Philips today introduced its new Philips SHB9000 headband which allows music lovers to listen to their favorite tunes while never missing a call, taking advantage of high-end features in new mobile handsets to give pitch-perfect sound quality and complete freedom to move.

The stylish SHB9000 includes Philips Fullsound which uses latest digital technologies to reveal the finest MP3 or CD audio, dynamically enhancing treble, stereo effects and bass. Designed for comfort with a soft leatherette cushion and adjustable headband, the SHB9000 incorporates Philips SwitchStream allowing listeners to automatically move between music and incoming calls without missing a beat. The wireless headset also delivers enhanced call quality through a digital signal processor that filters out background noise and echo, automatically adjusts volume in response to outside noise and offers a subtle side-tone into the headphone speaker so users can accurately hear their voice for best conversations at natural volume.

Optimized for leading-edge music phone mobile handsets and designed to connect, wirelessly or via the provided cord, with existing portable music and video players, the SHB9000 will be available this spring and will have a suggested retail price of $99 and $129 respectively.
