Darth Vader Headphones Will Take You to the Dark Side

Without a doubt, Star Wars is one of the world's best-known and most popular franchises, and for this reason, just about every single product released onto the market and even remotely connected to this super-famous fictional universe is almost sure to enjoy a huge level of popularity, this also probably being the case with the headphones you'll read about as follows, presented by the guys over at Firebox.

Dubbed the Star Wars Darth Vader Headphones, these things are fairly interesting, but mostly if you happen to be a hardcore fan of the series or Sith lords, because, to be perfectly honest, in terms of audio, they won't really create a “disturbance in the force”.

And that's because the headphones sport a 40mm power drivers, capable of delivering a rather unimpressive 20 Hz ~ 20 kHz frequency range, as well as an impedance level of 32 ohms.

Additional features worth mentioning include the impedance (32 ohms), as well as the sensitivity (115 db at 1KHZ) and the maximum input power, of around 100mW.

The headphones from Firebox connect to an audio source via a rather standard 3.5-mm audio jack, connected to a 1.2-meter cable, and sport an adjustable headstrap (enabling a higher level of comfort when worn for longer periods of time, although we're pretty sure ol' Vader is not exactly the type of person who cares too much about comfort), while also measuring just around 14cm(W) x 15.5cm(H) x 7.5cm(D).

Pricing for the officially-licensed Star Wars Darth Vader Headphones has been set at around 35 pounds sterling (or 55 US dollars), which points out quite clearly that we're not talking about some high-end audio solutions here, but just about a device banking on the high level of dedication of all the true Star Wars fans out there (and there are plenty all over the world).
