the Intel Core i5 4670k unlocked processor add an Intel 520 series SSD to your Haswell system for unbelievable overall performance this is a bit of an interesting unboxing these are the MZ 11 Classics designed by Antonio mes and what they are are they are wooden earbuds which sounds like sort of a a mixture of sort of super high technology and like you know carving things out of wood but there is a practical reason for using wood as a material to make audio products so the objective here was to deliver a very warm natural sound with earbuds that have a style that really can't go out of style so Inside the Box you find not a whole lot other than a carrying case which is great because personally I actually am guilty of doing this I carry my headphones in my pocket with no carrying case at all

the microphone is actually not bad at all the cord itself is braided so you shouldn't have to worry too much about it being damaged by cats or other Critters that might want to well damage it and then up at the top we've got a bit of a unique shape to the Jack so rather than going with a straight Jack or or with a right angle Jack it looks like M has hedged their bets a little bit and gone with a
