The headphones are great, very light and the sound quality is impressive.

Quick turnaround

Great apple product for a very competitive price. Ordering online was a breeze and I was able to collect within 2 days of placing my order.

Love them

Be careful with them as they can easily get lost and fall into random places as they're very small.

Experienced Jazz Player & Teacher

Nick Homes

Hi, my name is Nick Homes, musician, saxophonist, educator and musical mentor. Throughout 35 years of playing, and obsessive investigation I have focussed on building systems of learning for myself and students so they can improve and reach their goals with the highest probability.

 

My Youtube channel Jazzduets (250,00 subs) is where I  share my systems of learning and personal insights in to music.

 

"Mixing triad pairs is a different approach to improvisation like painting sound colours. No need to worry about voice leading from tone to tone. This approach can be thought of as a MACRO improvisational system where you will learn to combine shades and tints of sounds that add different feelings and emotions to your improvisations…"-Nick
