Lightweight Headphone Amplifiers

The Nexum Aqua is the World's Lightest No-Battery Music Enhancer

— August 10, 2015 — Tech
The Nexum Aqua is a headphone attachment that enhances and amplifies sound quality. This device is the world's lightest audio enhancer. The sound it creates is studio-quality, which is comparable to large sound systems and stereo devices.

The most impressive feature of the Nexum Aqua is the battery-free capability, which means no charging is required. Instead of a charger there is a micro USB cable embedded into the headphones that draws power through the device it is connected to. In addition, its tiny size makes it lightweight and convenient to use on to go.

This small yet extremely practical device is stylishly made from metal. This specially designed sound amplifier is designed strictly for headphones. By catering to commuters and travelers, the sound-enhancing device will improve music and audio by conveying pure sounds.
