with no attached wires, the lightweight and minimal shape of the earphones give users a custom fit available in two styles of earphone: sealed or leaking. sealed provides passive voice cancellation while leaking permits ambient noise. using bluetooth 4.1, the sound ranges between 8Hz to 29kHz, providing a wide range and deep bass without compromising on treble. pugz is currently on kickstarter and hopes to ship in november 2015.
