Twelve South Fermata
Wireless headphones are great, they really are. But
one of the hassles of owning a pair of wireless headphones is having to charge
them. Ideally you would want them to be charging whenever you are not using
them but that just means additional cable clutter on your desk. This is where
the Fermata comes in, a headphone stand from accessory maker Twelve South that
is designed specifically for wireless headphones.
While at the outset the Fermata might look like a
standard headphone stand, it includes a charging cable that neatly plugs into
the bottom of your wireless headphones while they placed on the stand. The
cable uses a reversible microUSB connector, so you can just plug in the cable
without looking.
Another neat feature is that the stand has a USB
port so you can also plug in your phone into it and charge your headphones and
your phone at the same time. Apart from that, the Fermata is a solid metal
stand with a 2m charging cable and a contoured leather pad at the top to
protect your headphones.
The Twelve South Fermata is priced at US$ 79.99, which
is a good investment if you have a pair of expensive wireless headphones and
you want a clutter free desk.
