A new pair of rugged handmade headphones which incorporate once fired bullet casings. Has been launched by Kickstarter this week with the aim of raising the required $10,000 needed to make the jump into production.
Watch the demonstration video below to learn more about the handmade durable headphones which include controls and microphone. Pledges are available from $55 with shipping expected to take place during July 2017.
Hello, my name is Randy May, creator of Double Tap Audio. Our company was successfully funded via a small kickstarter campaign for our Double Tap R1 headphones. Since then, we have had lots of requests to make a set of headphones with the same quality of our R1, but with an inline microphone and controls. Continuing with our high-quality build and sound, our new R1M’s have an inline microphone and controls for your iOS or Android devices.
We have worked for months on designing and prototyping an inline system that would hold up to our high standards of durability, along with keeping the headphones comfortable and reliable. We are very proud to introduce our newest headphones, the Double Tap R1M.
Keeping with the original idea of the R1, the R1M’s are made tough. Built from real brass bullet casings and custom made billet aluminum parts, our R1M’s have a solid premium feel without sacrificing durability. Our R1 and R1M’s share the same high-quality, multi-layer cord. This cord is made from a protective nylon sheath and flexible silicone wire. This allows the nylon sheath to take most of strain and stress while the silicone wire floats freely inside.
This combination of materials also allows our cord to out last and withstand more than most other cords on the market. The cord is also tangle-resistant, so no more dealing with a tangled mess every time you want to use your headphones. Also, every set comes with magnetic-backed earphones to allow for clean storage, or you can use this to hang the headphones around your neck when they’re not in use.
