Ferrari, Logic 3 team on headphones, may be the closest we get to Enzo sound in our ears

Ferrari likes to brand just about everything. That said, the two new lines of in-ear and over-ear headphones it’s introducing with Logic3’s help seem like more natural fits for the supercar brand than for other gadgets. The speed-loving elite will inevitably swing towards the Cavallino series’ premium materials and universal microphone remote. Us plebeians have to consider the more plastic-laden Scuderia range, which still manages to pack in some Formula 1 styling along with the remote control. Prices are high at $150 to $315 for the Scuderias, or $201 to $352 for high rollers eying the Cavallinos — but it’s hard to dispute that either series is much more likely to turn up at our houses than a hybrid Enzo.

The Capital over-ears’ bolstered fiberglass shell is designed to be rain- and snow-resistant, not to mention take the casual knocks that might beat up other headphone pairs. The foldable set likewise gives us every excuse to keep it on our heads, both through a light and reputedly comfortable brace as well as an in-line mic and remote to take that iPhone call through the Capital’s 40mm drivers. At $125, the pair isn’t the lowest-cost entry into the headphone world, but if it spares us from having to dive for cover when the weather turns foul, it could well be a bargain. You can get a sense of AiAiAi’s impetus for yourself in a video after the break.
