Blue Introduces Lola: Headphones Designed to Reveal New Detail in Your Favorite Music

I have a love/hate relationship with headphones. I’ve always loved having them, but it’s been years since I’ve worn them.  Why?  Because they’re uncomfortable.

I’m a huge music lover, and I’ve always enjoyed having some kind of headphones that provide a great sound and block out background noise.  Unfortunately, if you’ve ever worn real, over-the-ear headphones, you’ll already know that there are several issues that usually get in the way of comfort.  Sometimes the foam ear pads don’t fit over your ears, or don’t stay in place well and shift if you’re moving around while wearing them.  Sometimes the top bar that wraps over your head is too much to deal with (I have one pair of earphones that are so heavy on the bottom, the top bar ends up laying hard against my head and hurting me).  Sometimes the headphones are so tight they give you a headache.  And sometimes their real focus is on “fashion,” with both comfort and sound quality taking low priority.

Anyway, you see what I mean. It’s difficult to find good headphones that have the sound quality I’m looking for and also fit well and are consistently comfortable.  But look no further:  I’ve found them. Lola is here to save the day!

Each pair of Lola headphones comes with a soft case with cable storage pocket, 1.2-meter audio cable with Apple iPhone/iPad controls and microphone, 3 meter audio cable, & a 3.5mm to 1/4” adapter.

Lola is a new headphone by Blue, a company that has been creating exceptional audio gear for elite artists for over 20 years.

Lola headphones are unlike anything else you’ll see, because they’re engineered and designed from the inspiration of Formula One racecar suspensions.  Talk about unique! Most headphones use a spring-loaded headband, but not Lola.  Blue has invented a multi-jointed headband that adapts to any head shape, providing literally hours of comfortable use. Also, the height adjustment feature is great.  Unlike other headphones that require you to pull the earcups up or down to adjust height, Lola features adjustable pivoting arms that let the earcups “float” into place and move with you.  The fit is truly customizable, and with a foam cushion at the top of the headband, it’s truly comfortable, too.

As for sound, wow.  Thanks to Lola’s unique design, the earcups fit perfectly around your ears to seal in the sound and keep out the background noise. If you’re interested in the tech specs, these headphones feature large 50mm premium drivers and large, airtight, 100% sealed enclosures that maximize the volume of air around the drivers.  Put plainly, that makes for a strong platform to create a good sound that’s warm, full-range, and never harsh.

Thanks to Lola, I am officially spoiled.  Like I said, I hadn’t worn over-the-ear headphones in years and had almost given up hope of ever finding some that were just right.  Thank goodness I tried these!  It took me a few tries to get the fit just right, but once I did, I was totally hooked and didn’t want to take them off.  They really do seal out sounds from the “outside” world, and the sound they provide is amazing.  All of my favorite music sounds even better, and I can wear them for hours while I’m working during the day with no discomfort at all.  They actually work so well, I can’t wear them when I’m alone with the kids.  They seal out sounds so well, my kids could set off dynamite and I wouldn’t know until I heard sirens.  But when my husband is home to watch and entertain the kids, and I’m having some me-time with a good red wine, fancy cheese, and some music…all bets are off and my Lola headphones are on.

I’ll issue one disclaimer: the cord included features controls and a microphone for iPads and iPhones. I’m an Android user, so those buttons don’t do anything for me.  The pause button works with my Android phone, but the others don’t.  Otherwise, I have no complaints whatsoever.
