LAS VEGAS, Jan. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Monster, the global leader in the development and manufacturing of high-performance headphones, connectivity solutions and A/V accessories, is proud to announce the debut of Diamond Tears -Edge(TM) High Definition MusicHeadphones (SRP: $279.95), the first in a planned family of trendsetting products to be created in alliance with J.Y. Park, founder of JYP Entertainment (JYPE). The new Diamond Tears - Edge headphones by Monster will be available beginning the first quarter of 2012, with a new in-ear version scheduled to be available in the latter half of 2012.

The creation of Diamond Tears -Edge(TM)Headphones was based on and inspired by J.Y. Park's musical talent. With 48 #1 hits in eight different countries, Park is not only Asia's most prominent producer, composer and artist, he has become the only Asian producer to successfully crossover into the U.S. market. Producer of Rain, Wonder Girls, 2PM, 2AM, and miss A, he is also the first Asian producer to work with top U.S. artists such as Will Smith and Mase.

With a stunning cosmetic design that parallels J.Y. Park's approach to the creation of music, the new headphone is "edgy like diamonds, smooth like tears" -- edgy to stimulate you and smooth so you never tire of it and will always enjoy it. "Diamond Tears-Edge" headphones give style-conscious consumers a brand new way to enjoy all their favorite music with superior sound and performance. They bring together Monster's world renowned audio engineering, instrumental in the creation of the breakthrough Beats(TM) by Dr. Dre,(TM) headphone line, with J.Y. Park's musical vision and expertise for a truly unique and powerful personal listening solution.

Major Media Product Visibility for Diamond Tears - Edge
The Wonder Girls and J.Y. Park are helping launch "Diamond Tears-Edge" headphones with a variety of high-profile events and product visibility placements planned for 2012. Notably, the Wonder Girls will star in an original TV movie titled "The Wonder Girls" in February on Teen Nick, a TV channel seen by more than 70 million households in the U.S. market. Created as a Samsung/TeenNick collaboration, the movie will include a Wonder Girls music video "The DJ is Mine," shot using Samsung's new 3D technology, and Monster's Diamond Tears-Edge headphones make a special appearance in both the movie and music video. The Wonder Girls TV movie trailer is currently being shown on Teen-Nick. This is one of multiple major product placements for Diamond Tears On-Ear headphones for the first half of 2012. Others include an appearance in the Korean/Asia Pacific TV series "Dream High 2," in which the headphones are an integral part of the storyline, as well as in the upcoming film "5 Million Dollar Man," starring J.Y.
