SOHO SOUND COMPANY has launched STUDIO 17 (RRP £17.99), its first over-ear headphone built specifically for schools.
Designed for everyday classroom use, STUDIO 17 combines a tough, virtually indestructible construction with comfort, practicality and SOHO’s unique Audio Link technology. Built for busy learning environments, it offers schools a durable and cost-effective headphone designed to cope with daily use across classrooms, music departments, and media suites.
Following the success of the original 70E01 EDPhones, which brought Audio Link to classrooms in a simple, affordable format, STUDIO 17 takes the same easy audio-sharing concept and puts it into a more comfortable over-ear design. Multiple headphones can be connected from a single audio source, making group listening simple without the need for separate splitters.

Built from tough polypropylene with a reinforced design, STUDIO 17 is made to withstand daily handling, accidental drops and the demands of busy schools. It also includes both 3.5mm and 6.3mm connectors as standard, helping teachers connect quickly to computers, tablets, keyboards, digital pianos and other classroom audio equipment.
Comfort has also been carefully considered, with soft foam ear cushions and a fully adjustable headband making STUDIO 17 suitable for longer listening sessions. Backed by a two-year warranty, it gives schools added confidence in a headphone designed for repeated classroom use.
