TOKYO (The Thursday Times) — Sony ne 1979 mein pehle Walkman ke saath aane wale headphones dobara mutaarif kara diye hain, jin ka patla surmai headband aur naranji foam ear cushion barqarar rakhe gaye hain, magar purane plug ki jagah USB-C laga diya gaya hai taake yeh barah-e-raast jadeed phone ya laptop se jur saken.
Naya MDR-3R, MDR-3 ki taqreeban hubahu naql hai, jo Walkman TPS-L2 cassette player ke saath mutaarif hua tha aur jis ne chalte phirte moseeqi sunne ko rozmarra ki aadat banane mein madad di. Is mein wohi dhaati sliders wala adjust hone wala plastic band aur wohi halka, kaanon ke upar rakha jane wala design hai, jo aaj ke bhari aur gadde dar headsets se bilkul mukhtalif hai. Is ke saath naranji aur neele donon rangon ke ear cushion milte hain.
Sony ne kaha ke us ne “asal jaisi awaz paida karne ke liye MDR-3 wale hi 23mm driver units” istemal kiye hain. Company ne kaha: “MDR-3R ko jadeed istemal ke liye naye sire se design kiya gaya hai, jabke moseeqi ko azadi se duniya mein saath le jane ke us tajurbe ko barqarar rakha gaya hai jise asal MDR-3 ne maqbool banaya tha.”
Naya kya hai: asal model ke bar-aks MDR-3R mein in-line remote aur calls ke liye built-in microphone hai, taham is mein noise cancellation nahin. Kaanon ke upar rakhe jane ki wajah se is mein ird gird ki awazein kaafi had tak sunayi deti hain. Ibtidai jaizon mein is ki darmiyani aur oonchi awazon ko saaf aur sakht ko halka magar kuch kamzor bataya gaya hai, aur is ki qeemat taqreeban 60 dollar batayi gayi hai.
Yeh dobara ijra naujawan samaeen mein taar wale headphones, cassetton aur deegar physical formats mein barhti dilchaspi ke waqt samne aaya hai. Walkman ka naam ab bhi maujood hai, agarche aaj ke Walkman tape deck ke bajaye touchscreen wale Android media players hain.
