Monster Announces Headphones for Shuffle VoiceOver

Monster has announced that it is working on a new set of headphones that will be compatible with the new iPod shuffle VoiceOver feature. VoiceOver allows the shuffle user to control music playback using their voice.

Monster reports that its Beats by Dr. Dre headphones will support the new shuffle feature and other models of its headphones will add support as well. The headphones will use an on-core control to access the iPod playlist.

Monster says that it will also soon announce an adapter that adds VoiceOver support to any set of headphones. “Monster's iPod products are all about helping users maximize their musical experiences,” noted Kevin Lee, Little Monster and vice president of Marketing Strategy and Business Development. “We created our entire headphone line because we truly believe that sound matters to the enjoyment of music. We’re thrilled to be able to complement the new iPod shuffle with easy-to-use control features built into our headphones so customers can enjoy the high-quality Monster audio experience they’ve come to expect.”
