Multi-platinum-selling and Grammy Award-winning thrash metal rockers Megadeth proudly announce a groundbreaking collaboration with Finland’s premier headphone manufacturer, Valco Oy, with the release of limited-edition Megadeth VMK25 Headphones. They are available in Valco’s online store starting, August 1st, and shipping globally. Fans and audiophiles should not miss the chance to own this unique piece of heavy metal history.

Designed by Lauri Lumme and fine-tuned by audio expert Jasse Kesti, the Megadeth VMK25 Headphones deliver the raw energy and meticulous detail synonymous with the band’s iconic music. It transforms every listening session into a front-row concert experience by blending Valco’s cutting-edge technology with Megadeth’s signature sound.

This standout feature and unique touch adds a layer of personalization for fans, making the listening experience even more special.

Mustaine comments:

“Partnering with Valco has allowed us to create something truly unique for our fans. These headphones capture the essence of our music with unparalleled clarity and power. We are excited to share this with our global audience.”

The collaboration began when Megadeth’s Finnish guitarist, Teemu Mäntysaari, introduced the band to Valco headphones. Impressed by their superior quality and sound, the band saw an opportunity to merge their music legacy with Valco’s innovative audio technology. The Official Megadeth Headphones are equipped with advanced Active Noise Cancelling technology, enabling users to fully immerse themselves in the rich, intricate sounds that define Megadeth’s music. Designed for both comfort and durability, these headphones are perfect for long listening sessions, whether at home or on the go.
