Taking a trip on a Private Jet? Don't forget your headphones!

Posted by Eric Wildt on Sep 24, 2012 8:48:00 AM

TAP 1 1500x1500Headphones are a must-have audio accessory, especially when you want to comfortably enjoy music on your jet aircraft charter. The latest in headphone technologies give you sweet-sounding options that even the most sensitive ears will enjoy. Ranging from over-ear models to earbuds, the best premium headphones offer versatility and comfort.

Silverado from California Headphones

Inspired by the aviation headsets worn during World War II, the retro-style Silverado headphones are designed to help you get the most out of California’s Bakersfield country sound, OC surf- rock and San Francisco’s alternative music scenes. This pair of headphones covers your ears completely and is made from die-cast metal and leather. With a frequency response of 20-20,000 Hz and 40mm titanium drivers, Silverado is designed to specifically pick up on vocals, guitars and other acoustics for a sound that’s akin to a live concert. The 280-degree articulating hinges and contrast-stitched headbands provide supreme comfort over your head and ears. The Silverado’s collapsible tri-fold design makes them ideal for travel on your private plane, and the duo-jack allows a friend to plug-in. 

STRIVA TAP from Koss

As the world’s first true in-ear Wi-Fi headphone, the STRIVA TAP earbuds are perfect for those who hate messing with cords. The STRIVA TAP’s built-in receivers allow you to listen to music in three different ways: 1) Listen to streaming music straight from an Internet station wherever there’s a Wi-Fi connection (simply tap on an earbud to change the Internet station), 2) Plug the CAP wireless transmitter into your music player to transmit music directly to the earbuds and 3) Use the STRIVA TAP like traditional earbuds by plugging them into your music player with the included audio cable. Get your hands on the STRIVA TAP as fast as you can because these Koss earbuds are in high demand by elite music listeners.

SYNC by 50 from SMS Audio

SMS Audio delivers first-class audio accessories for those who value technology, function, style and the highest caliber of sound. The SYNC by 50 is a wireless headphone from the SMS Audio line. It gives you lossless audio from up to 50 feet away, and three other friends can sync to the same audio transmitter and device. This means that you and three other private charter jet passnegers can all enjoy the same audio together. Multiple plug adapters are also available for when you’re cruising in your private jet. SMS Audio is a great option for elite philanthropists because for every headset sold,  the company donates 250 meals to people in need through its partnership with Feeding America—music and helping others never sounded so good.

CXC 700 Earbuds from Sennheiser

Rated as one of Travel + Leisure’s “Best New Travel Gadgets” in 2011, the CXC 700 are the world’s first noise-cancelling earbuds. Unlike noise-cancelling headphones that can take up a lot of space, a pair of CXC 700 is as small as traditional earbuds. The earbuds feature digital Active Noise cancellation, which reduces unwanted ambient noise. The three noise cancellation modes are based on different acoustic environments. Choose Mode 1 for trains, busses and cars; Mode 2 for flights on your private charter jet or Mode 3 for loud surroundings and crowded environments. The CXC 700 earbuds are optimized for portable media players and in-flight entertainment systems.
