Velodyne vPulse Blue

Velodyne has made subwoofers for a long time -- and very good ones at that -- but has only more recently got into the headphones game with vPulse, a stylish $99 earphone that comes in black or electric blue and is equipped with an Apple-friendly inline remote/microphone for making cell-phone calls. As you may expect from a company that makes subwoofers, Velodyne's earphone delivers impressive bass, so you're in for a treat if that's your pleasure, especially at this relatively modest price point. But before I get into their sound, let's talk design.
