As wireless headphones become more common, the Fermata is a convenient way for style-conscious consumers to both charge and display their aural paraphernalia. Design company Twelve South's attractive headphone stand hides the clumsy wires that come with most charging devices, turning headphone charging from a discreet act into one worth displaying.
Today, headphones have become as much a statement about one's style as they are a conduit for listening to one's music. As such, manufacturers put effort into creating aesthetically attractive products, whether for wearing or for displaying in general. The Fermata stand takes advantage of these designs, putting them on display rather than squirreling them away.
In terms of specs, the Fermata comes with a cleverly incorporated reversible Micro USB charger built in. It also has a second USB port, just in case consumers' headphones don't accept Micro USB.
