New York, NY, November 11, 2015 (Newswire.com) - ​AEGIS Acoustics today announced that it has been named a CES 2016 Innovation Awards Honoree for its AEGIS Pro Headphones. Products entered in this prestigious program are judged by a preeminent panel of independent industrial designers, independent engineers and members of the trade media to honor outstanding design and engineering in cutting edge consumer electronics products across 27 product categories.

The AEGIS Pro is the world’s first and only wireless headphones with volume limiting, active noise cancellation and digital decibel equalizer. It also has two precisely-tuned and strategically positioned speakers on each ear cup, ensuring studio-quality sound. Launched recently on Kickstarter, it exceeded its fundraising goal by 415% and was seen on more than 50 news articles on media outlets from over 10 countries.

“We are greatly humbled to be an honoree of the CES 2016 Innovation Awards and are profoundly appreciative of being recognized as a startup,” says Rayman Cheng, Co-Founder of AEGIS Acoustics. “We are even more grateful for the opportunity to build a pair of studio quality headphones that has the potential to change the world by preventing millions of cases of audio induced hearing loss.”  

The prestigious CES Innovation Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA)™, the producer of CES 2016, the global gathering place for all who thrive on the business of consumer technologies, and have been recognizing achievements in product design and engineering since 1976.

The AEGIS Pro will be displayed at a private event held at Vegas Luxury Palms Place Penthouse, during January 6-8, 2016, in Las Vegas, Nevada. There will also be 10 samples available for press reviews. To receive an invitation or request for a sample, please send an email to [email protected].
