Meters Music, an Ashdown Engineering brand, has taken the iconic analog VU meter and embedded one in each of the earpieces of its $350 OV-1-B Connect Bluetooth headphones. Visually, these noise-cancelling headphones are a sight to behold, with an industrial design you won’t find anywhere else.

Big and bold VU meters!
VU meters (the acronym stands for volume unit) are a physical representation of an audio signal level; as such, they play an important role in professional sound capture and playback. As used here, they simply lend a retro design flair; after all, you can’t see the levels while you’re wearing the headphones unless you’re looking in a mirror. Unfortunately, the OV-1-B Connect’s subpar audio performance fails to live up to that exciting industrial design.
