Here's a product that will work with the DynaDock V3.0 Universal Docking Station that Toshiba has just launched, as well as pretty much every consumer electronic device with a working 3.5 mm jack.

It's really not surprising that SMS Audio, LLC has revealed a new portable audio device. It is a brand that comes from Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson after all.

They are the sort of products that don't spare any expense. At all. As in, they cost more than some phones, computers, etc.

The exact price is $279.95, which corresponds to €211.87, according to exchange rates, although the EU price is more likely to be of €279.95 instead.

The main asset that SMS Audio focused on, in its press release, is the Active Noise Cancellation technology.

Understandable. The headset is, after all, called Street by 50 Over-Ear Active Noise Control (ANC) Wired headphones.

Their role is to eliminate background noise while on a plane, the office or other loud environments. Sure, it will make conversations a pain, but people aren't supposed to have their headphones on while talking face-to-face anyway.

"I have spent a long time searching for a great pair of headphones that not only deliver great sound quality, but that also are durable and comfortable enough during my extensive travels," said 50 Cent, CEO of SMS Audio.

"That's why we created the STREET by 50 Over-Ear ANC Wired headphones with active noise cancellation technology. Not only do they deliver the best in studio mastered sound, but they are also tough enough to withstand extensive traveling while providing a secure and comfortable fit for hours of listening enjoyment."

The new headset has 40 mm, professionally tuned drivers, soft leather memory foam ear cushions, an adjustable headband, a removable cable with 3 clock microphone, soft touch cleaning cloth, an airplane adapter, a hard shell carrying case, and a micro USB charging cable (the battery inside can last for 70 hours at a time).
