V-MODA’s latest addition to its luxury line of headphones, the Vibe II with Microphone, will be launched this Friday exclusively at the Apple Store, Apple.com and ship.v-moda.com.

The new noise-isolating headphones/headset is made with stainless steel alloy and is designed for all Apple iPhone and iPod models.

Like everything else produced by V-MODA, style and presentation are just as important as the sound itself.   The earbuds have what the company calls a contrasting jewel accent in the center, along with a fabric cable, which includes the hands-free microphone and call/music controls.

Accessories included with the earbuds are four sizes of black and clear medical-grade silicone fittings for proper fitting in your ear and detachable sport earhooks, which include a unique feature called Active Flex. This allows the headphones to adjust to the ear, regardless of the earhooks’ position. A designer carrying pouch is included and comes in handy to carry this all together.

Val Kolton, founder and CEO of VMODA, shared his excitement at introducing the Vibe II in a recent press release: “We believe the headphone is the first to bring together the finest elements of design, music, fashion and world-renowned audio – all of which epitomize the V-MODA brand.”

After using the headphones, I can vouch that this has all been achieved.
