# Neck-Located Bluetooth Earphones The Music Wrap M25s Protect Your Ears From Damage By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2016-02-04 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/m25-bluetooth-earphones References: [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/574847515/music-wrap-your-personal-sound-space-on-the-go) & [musicwrap.co](http://www.musicwrap.co/) The Music Wrap M25 is an innovative audio-listening device that combines the very best features of regular Bluetooth earphones and audio speakers. What's unique about this contraption is that it sits around your neck and creates a so-called 'personal sound field'. The unique shape of the speakers creates a 'directional audio' effect that ensures that audio is transmitted directly to the user without infringing on their alertness or indeed causing any kind of inner ear damage. The Music Wrap M25 Bluetooth earphones kill two birds with one stone -- not only do they enable users' hands and ears to be free during listening, but they also reduce the chances that users will damage their eardrums through constant and consistent exposure to loud music, a growing problem nowadays. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 9% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Multimedia](https://www.trendhunter.com/multimedia) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Neck-located Audio Devices:** Opportunity for companies to create innovative audio devices that provide a directional audio effect while being worn around the neck. - **Personal Sound Fields:** Opportunity for companies to create audio devices that create a personal sound field for the user. - **Audio Hygiene:** Opportunity for companies to create audio devices with safety features to protect the user against hearing damage. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Consumer Electronics:** Opportunity for the consumer electronics industry to create and market neck-located audio devices. - **Healthcare:** Opportunity for the healthcare industry to leverage neck-located audio devices as a preventative measure against hearing damage. - **Music Industry:** Opportunity for the music industry to promote and endorse audio hygiene and safe listening practices among listeners. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Headband-Style Wireless Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swott.md) - [Lifestyle Open-Ear Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jbl-openear.md) - [Helmet-Friendly Open Ear Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/detachable-open-ear-headphones.md) - [Lightweight Sporty Earphone Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ports-earphones.md) - [Fashion-Forward Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/openear-earbud-concept.md) - [Personalized Sound Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mbe001-tws.md) - [Open-Air Wireless Earphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aerofit-2.md) - [Hearing Protection Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dbud-u.md) - [Collapsible Bass-Heavy Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/movengine-me800.md)
