NOVA’S NEW AUDIO EARRINGS ARE MADE WITH REAL PEARLS AND HAVE BUILT-IN SPEAKERS | Tic Tech Toe

The clip-on or stud H1 Audio Earrings from Nova Audio feature two speakers behind both pearls that use directional sound to transmit audio up and into your ears. Nova says the technology adds “a layer of sound” to your environment, allowing you to hear what’s going on around you while still enjoying your audio.

And there’s another deleted scene that would have given Boromir a lot more…
