Shure Aonic Free
Award-winning artist Jacob Collier and Shure have joined forces to launch the all-new Aonic Free True Wireless Sound Isolating Earphones in Crimson Chrome Red and Graphite Gray. Shure, a leading global audio electronics company with nearly 100 years of history-shaping audio, has been a go-to brand for Jacob since he received an SM58 vocal microphone for his 11th birthday. During live performances and in the studio, Jacob trusts Shure gear, including microphones, in-ear monitors, and digital wireless systems. This next evolution of Shure and Jacob's collaboration brings technology from the studio to the street, providing the same high-quality Shure audio for consumers that so many artists and creators, like Jacob, rely on to record and perform. Announced earlier this month in Graphite Gray, Aonic Free have earned editorial praise from prominent consumer technology and audio reviewers. And with the holidays around the corner, a great-sounding pair of sound-isolating earphones are at the top of many wish lists this year. The eye-catching Crimson Chrome Red and classic Graphite Gray Aonic Free fuses style with function.
The partnership with Jacob brings to life our long-standing heritage of supporting musicians who have trusted Shure gear on stage, in the studio, and on the go. For decades, Shure microphones have been used by the world's most legendary musicians, including Elvis, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and Aretha Franklin - to today's top artists like Jennifer Lopez and Luke Bryan. Now, we are proud to highlight how Jacob relies on Shure for all of his audio needs, whether he is in the studio or drawing inspiration on the go. "I've grown up surrounded by music, and it's just magic for me. I'm fascinated by the inspiration the world offers. With Shure Aonic Free earphones, I can bring the same legendary sound I trust when I create music with me in my pocket. Frankly, the Aonic Free are the perfect option for anyone who wants studio-quality audio, anywhere." - shared Jacob. "Jacob's close relationship with Shure and his discerning ear for the highest-quality audio made it a natural decision for us to work with him on this campaign. This collaboration is about making it possible for everyone to bring great, studio-quality sound with them to the places where they find inspiration. With the holidays quickly approaching, we're excited to offer the world-class listening experience of Aonic Free." - said Brooke Giddens, Head of Global Artists Marketing at Shure.
