Your EDM Audiophilia: V-MODA Is Making 3D Engraved Headphone Shields

V-MODA has been at the forefront of bringing headphones to consumers with laser-engraved shields for years now. Fully customizable and brandable, the M-100 Crossfades are a top choice among touring and performing DJs on both international and local levels. Now the headphone company of choice for many working DJs is reinventing itself with the introduction of custom 3D printed shields in a variety of materials. Ranging from $200-$40,000 you can choose to customize your cans with stainless steel, raw, plated, or even precious metals like gold and platinum.
