Japanese audio company km5 is blending sound and style with its new “Neon Collection.” The brand, which already views audio products as fashion and home decor items, has given its sleek designs a colorful update using bright neon accents and clear materials. By pairing transparent cases with vibrant neon colors, km5 transforms standard CD players and headphones into eye-catching works of art.

The new Cp2 “Clear” edition CD player is generating a lot of excitement. Priced at 25,300 yen, it features a built-in speaker and a unique design. Instead of a solid outer shell, it has a transparent case, showcasing the inner workings and turning the player into a striking piece of modern art.

If you like showing off your CD artwork, the Cp1 player comes in two stylish options: a bright Neon Yellow (priced at 20,900 yen) and a clear finish (22,000 yen). The Neon Yellow version gives any room a modern, futuristic look, and it even creates the illusion that the player is glowing.

The collection includes the Hp1 headphones, which are lightweight and now come in a clear finish with bright yellow earcups, perfectly matching modern streetwear and tech styles. For even more personalization, km5 offers separate felt earcups (around $14) in colors like Turquoise Blue, Carmine, and Lime Yellow, letting you change up the look of your headphones to suit your mood. A matching charging stand and protective cases complete the collection.

You can now find the km5 “Neon Collection” at several stores in Japan, including BEAMS CULTUART Takanawa, BEAMS Men Shibuya, and BEAMS Ginza.
