National Audio Show 2013

If you are in the market for a more discreet and stylish headphone, Harman Kardon’s new Soho might fit the bill. With its stitched leather and stainless steel, it’s clearly aiming for the quality-conscious listener. The Soho also folds flat and has an iOS compatible remote/mic. Equally important is that it’s available in black, brown or white. What it offers to the music lover is a pair of 30mm drivers in on-ear pads, so whether it will sound as sweet as it looks remains to be seen, but we do like the idea of brown leather cans. The price will be £150 when it lands in London’s Soho.
