DNP 50 c headphones

It's been a busy month for SMS Audio and Mr. Jackson. After launching new Street by 50 headphones and wireless speakers, they're now introducing the first pair of SYNC by 50 cans that connect over Bluetooth 4.0 and have aptX support. The latest wireless headphones to come out of 50 Cent's audio labs have an on-ear, foldable design and 40mm custom drivers. Play / pause, next track and volume controls are built into an earpiece, while a microphone comes with the detachable cable. SMS Audio claims you can listen to Get Rich or Die Tryin' for up to 12 hours on the hardware before you need to juice them up via the microUSB port. Those who'd like to learn more don't have to find 50 in the club -- head past the break for the press release or visit the source, where the gear is available for $230 per pair.

SMS Audio, the brainchild of Curtis "50 cent" Jackson, may be known for its pricey headphones, but the company is broadening its horizons with its first portable speaker, which you can now purchase for the not-so-humble price of $200. The SYNC by 50 wireless speaker boasts Bluetooth functionality, NFC capability and omni-directional sound due to its rounded design. Additionally, the SYNC comes equipped with 50mm tuned drivers, a 3.5mm headphone jack and five EQ settings to fiddle with. If you've always had your heart set on a Fiddy-branded speaker, you can find it in "shadow black" (as opposed to plain ol' black) on SMS Audio's website, linked below. For more info, check out the full press release after the break.
