Sensgard is back with the ZEM headphones that use a simple amplifier for purportedly reproducing purer sound and cancel background noise using a proprietary technique from acoustic researcher Dr. Jozef Zwislocki.

The Sensgard ZEM noise-canceling headphones provide a frequency response of between 20Hz and 20,000Hz and a sensitivity of 110.5dB at 1,500Hz. You can buy the new Sensgard ZEM headphones for only $90. [ipodnn]
