Cleer Next 2016-2017

Designers: BMW Group Designworks, Newbury Park, California, USA
Manufacturer: Cleer, LTD., San Diego, California, USA

The NEXT headphone is CLEER's first high-end, audiophile grade headphone. It is meant to provide decades of listening enjoyment without degradation beyond wear and tear. 

Inspired by mechanical timepieces and horology, the NEXT headset features precise and finely detailed articulations, plush leather and refined stitch work. Exactly like a fine watch, the NEXT headset does not become obsolete over time. 

The design philosophy applied was: Lightweight (material selection and cutting parts so as to minimize material use), Reduced (no decoration or non functional features or parts), Intuitive (No buttons...) and Crafted (exquisitely detailed). 

The CLEER NEXT design targets enthusiasts and audiophiles, therefore it exudes the qualities this demanding public is looking for. The visual presence of the product has been well received in the enthusiast circles.
