Interchangeable MP3 Headgear

SOL Republic Tracks Headphone Gets Seriously Slicked Out

— October 21, 2011 — Tech
In addition to high-end headphones such as Beats by Dre or anything Bose puts out, there's the SOL Republic Tracks Headphone which proves to be just as badass.

The SOL Republic Tracks Headphone features interchangeable earmuffs that make them more travel-friendly. The brand has integrated a new polymer that they call FlexTech, which they guarantee makes the product virtually indestructible. The Tracks ear cushion offers extreme comfort since it's lightweight and large; this will reduce pressure on the ear.

As for the sound itself, it features a V8 Sound Engine for crisp, clean sounds that easily rivals any other brand on the market. These have a 3.5mm audio jack, which means it'll work for more devices whether it's smartphones or MP3 players. Perhaps this will be the pair of headphones you've been searching for.
