Hasta La Gadget!

Etymotic unveiled a number of new headsets and headphones this week, along with a new program where buyers can have the in-ear tips for their Etymotic headphones custom molded and fitted to their ears. The new Etymotic MC3 and M5 in-ear earphones both bring superior audio quality to a colorful set of earbuds. The MC3 comes with an in-line control pod and noise-isolating microphone that allows you to adjust the volume when you’re listening to music or take phone calls. Both models are polished aluminum and come in black, red, blue, and green. The MC3 and its included headset retails for $99, and the M5 earphones retail for $79.

Etymotic also unveiled the $179 hf3 in-ear headset, which is a step up from the MC-series. It also comes in three colors and will work with any device with a 3.5-mm audio jack, but is designed for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. The h3 also features a noise-isolating microphone and three-button control pod that’s in-line with the audio cable.

If you prefer wireless headsets, the new etyBLU2 Bluetooth headset will run you $129, and features a noise-isolating boom microphone strip that attaches to the headset, unlike other so-called “cheekbone” Bluetooth headsets. It also uses Etymotic’s interchangeable fitted eartips for maximum comfort and noise isolation for call clarity.

In addition to the new line of earphones and headsets, Etymotic also announced a new program for all of its products where buyers can sign up for a voucher to see an audiologist to be fitted for custom eartips that match their ears for free. Once your custom fitting is complete, the audiologist will send your ear impressions to a lab where your impressions will become custom-molded, Etymotic-compatible eartips. Each set of custom eartips will be $100 and carry a 1-year warranty. The program begins on July 1, and buyers of any qualifying Etymotic product can participate.
