"Most headphones are made with whats known as a 'flat frequency response'. We've re-written the rule book with PUMP MIX Wireless to create a sound that makes you smile..."
- Adam Blair, Founder, PUMP Audio

Hi Indiegogo, we’re PUMP Audio.
In 2014 we came in to existence thanks to the power of Crowdfunding with "PUMP In-Ear".
They sounded like no other headphones on the planet, and were especially appreciated by people who love Electronic and Dance music, due to their incredible Bass Response.
Since then, we’ve gone from strength to strength, having received hundreds of official 5 star reviews, and thousands of unofficial ones from users in 59 countries around the world.

MIX Wireless is our latest in ear headphone design.
It gives you the revolutionary PUMP Audio sound signature, in Wireless Bluetooth.
Unlike many new headphone innovations that appear on crowdfunding sites, which often focus on a gimmic or new technological idea, PUMP Audio headphones are all about one thing:

At PUMP Audio, we truly believe that sound is by far the most important element in any set of headphones. So much so that it's our official company slogan.
After sound comes comfort, usability and style in that order, with manufacturing quality a given.

The sub-bass reproduction and unique sound signature of MIX Wireless is something that we’ve developed from the ground up over the course of over two years, and it’s something we’re very proud of.
The obvious difference between PUMP Audio headphones and other brands is the quality and depth of the bass and sub-bass reproduction.
There have been some other brands who have tried this approach, including a very famous one you are no doubt familiar with beginning with a "b"...
However, the other big difference between PUMP Audio and those other brands is what we've done with the rest of the frequency range.

We haven't simply sacrificed the rest of the range so that all you hear is heavy bass.
Instead we've painstakingly created a totally unique sound signature that gives you immense bass, but with balance, clarity, and high fidelity Audiophile quality sound through the entire range.

In fact we’re so confident in the immense sound they produce that we’ve decided to offer a 90 day trial to all Indiegogo Backers who order during the launch campaign (see the bottom of this campaign page for full offer and terms).

They sound just like "PUMP V2" -- our much loved wired in-ear headphones -- unless you have extremely sensitive ears, in which case you might notice the even wider frequency response range, which is now 12hz – 28Khz.
PUMP Audio headphones all have a sound signature that's totally unique.
No other headphones on the planet sound quite like them.

We started by creating Amazing Bass™, and then tuned the mids and highs to what we think is perfection.
With many top-end headphones, you have to turn the volume up very high to really get the bass you want, because they give the mid range a lot of priority.
And when you do that, the highs become too harsh (for Electronic music in particular).
We tuned PUMP specifically for lovers of Electronic and Dance music, although they sound pretty incredible with ALL genres according to our Artist and User reviews.

The Bluetooth chip in MIX Wireless is is an all new exclusive chip we developed together with ISSC Technologies.
We couldn't achieve perfect replication of the PUMP sound signature with the off the shelf CSR chipset we started out with, which led us early on in development to switch to developing a custom chip exclusively for MIX Wireless.
Our new chip (which we're calling the "BR1" chip) connects quickly, has extremely reliable connection and crucially, can handle the bass and sub bass reproduction we needed, as well as having perfect reproduction through the rest of the range.
We decided early on in development to go against the recent trend of "true wireless" headphones.
Indeed, back in April 2016 we had communication from Darren F (a DJ), who was a Bragi Dash "true wireless" backer on Kickstarter, and subsequently became an Investor in PUMP Audio.
(This email is from before Darren became an Investor)

"I am returning my Bragi Dash today of which I was part of the kick-starter Group due to their disappointing sound quality! It is the most important feature of any sound producing device with wireless being a close second now". And I feel like you have nailed both I am eagerly awaiting your wireless launch"
"in my opinion they have overstretched sacrificing volume and sound quality for whistles and bells. True quality sound with sufficient volume seems to be lacking throughout the wireless market at present. The others all seem to be blaming a mixture of Bluetooth capabilities and regulatory restrictions for their failings. Your demo model at GSL" (Gadget Show Live, April 2016)
"seemed to have overcome these issues."
- Darren (PUMP User and Investor)
----------------------------------------
Darren accurately identified the issues of reproducing the "PUMP Sound" accurately via Bluetooth, which -- through months of development -- we were able to overcome.
The other main reason we decided to go with Wireless rather than "true wireless" was that we think that current "true wireless" headphones are too easy to lose and in some cases can also pose a choking hazard for small children.
In fact since the launch of Apples "Airpods" there has been something of a backlash on social media. There has even been at least one company spring up who offer to convert Airpods to "Wireless" from "True Wireless":

This trend appears to give validation to our view that Wireless earphones are the way to go, and indeed part of the reason for offering the 90 day trial is to prove this to Indiegogo backers who are tempted by the recent trend of pure wireless.

MIX Wireless comes with 2 sizes of silicone eartips, and 3 sizes of Memory Foam eartips:
![]()
Each set has been specifically designed to work with the internal architecture of MIX Wireless to ensure they sound the same, no matter what size ear canal you have.
It's not just a case of choosing any old eartips, as this can ruin the sound quality!
It's really important to choose the right eartips for your ears, otherwise your PUMPs won't sound quite right and you may start to wonder what all the fuss is about…
![]()
We suggest trying all five earbud sizes to see which ones best fit your ear size. Using the best size for your ear makes a BIG difference!

Answering or hanging up on a call is as simple as pressing the centre button.
![]()
Your music will automatically fade out when you receive a call and if you're not available to talk, just hold the Centre button down for a couple of seconds and your music will be instantly resumed!
To redial your last number, press the Centre button twice;
To cancel a call, press the Centre button and that will cancel the call;
To decline a call, hold the Centre button down for a couple of seconds.
It all becomes second nature after a very short time.

We’ve designed MIX Wireless to be perfect for the gym – no more cables waving around and unlike some so called “true wireless” headphones, they stay in your ears due to the seal they form in your ear when the correct earbud size is used, and the incredibly light weight.

The battery and control module are tiny, weighing at just 3.6g (making a total weight of just 11g!) but will last for 4 hours+ constant use (dependant on volume)between charges.

If you damage or break your PUMPs, fear not… We definitely don’t want to leave you in the lurch just because you had an accident or lent them to someone who’s a bit too heavy handed.
That’s why we offer PUMPreplace.
![]()
Just get in touch with a copy of your receipt and a picture of your damaged PUMPs and we’ll arrange another set for you (minus the packaging, accessories, manuals etc. that you already have) at a heavily subsidised price.
This price may change a little from time to time, but it will always be a fraction of the “new” price, so just ask us what it is currently.
Your 5 Year PUMPreplace Warranty does not effect your standard PUMP 2 Year full product warranty.
* you must register your Warranty on at pump-audio.com to be eligible (it’s free!).

We appreciate that there are some pretty major claims made about the sound quality of MIX Wireless in this Launch campaign.
If you are already a Friend of PUMP then you will know that these claims are no exaggeration.
However, if you're new to the PUMP Family we understand that there may be some scepticism; after all, how different can one set of headphones sound from another?
Well the answer is a LOT (as you will see from our Artist Reviews and User Reviews), and to prove that to you, we're offering all Indiegogo Launch Backers a 100% no quibble 90 Day Trial on MIX Wireless.
It means that you can back MIX Wireless with absolutely no risk.
If you don’t think they are as amazing as we do, just send them back for a complete refund, no questions asked and no hard feelings.
But fair warning… once you hear them, the last thing you are going to want to do is send them back to us.
We’re looking forward to welcoming you as a Friend of PUMP, and thank you in advance for your support from everyone here at PUMP HQ!
