New SMS Audio™ Line of Headphones Now Available in South Africa!

Wireless and wired headphone styles

Gammatek SA PTY LTD, leading distributor of Branded Technology Accessories in Southern Africa, has, introduced the highly-anticipated Sync by 50™ wireless headphone and Street by 50™ wired headphone.

Famous rapper, 50 Cent, who loves high quality audio, is redefining the way music is heard with this new line of headphones which he launched with SMS Audio. He was born Curtis Jackson in 1975 and is living proof that hip-hop is as much a lifestyle as it is a type of music. He was a star in the underground mix-tape circuit for several years, but shot to fame when his first single “Wanksta” appeared on the soundtrack of the film 8 Mile. In 2003 he brought out a debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin’, and soon broke sales records. Today, 50 Cent is one of the worlds’ most famous hip-hop performers.

This new product line aims to blend advanced technology with modern design to provide the the best possible headphones for all who appreciate professional sound quality.

The unique Sync by 50 headphones integrate KleerTM wireless technology and is the only wireless headphone to incorporate full on- board controls offering an unparalleled, crystal-clear wireless range.

“These headphones combine cutting-edge technology with a fresh design style. Local fans can now enjoy the ultimate sound quality which is associated worldwidewith SMS Audio products,” comments Zev Cherniak of Gammatek.

The Sync by 50 wireless headphones feature 40mm drivers and are professionally tuned to produce unparalleled sound quality, providing the listener with non-compressed, CD-quality audio. Utilizing Kleer wireless technology to streamline and share the music experience, up to four listeners can simultaneously rock from a single source. With the included 3.5mm wireless transmitter, users have a 50-foot range. Unlike standard Bluetooth wirelessheadphones, Kleer technology gives Sync by 50 16-bit digital sound and boasts longer battery life, less interference and feedback – which means better overall sound quality.
The passive noise-canceling feature of Sync by 50 blocks out all outside distractions and keeps music unheard by others. An “S” indicator light denotes when the headset is synced, while built-in controls let listeners control volume levels, fast forward, rewind and boost the bass. Battery life is up to 17 hours and users can easily plug in the included cable to keep the music playing without interruption. Initially offered in two colors, Shadow Black and Ghost White, Sync by 50 headphones are made with soft, memory- foam cushions wrapped in leather for ultimate comfort. A hard-shell carrying case, adaptors, wireless transmitter, wired microphone cable and micro USB charging cable are also included.

The second offering in the line, Street by 50, is an exceptional wired-style headphone equipped with professionally-tuned 40mm drivers to deliver crisp clean sound, enhanced bass and passive noise-canceling capabilities. Just as 50 commands mass-market appeal through his fan-base and other entrepreneurial endeavors, Street by 50 commands attention from all who experience the audio superiority they offer.

In the same high-end styling as Sync by 50, Street by 50 is available in two color variations; Shadow Black and Phantom Blue, and includes a removable cable with microphone, adaptors and carrying case. Similar to other products in the line, Street by 50 headphones are made with durable, ultra-flexible polymer, making them a built-tough audio solution for whatever life throws at you.
