New York watchmaker Jacob & Co has teamed up with Loewe, not the Spanish fashion brand owned by LVMH, but its German namesake, an electronics specialist, to offer two exclusive models of closed-back headphones. A whim that will set you back a mere $140,000!<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cutting-edge technology and precious stones.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As the luxury industry seeks to reconnect with exclusivity and craftsmanship, Loewe Technology GmbH and Jacob & Co<\/b> have taken up the challenge of turning headphones into an ultra-luxury item<\/b>. Entitled “Loewe x Jacob & Co. Two Icons. One Vision,”<\/strong> this partnership is based on a synergy of expertise: electronics for the former, watchmaking and jewelry for the latter.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Designed as an exceptional product<\/b>, only ten pairs of these headphones will be produced<\/b>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Two areas of expertise, two models<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the height of summer, the German brand Loewe officially launched its limited edition headphones aboard its own eponymous yacht in Monaco Bay. The 55-meter Tankoa superyacht welcomed a host of celebrities for the occasion, including soccer star and captain of the French national team, Kylian Mbapp\u00e9.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This Loewe x Jacob & Co capsule collection was developed to combine the two brands’ distinctive expertise<\/b> and offer two models of headphones that are as aesthetic as they are innovative.<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Evoking purity and precision, the first model<\/b>, named Ice Diamond<\/b>, features handcrafted white gold \u201crings\u201d set with 456 dazzling diamonds.<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Playing on the contrasts of light and dark<\/b> with the aforementioned model, the more daring Noir Rainbow<\/b> features a 15.97-carat rose gold ring adorned with sparkling multicolored sapphires<\/b>, forming a luminous halo.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

These rings<\/b> are not only aesthetic<\/b>: they also serve the functional role of a control wheel…<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In terms of technical prowess<\/b>, both models are equipped with Loewe’s most advanced audio technology. In addition to high-resolution sound<\/b>, each headset features adaptive active noise reduction<\/b> that adjusts in real time.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The headphones also feature artificial intelligence<\/b> to provide voice assistance and real-time translation.<\/b> Finally, made from high-end materials such as anodized aluminum and genuine leather, the Loewe x Jacob & Co headphones<\/b> offer up to 65 hours of battery life.<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With only five of each of the two headphone models available, the capsule collection is particularly exclusive<\/b>, targeting primarily the wealthiest collectors. The Noir Diamond finish costs \u20ac99,000 ($116,000) and the Ice Diamond finish costs \u20ac119,000 ($139,000).<\/b><\/p>\n

Although the luxury audio segment<\/strong> is still in its infancy, Jacob & Co is not the first to attempt such a venture: Miu Miu<\/strong> with Marshall (\u20ac850), Louis Vuitton<\/strong> with its Horizon headphones (\u20ac1,450) and Celine<\/strong> in collaboration with Master & Dynamic (\u20ac850) have also released their own luxury headphones. However, until now, no one had attempted to surpass Chanel<\/strong>‘s Premiere Sound necklace, priced at \u20ac14,800.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This high-end headphone market<\/b> is expected to grow from $12.10 billion in 2024 to $25.42 billion in 2033, representing a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 8.6%. It should be noted, however, that the high-end audio market experienced a second consecutive year of decline in 2024, with a 4.7% drop in global volume, according to the latest market report from Futuresource Consulting.<\/p>\n
