Acoustic Research (a division of Audiovox) has recently updated their website to include the AWD210 headphone that Alive Matters mentioned last month. Having listened to these bad-boys not long ago, I can say that the audio quality is actually pretty amazing. Personally, I’d prefer a pair that had a USB transmitter since all my music is on my computer. But for most people, particulary those who know and trust AR, the analog in audio sender will be more appealing.
Alive Matters has also identified a few sites who are taking advanced orders for the AWD210. They are a bit random, but likely tied to a wholesaler that Audiovox works with.
Ambient Weather @ $117.49
Trio Computers @ $117.99

This Gizmodo post shows some of the latest products coming from the Audiovox group of companies.
For those who may not know (I didn’t until I checked their website), Audiovox maintains the following brands: Audiovox, Jensen, Advent, Acoustic Research, Phase Linear, and most recently, the accessory business from RCA, which they acquired from Thomson.

Alive Matters is particularly interested in how the market reacts to the AWD210 which will be branded Acoustic Research. Can it deliver a better experience than the old 900 MHz stuff they offered?
Stay tuned…
