Audio enthusiasts and hipsters alike will be pleased to know that Meze wooden headphones and ear buds are now available on this island nation. These luxurious audio boosters are made with ebony wood rather than the typical plastic, creating a more solid resonance and clearer sound. Though the price tag may put some people off, audio snobs and even casual listeners who like their aural pleasure to last more than two weeks could achieve multiple eargasm with these puppies. The 11 Classics ear phones will set you back ¥12,800, while the headphones range between ¥19,800-29,800.
