Beyerdynamic’s Big Headphone Creation Contest

 

If you haven’t seen the big Beyerdynamic contest yet, you should go to my-headphone.com immediately and participate. What’s all the fuzz about you ask?

Beyerdynamic decided to launch a contest in where everyone can create and submit a design of how you think the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro should look like. The winning design(er) get his headphone for real plus an amazing 1.000€. The winning design will also be released as a very limited edition.

It’s very easy to make a design and who doesn’t want to win 1.000€ doing something cool. Mike and me already made our design so you better get creative as the contest is closing on October 18.

Here are our designs, don’t forget to post yours in the comments! (And feel free to guess which design is mine and which is Mike’s)

    I’d love to buy a custom design, but not if it’s just plain. The one I have has the cool red lettering on the earcups, so if they jazz that up a bunch, they might make another sale. Maybe Beyer should pick the top 3 or 4 and offer all of those as custom models for sale.

        Those guys at Beyer are pretty sharp – they could sniff a real winner in the C.O.P., it being a smooth sound that doesn’t offend, very comfy, modular, customizable, built-in bass boost etc. etc. I know it’s not super-fi, but it never sounds less than good no matter what else is available.

    For me the optional Soviet Red Star faceplate is the best looking COP. The current favourite ones in the competition are a bit too flower power.

    I was hyped then I found out that we can’t really make our own design. It’s just slapping together a bunch of pre-made items. Such a turn off.

      I’m not a big fan of the Kiwi, though it is daring, but DAMN that’s a really sweet colour combination!

      I think it’s a good design and definitely more creative than me and L’s. However I do like the Kiwi better. 🙂

    Hey Kiwi-Creator-Guy

    You are talking bullshit – most of your Votes – if not every Vote is fake.

    I am sorry for everyone who did real votes to push his or her favorit.
