PARK CITY, Utah — June 15, 2020— Jaybird, the leader in sport headphones for outdoor and fitness enthusiasts, announced that it is the official headphone partner of Equinox Media’s recently launched SoulCycle at-home bike.

As their first collaboration, Jaybird will be providing high quality, immersive and personalized audio for the new SoulCycle at-home bike with special edition Bluetooth® Jaybird VISTATMTotally Wireless Sport Headphones, engineered for sport and fitness.
“Rich, immersive sound is foundational to the Variis experience, and we’re delighted to partner with Equinox Media as the official headphone provider for the SoulCycle at-home bike,” said Jamie Parker, CEO of Jaybird. “Bringing high quality audio to athletes is Jaybird’s core tenet, and offering VISTA as part of the SoulCycle at-home bike and Variis experience is a natural fit for their engaged and growing community.”
“With the SoulCycle at-home bike, we set out to recreate the brand’s signature studio experience in an at-home setting—high-energy workouts, inspiring and motivating instructors, and music-driven choreography,” said Jason LaRose, CEO of Equinox Media. “After testing many brands, we found that the VISTA earbuds from Jaybird could both stand up to the intensity of our workouts and immerse our riders in the content experience.”
Equinox Media chose VISTA for the earbuds’ totally wireless construction, customizable sound, secure and comfortable SportFit and their ability to hold up to intense workouts. This is made possible through IPX7 waterproof, sweatproof and military standard durability. With 16 hours of total battery life, including six hours in the buds themselves, VISTA delivers more than enough audio for even the longest riding session. The Jaybird app allows listeners to personalize their sound profiles to create even more immersive audio experiences.
