THE DECIBEL FAMILY INCLUDES THESE COLLECTIONS:


 Big Slick
Upping the sovereignty of your trademark swagger with a headphone from the Big Slick Collection is as sure a guarantee as you’ll get in life. Choose over-ear styles, including the battle-tested G.I. with three new color combinations or the DJ-style Ti in four new colors. Prefer buds? Choose from eight new colors in the Riot or four new colors in the Titan, which boasts precision-cut metal housings. If bright buds are for you, go Gold, Green or Yellow – all new colors in the FMJ. Or show you’ve arrived in style with the on-ear Icon2.

 Dream Team
The Dream Team Collection is laced with so much color that you can finally ditch that stinky old tie-dyed hippy shirt you wore to tour North America with your ex-favorite band. Wearing a Dream Team headset could encourage the formation of your own cheer squad. Go top-of-the-line with the over-ear SK Pro, get funky over the ears with the Skullcrusher, or go sleek contour with the Agent. Ear bud options include the Smokin Buds, Riot and FMJ. Finally, go all-new and all-comfort with the on-ear Icon Soft.

 Lurker
Timeless like raw denim with copper rivets, white tees, black leather and Chuck Taylors, a Lurker headphone demonstrates your devotion to quality, style, and—just maybe—punk rock. Three over-ear options are available – the all-new Hesh, the G.I. and the Agent. Bud choices are the Smokin Buds, Riot, Titan, and revolutionary designed Chops with a hanger that hugs the ear so your sideburns can move as fast as your hips in the mosh pit.

 Cat Fight
Roaming the street in a Cat Fight Collection headphone lets you bare some claw while maintaining that picture-perfect smile. Sporting a color base of pinks and purples, wear a Cat Fight style with confidence, either over the ear with the DJ-style Ti; on the ear with the Lowrider or Icon2; or roam with some stealth with bud styles including Smokin Buds, FMJ, Riot and the Chops.

 Vibe
Choose the Vibe Collection for its clean stripes and subtle palette of more earthy green and brown tones. You’ll give off a confident vibe. But if you want to keep them guessing, try putting on a pair of ski boots and a coon skin hat and stroll up the grocery store aisle carrying a box of powdered milk and a pumpkin while saying, ‘What up?’ Need huge sound? Pick up the Vibe Stack. The G.I. is another over-ear choice, or go on-ear with the Lowrider. The Holua bud is built with wooden components and delivers crystal clear sound.

 Audiophile
The return you’ll get—in terms of cred—on your investment in an Audiophile Collection headphone supersedes the modest price of admission into the elite circle of connoisseurs. A suave black and green color palette says you’re cool and sophisticated but know how to party when the clock strikes 5. Three over-ear choices are available—the DJ-style SK Pro and Ti, or the sleekly styled Agent. Choose the on-ear Icon Soft for comfort, whether it’s at the office or the club. Ear bud choices are the woody Holua, or the FMJ.
