Phiaton MS 400 Moderna Headphones
By Mike Payne
Heaphones can be more than just a tool for personal, critical listening, they can also serve as a functional fashion accessory. The Phiaton MS 400 Moderna Headphones bring a new level of style to personal listening, adding a carbon-fiber enclosure and red leather cushioning. Phiaton claims that the carbon-fiber enclosure offers “accurate response and high quality audio”, but we’re certain this is little more than marketing speak. The carbon-fiber is for style, first and foremost, and won’t have any noticeable impact on performance. That’s not to say these things don’t provide some pretty sexy components and output ratings– but it is to say that buyers of these headphones are paying a premium for looks over performance.
