GCL states At 2014 International CES, Velodyne Unveils vFit Fitness Headphones — The Ideal Workout Partner

Las Vegas, Nev., January 07, 2014 – Ask any fitness trainer: Getting back into shape after the holidays is a lot easier when you have a stylish workout partner to motivate you.

If your New Year’s resolution involves your fitness regimen, there’s no better exercise partner to put you through your paces than the vFit® in-ear fitness headphones from audio pioneer Velodyne (http://www.velodyne.com). The product makes its debut at 2014 International CES, under way from Jan. 7 through Jan. 10.

Initially available in pink or blue, stylish Velodyne vFit headphones fit snugly yet comfortably in any ear thanks to an optional attachable hook that molds to the unique shape of the outer ear. Inside the ear, three sizes of ear tips ensure a custom fit. vFit’s style and comfort are further matched by Velodyne’s superior audio technology and legendary high-performance, low-distortion bass.

„With vFit by Velodyne, there’s no more fussing with awkward-fitting ear buds that pop out in the middle of your workout,“ said Marta Hall, president of Velodyne. „Just as important, you’ll never miss a single pulsating beat with vFit. They look as good as they sound – and with regular use, vFit owners are apt to look good as well.“

From a technical standpoint, vFit headphones offer:

o    10mm drivers for high-performance, low-distortion bass o    20 Hz-20 kHz frequency response o    94 dB/1 kHz/1 mW sensitivity o    16 ohm impedence

vFit headphones are available at Amazon.com, BestBuy.com and Velodyne.com. MSRP: $99.99.
