GIVEAWAY: 3 Pairs of Thinksound Wood Headphones

GIVEAWAY: 3 Pairs of Thinksound Wood Headphones

To us, green is the color of the money we get to keep in our wallet or an herbal “supplement,” not some environmental notion created by lobbyists to dissuade us from bombing around in a 60s era fastback. But we’re also more than happy to entertain the idea of not destroying our planet with products we need anyway – like headphones. Thinksound is the ultimate realization of the belief that responsible, eco-friendly manufacturing didn’t have to mean crappy design aesthetic and shitty sound. Each pair of their earphones combines industry standard aspects (every from at least 8mm drivers to high end acoustics to passive noise isolation to ear hooks) with something unexpected (wood) to create a product you’d buy even if it wasn’t green. We’re going to brighten the horizon even more by keeping the green in your wallet and giving you green headphones.

GIVEAWAY:

We have three pairs of excellent Thinksound headphones to give away: one pair of TS01 Sport in Silver cherry ($75 value), one pair of TS02+ in Black Chocolate ($80 value), and one pair of Rain in Silver Cherry ($100 value). Want to pop some wood into your ears? Head over to the Cool Material Facebook page and leave us a comment about the first thing you’re going to play when you hook them up to your media device of choice. It can be an artist, album or specific song. We’ll choose a winner 05/06. Good Luck!

    Oh yeah, this one’s for me – at last I can say, “I’ve got wood and it’s in my ears!” The first tunes I’d play would be The Beatles Rubber Soul Album – so fine ~:0)

    Fortunate Son – CCR
    Cosmic Love – Florence + the Machine
    Sunday Kind of Love – Etta James
    Rolling in the Deep – Adele
    People Say – Portugal the Man

    My music taste is a little random, but that’s not a bad thing.

  19. Posted by Charles Babb on April 29th, 2011 at 5:48 pm

    The first thing I’m going to listen to is John Coltrane’s Love Supreme or Miles Davis’ Sketches of Spain. The second thing I’m going to listen to is the Roots.

  20. Posted by Conor on April 29th, 2011 at 6:03 pm

    Wasn’t sure to leave the comment here or Facebook, so I did both… I’d throw on some Fleet Foxes, then follow it up with some swing

    def “Hip Hop” by Dead Prez!

  37. Posted by Samuel norbury on May 1st, 2011 at 5:47 am

    I’d do the song “there’s no such thing as a jaggy snake” by biffy clyro. Good headphones (good enough ones) give you all the different guitar layers that this song has to offer, making it far more awesome :D

  38. Posted by tobiasfunke on May 1st, 2011 at 1:27 pm

    Hmm… I would definitely have to crank out some of Fleet Foxes new album, Helplessness Blues (which is a truly great LP).

  66. Posted by Ed Lavalette on May 5th, 2011 at 10:53 am

    First spin… The new Beastie Boys album…

  67. Posted by Chris R. on May 5th, 2011 at 11:20 am

    Sinatra at the Sands Live. I’ll be back home after a 10 month journey through Asia and middle east, and throwing that album beatsany other treatment for jet lag. Doesn’t hurt that Count Basie on keys, and Quincy Jones conducting the full band.

  68. Posted by joseph on May 5th, 2011 at 11:21 am

    There’s only one band who could be played first and that’s Boston.

  69. Posted by Antonio Santoyo on May 5th, 2011 at 12:28 pm

    Hey guys. I’m awaiting the arrival of the new “Against Me!” CD titled “Total Clarity.” Any of these headphones would be an amazing compliment to listen to their new CD! Thanks for considering me.

  74. Posted by greg on May 5th, 2011 at 3:21 pm

    “Let’s just kiss and say goodbye”, quite possibly the best baritone ever, and will make the bass kick on those headphones.

  75. Posted by Leah on May 5th, 2011 at 3:40 pm
