Introduction
Audio quality is something that many people aren't concerned with. In the days of digital music distribution and low fidelity mp3 audio, convenience reigns supreme over all else. This is the cause behind the rise in popularity of those nasty $4 earbuds that you frequently see in brick-and-mortar stores. But what about those who hold audio quality to a similar importance to convenience? Lift-Audio recently released the Icon Series premium earbuds to satisfy that market, and today ASE Labs has them up to see how well they perform.
About Lift-Audio
Packaging
The Icon Series arrived packaged in a plain brown box sealed with a strip roughly analogous to a shipping label, with the Lift-Audio logo placed front and center. The box specifically mentions how easy it is to open, and a closer examination of the label reveals a perforated crease etched in right where the corner of the box is.
The inside of the box is pretty straightforward. There is the carrying case for the earbuds, and a cardboard insert to keep the case in place.
Some rather bland packaging, but then again flashier packaging isn't really necessary for online-only goods. We also commend the effort made to make opening the box as easy as possible.
