Connect Editions
Meters Connect Editions helmets have the same features as the classic OV-1-B-Connect helmets, but are finished in limited editions. The range is renewed every 3 months, with new colours gradually replacing the existing models.
Connect Pro
The Connect Pro range uses the latest Bluetooth technology to deliver a superior wireless connection, transmitting up to 24-bit and high-definition (HD) audio directly to your wireless headphones.
Jamaica Soundsystem
Jamaica Soundsystem is the brainchild of Zak Starkey and his partner Sharna 'Sshh' Liguz, both Jamaican-based musicians and producers. They went on to launch their Grammy Award-winning record label Trojan Jamaica. The two producers reflect the island's rich musical history, rooted in Africa as well as American soul and blues.
Mobile application
Available for iOS and Android, Meters Connect gives you full control over your Meters OV-1-B-CONNECT headset.
Thanks to an RGB LED, you can now control the colour of the VU meter as well as the brightness of the dial when you're in dark spaces.
The application also lets you adjust your headphones using a 5-band parametric equalizer with simple, easy-to-use controls. Specific frequencies have been chosen to give you the best possible range of sounds. Bass, 340 Hz, midrange, 2.6 kHz and treble. A class ab amplifier is used to obtain an optimum signal with minimal distortion and ideal sound quality.
