 Hey everybody, it's Chris Sweltz of The Verge here at CES 2016 and tonight we're taking a look at these very fancy high-end headphones for the iPhone. They're made by Audiz, a really high-end headphone maker. These are brand new, these are called the Sign. They cost $500 and you can buy them with a custom lightning port, lightning cable that is for your iPhone, and that includes a built-in amplifier and custom audio processing. The iPhone will have no problem driving these because it's all self-contained and they get really loud, really powerful, they've got a great soundscape. So they sounded pretty nice in my tests, it is kind of loud in here so it's hard to get a really good feel for how they sound but hopefully we'll have more time with them soon. So these are brand new and then there's also the EL8 Titanium series and those are even more expensive, $800, but you can actually buy those at the Apple Store right now. These ones here will go on sale later this month so if Apple gets rid of the headphone jack like it's rumored to do for the iPhone 7, this is going to be a pretty common thing we think. It's going to be wireless headphones, Bluetooth, and then also lightning cable headphones could become the norm. Get ready to say goodbye to the headphone jack. If you're after high-end, audiophile-grade headphones then these are the ones for you. For more at CES 2016, keep it locked at youtube.com slash the verge.
