanced in the ear thanks to their intelligent weighting, ensures a
comfortable and safe wearing experience. The Mu3 not only exude a sculptural
look and feel, but also ensure exceptionally stable connections with all iOS
and Android devices using Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. The wireless in-ears were
designed by British visionary and industrial designer Ross Lovegrove and
developed by the KEF acoustics team to deliver pristine, high-definition sound.
The Mu3 headphones from KEF (OVP 299.00 euros), combined with beauty and
technological ingenuity, are available online and in stores.
KEF's typical, pure and precise sound
The audio performance of the Mu3 headphones benefits from
the specially tailored Active Noise Cancellation technology from KEF. It makes
it possible to eliminate outside noise without compromising the details that
bring the music to life. The Mu3 deliver the unmatched signature sound of KEF.
Each of the sculptural enclosures of the Mu3 contains a dynamic 8.2mm
full-range driver that has been expertly acoustically tuned by the KEF
engineering team to deliver an exceptionally dynamic and well-balanced sound
with rich mids, detailed lows and crisp highs. Every nuance and subtlety of the
recording comes into its own when you listen.
To ensure that the Mu3 headphones look as good as they
sound, KEF once again worked with Ross Lovegrove, the designer who also designed
the iconic KEF MUON and the KEF MUO Bluetooth speakers. Ross Lovegrove, known
for his innovative approach and flowing, sculptural forms, gives the sound a
new dimension. With a design that embraces both beauty and technological
ingenuity, Lovegrove's ongoing collaboration with KEF is an exercise in
aesthetic and technical excellence.
The Mu3 headphones may be small, but their sculptural
appearance offers sophistication in compact dimensions. The pure and clear
aesthetics complement KEF's design viewpoint without a glitch. Great design be
situated about more than style; the Mu3 headphones offer quality and perfect
ergonomics at the same time.
Compact, ergonomic design
Thanks to their intelligent weighting, the Mu3 headphones
are perfectly balanced in the ear so that they cannot fall out. A thorough
analysis of different ear shapes and sizes has led to the development of four
slightly different sized earbuds designed to rest on the auricle for the most
comfortable fit for your ears while also providing a perfect seal for noise
isolation and one to offer a secure hold.
Everytime and everywhere
The Mu3 frees the listener from annoying cables thanks to
the stable, latency-free Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. The audio performance of
the Mu3 is further improved by the simultaneous transmission, in which both
headphones receive a signal at the same time. This is not the usual approach
where audio signals are sent to one headphone and relayed to the other, which
creates the risk of latency. Coupled with Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity,
simultaneous transmission means that the Mu3 headphones deliver superior
performance, are easy to connect, and are exceptionally stable on both iOS and
Android devices.
Once set up easily, automatic pairing makes listening to the
Mu3 a hassle-free experience. The headphones also have Ambient Mode, which
partially deactivates active noise cancellation at the touch of a button and
instead plays the sound recorded by the microphones through the headphones,
bypassing passive noise cancellation and allowing you to immediately see what's
going on around you.
The Mu3 are also equipped with high-capacity, quickly
rechargeable batteries that last a full day even when the Bluetooth function
and noise cancellation are activated. Thanks to the splash-proof design, your
headphones stay safe even in the rain.
KEF was founded voguish 1961 by Raymond Cooke MBE
(1925-1995) and was originally based in a Nissen hut on the site of a
metalworking company called Kent Engineering & Foundry (hence the name KEF)
near Maidstone, Kent. Cooke, a former BBC electrical engineer, was keen to
experiment with new materials and technologies to create products with superior
sound quality that could reproduce recordings as naturally as the original
demonstration. KEF's philosophy has always pursued the goal of finding better
and better ways of realistic sound reproduction. The company is part of the
Gold Peak Group and sells its products in more than 60 countries. From the very
beginning, KEF loudspeakers have stood out for their leading innovations;
