Last month, KonoAudio took another big step as a company and moved into an amazing new facility located in central Delray Beach, Florida. With the continued growth in the recent years, our old office had gone from feeling like a huge cave, to a sardine can. We're not only excited about the extra leg room, but about the opportunity to continue to grow so we can serve you better.
If you haven’t been to Delray Beach before, it’s a very chill city with lots of fun things to do. We’re about 8 minutes away from beautiful blue water beaches and 5 minutes away from downtown, where you can find a wide range of restaurants, coffee shops, and boutique retailers. The right location helps inspire design and innovation, and we’re looking forward to showing you what we have cooking in the coming months.
Check out the photos of the new KonoAudio office here in sunny South Florida, which we've also posted on Facebook.com/KonoAudio. Cheers!

KonoAudio, was pleased to announce last week that they have hit another milestone in the development of their kid safe headphone and earbud line. KonoAudio now has over 10 worldwide audiology distributors giving access to these important products to thousands of audiologists and ear nose throat specialists. Hearing conservation is a critical concern for parents worldwide and KonoAudio is pleased to have established a global network of the finest audiology distributors.
Protect your children's ears with Kidzsafe earbuds and headphones which help prevent noise induced hearing loss with Kid safe safe volume technology. When exposed to harmful impulse noise or loud sounds over a prolonged period, sensitive structures in our inner ear can be damaged causing Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL). Exposure to harmful sounds causes damage to the hair cells as well as the auditory, or hearing, nerve. Impulse sound can result in immediate hearing loss that may be permanent.
Compatible with all iPod, Zune and other MP3 devices, as well as portable CD and DVD players, Kidzsafe headphones give the same high quality frequency and response found in full size headphones. Each Kidzsafe product has been tested and approved by our KonoAudio experts and strongly endorsed by audiologists.
Helps prevent hearing loss - No parental controls needed - Audiologists recommend <85 decibels - Automatically limits volume - Technology built directly into earbud casing - Limit can not be overridden - Heavy duty no tangle cord - Recommended for kids under 9.

KonoAudio is proud to announce the launch of
its full line of fashion forward electronic accessories and earbuds. The line is comprised of three collections
that will appeal to the most fashion conscious consumers who value style sense
as much as dollars and cents. KonoAudio went back to its roots in the jewelry business, taking inspiration for these
collections from the hottest trends in jewelry.
The fashionable collections are Carbon12, Murano and Elegante,
which all have spectacular sound quality powered by KonoAudio with crystal
clear mids and highs and dynamic bass.
Just as in
chemistry, where Carbon12 is the benchmark whereby all other atomic
masses are measured, the KonoAudio™ Carbon12 collection is the
benchmark by which all other premium sound fashion earbuds will be
measured. Carbon12 earbuds
feature electroplated black ear casings that give a brilliant shine, fabric no-tangle
cords and matching genuine carbon fiber accents
The KonoAudio Murano collection is the most unique and beautiful earbud on the market. Murano earbuds feature ear
casings that are beautiful in design and color, each being meticulously
electroplated to give a brilliant finish. These products are made with fabric no-tangle
cords and accented with unique Murano glass inspired jewels; one of the most
popular elements used in jewelry and home fashions.
Just like its namesake, Elegante earbuds are elegant and sophisticated,
emulating fine jewelry. The KonoAudio Elegante collection features earbud casings electroplated in gold, silver and
pearl white accented with crystalline jewels. The beautiful matching cords
are made with our unique no-tangle technology.

Protect children’s ears with KidzSafe earbuds and headphones. KonoAudio is proud to announce the launch of its innovative line of kid‐friendly
earphone products. Help prevent noise
induced hearing loss with KidzSafe volume technology. KidzSafe earbuds and headphones are
compatible with any audio device and no matter how high the device volume is
turned up, the volume level will always remain below 85 decibels with our
proprietary built in volume control. Experts
agree that listening above the 85dB threshold is when hearing damage can begin.
An MP3 player turned up to the maximum
volume level can reach 120dB. Sounds
under 85dB are considered generally safe according to NIOSH (National Institute
of Safety and Health) and CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention). KidzSafe keeps the volume at a safe level at all times without any
software to download or parental controls to install. Just plug and play! This brand new earbud features rich sound
quality, a comfortable design with three sizes of silicon ear pads, thick gauge
no-tangle cord, a storage pouch and fun color choices which make it the perfect
companion for your child's portable game system, DVD player, iPod or MP3
player. KidzSafe products also meet
ASHA (American Speech-Language-Hearing Association) and OSHA (Occupational
Safety and Health Administration) approval guidelines for safe listening
volumes.
“Hearing loss due to noise exposure is the only type of hearing
loss we have any control over. As
a pediatric audiologist, I treat the effect of loud music on an alarming number
of younger patients. As a mother, I
understand that music is a part of every generation and today's youth has more
opportunities to directly expose their fragile ears to outputs that can cause
hearing loss. KidzSafe provides the perfect solution for everyone.
Kids get to listen to music with earbuds that fit their ears and parents
get to relax knowing they are protecting their child from damaging levels of
sound. I'm a tough customer when it comes to ears, but KidzSafe is safe
enough for my kids!"
