What would you do if you suddenly found a suitcase with 1 million dollars? Today, this is really a decent amount, which can be enough for a penthouse, a dozen good apartments, or several dozen expensive and high-quality cars. In general, 1 million dollars is the annual budget of many cities. In general, what would you buy for such a huge amount? Would you buy headphones for that amount?
The most expensive Beats By Dre headphones from Graff Diamonds
Yes, yes, you didn't think so! We are talking about ordinary, but at the same time not quite ordinary, headphones. In the photo - the most expensive headphones for $ 1 million (57.5 million rubles). It is worth noting that this accessory exists only in one copy. For the first time, the world saw the most expensive headphones in February 2012 at a concert by LMFAO with Madonna. The soloist of LMFAO Sky Blu performed with them.
I wonder what it's like to perform at a concert, jump and dance, knowing that you have the most expensive headphones in the world hanging around your neck? An interesting point is that at this concert a joint song by Madonna, Sky Blue and Redfoo was presented, but this song was never remembered by anyone. Just like the concert itself, despite the huge amount of special effects and advertising hype. Pop stars were overshadowed by just one accessory. It was these headphones that later became the subject of many discussions.
Why exactly $1 million?
The "neighbour" in price category for these most expensive headphones is the Sennheiser Orpheus model, which, in turn, costs $ 30,000 (1.7 million rubles). Therefore, the question arises - why such a colossal difference in price? In fact, everything is simple - the side panels of the headphones are encrusted with 114 carat diamonds. Graff Diamonds claims that because of this “feature”, a person wearing such headphones will hear all sounds in a special tone and with a special sound. Unfortunately, this statement cannot be verified for obvious reasons. During all this time, only a few people had the opportunity to enjoy music, the sound of which was emphasized by noble gems.
The headphones themselves are made in white. The manufacturer's logo is encrusted with red diamonds, all the rest are white. In addition to this, the ear pads in these headphones are made of a special membrane material that does not allow the skin to sweat. It's really helpfulproperty, because not sweating when you have 1 million dollars on your head is very hard.
How to purchase this accessory
If suddenly you have a desire to buy the most expensive headphones, then you will be a little disappointed: for obvious reasons, these headphones are not available in cell phone stores and even in Beat By Dre branches. You can't buy them online either. The only way to get these headphones is to win an auction at the Graff Diamonds Special Event. The starting price is $1 million. But the actual purchase price depends on other bidders. You may have to "throw" a couple of extra tens of thousands of dollars to win the auction. Although, to be honest, there will not be so many participants, if we take into account the fact that since 2012 these headphones have not had a specific owner.
