“Why so much cheaper?”
Adam Blair • June 09, 2017 • 1 Comment
Hi All, A common question we’ve been getting quite frequently since the launch of DECKS yesterday has been: Why are DECKS so much cheaper than the old PUMP Pure that they replace? Surely if they are are £50 cheaper (than the original PURE price) then we must be cutting corners somewhere, right? Well… No. Since our decision to […]

Hi All OK, this is a slightly controversial blog post here at PUMP with some of the Team for it and some against, but please let me know what you think in the poll at the bottom… We had a review come in around 3 weeks ago that’s been bugging the heck out of me […]

Dear All, We had a flying start to the MIX & BOOM Kickstarter campaign today, reaching 50% of the minimum target in just two hours! This was a really low key launch for us, with no real promotion behind it other than three “pre-launch” emails sent to existing Friends of PUMP. You may wonder why we didn’t […]

Hi All, I’m just writing to let you know that my personal favourite ever PUMP Audio product — PUMP Zeus — is to be discontinued :-( Why?

If you’re in the UK, you may have seen Snugs on Dragons’ Den on BBC2 last week. In fact if you looked very closely you would have seen a set of PUMP V2s on the table behind the founder, Paul :-) Snugs make custom moulded ear tips and PUMP are one of the select few […]

Dear Friends, 2016 was an incredible year for PUMP Audio… It started with us doing our first ever equity raise with help from our friends at Seedrs. It meant that the people who believe in us the most – PUMP users – had the opportunity to invest in the business and become shareholders. Frustratingly we couldn’t […]

We were exhibiting at the Ideal Home Show Christmas in London (England) last week. It’s become sort of an annual tradition for PUMP, with this being our third time attending the show. The show gives us the chance to let a wide cross section of people try PUMP out. By sheer co-incidence, one of the […]

Hi All, I received a set of headphones out of the blue on Saturday. They’re a Bluetooth over ear model that would technically be a rival to PUMP Zeus in terms of size and features. I actually saw them a couple of years back at a trade show in Germany when they were in the […]

Hi All, We’ve had a lot of emails in from our Friends over the last day or two about the new iPhone 7 not having a 3.5mm headphone socket. A lot of people have asked what our reaction is. Well… We’ve been expecting Apple to remove the 3.5mm socket from their latest phones for quite a while now. […]
