Share-centric DuoBuds headphones for kids
« Back to Article
You can connect multiple DuoBuds together, though you might see a slight loss in performance after connecting three or four in a row
DuoBuds are a simple concept, but one that a lot of children could enjoy
DuoBuds are ear buds with a built-in 3.5mm port for attaching additional headphones, so two or more children can listen to music or watch a video on the same device
With kids in mind, the cable is wrapped in fabric for better durability and to prevent tangles, and the extra port has an attached cap to keep out dust and pocket lint
The two ear buds are designed to snap together, so they can be worn around the neck when not in use
Currently DuoBuds are priced at AUD$39.95 and will ship internationally, but the designer has stated the pricing may be lower for a forthcoming U.S. release
You could get the same function from a cheap splitter cable, but the DuoBuds are aimed at children, who are much more likely to lose an extra cable or forget it at home
