a-day!

Tuesday, 09 March 2010 10:27 Filed under News by Daniel Andersson.

We're launching our new a-JAYS Series today.
We started working on the a-JAYS project with the idea of making some really affordable in-ear earphones without compromising on the build/audio quality. When developing new products at JAYS we believe that if something is worth doing - it is worth doing right. And we're very happy with the outcome of the a-JAYS. Hope you like them too!

The a-JAYS Series is bursting with product innovations such as the flat tangle-free TPE cable. Its width of 5mm makes it the widest flat earphone cable on the market giving your earphones an unique look.
All a-JAYS models also come in our newly developed hard case retail box. We made this re-sealable so you can use it for storing your earphones or use as a travel case which will fit all your accessories. a-JAYS Three also comes with a smaller hard case travel case that will snugly fit your earphones while on the go.

Check out more details about the a-JAYS Series here.

And keep an eye out for these bad boys in April. They're a real bargain!
 

Go Custom. Go Pro.

Today we're launching our q-JAYS Custom molds which will be available for order early April. So whether you want to experience your music collection at its most or use as personal monitors for stage performances - this is the perfect solution.

They're made in collaboration with Bellman & Symfon and are each uniquely made to fit your ears. The advantages are taylor-made fit, full isolation and the best sound possible coming out of your q-JAYS dual armature earphones. They're available in 8 different colors including black, transparent and a discreet beige (skin color). You can also, just like with our q-JAYS, use the molds with cable going straight down or upside down with the cable going behind your ears. This way you can get get rid of all cables and reduce undesired microphonics to a minimum.

Here's some links to his My old, familiar friend album and the Raconteurs' albums.

First Aid Kit about v-JAYS

Monday, 01 February 2010 12:38 Filed under Words about... by Peter Cedmer.

Just having their debut album The Big Black & The Blue released we thought Swedish band First Aid Kit would like some new great headphones from JAYS to be used on their UK tour. So we sent them the beloved v-JAYS and got this wonderful feedback.

 "Very comfortable to wear and very portable on the go. The sound is very big and detailed coming from such small headphones! The treble is fantastic! 

We also got a playlist containing some of their favourite songs to be played on Spotify.

We wish them all the best and be sure to check their Myspace out!
