Good news, if you were impressed by Skunk Juice’s offerings earlier this year at CES 2011, you will be pleased to hear that the company plans to offer and showcase their new Bluetooth headphones at CES 2012 which will follow in their previous designs that feature magnetic attachments.
For those unfamiliar, Skunk Juice’s offerings in the past have been a pair of earbuds, which does seem somewhat normal, but what makes it unique is how the cable from the earbuds to the audio jack is connected via a pair of magnets. What this would allow is for users to share their audio with other Skunk Juice owners, and it will also allow for “safe” disconnection, much like how Apple’s MagSafe power adapter works by disconnecting the magnets if you trip or get it caught accidentally, as opposed to ripping it out of the audio jack completely.
In the case of Skunk Juice’s Bluetooth headphone, it will feature a magnetic Bluetooth receiver that can be attached/detached from the headphones so that it can be moved from one device to another. No word on how much it will cost or its specifications, but the headphones are expected to be unveiled at CES 2012, so in the mean time you can head on over to Skunk Juice’s website for additional information.
