Express Yourself, with Great Sounding Music and Great Style!

Monster is committed to developing audio products that complement peoples' lifestyles and reflect the way they enjoy music today, while faithfully reproducing all genres of music as the artists intended. That's why the company designed Inspiration(TM)from the ground up to bring the very best audio reproduction to consumers who not only want to bring their music with them wherever they go, but also show off a sense of style, self-expression and fun.

With their advanced noise canceling capabilities, Inspiration headphones are perfect for busy commuters and travelers, as well as for everyone who wants to enjoy a deeper emotional connection to their music, coupled with ahead-of-the-curve fashion. Designed for both men and women, they feature a unique angled plush earcup, in addition to their super comfortable, extra wide interchangeable headband.

Head Monster Noel Lee noted: "Everyone at Monster is passionate about better sounding music - music is what inspires us. So to create our Inspiration over-ear headphones, we started by making ultimate quality sound our number one priority. But we didn't stop there. By bringing together stunning, fashion-forward styling with true 'higher definition' audio performance, we are giving all serious music lovers an opportunity to think beyond their current listening choices and elevate both their listening experience and their self-expression. Just as some days you wear jeans and some days you might wear a tuxedo, these headphones with interchangeable bands let you choose whatever look or feel you want to express yourself, and feel 'inspired.' With Inspiration we can express ourselves exactly the way we want, wherever and whenever we want - and of course enjoy the kind of superior music listening experience only Monster headphones deliver."
