iLuv has launched its latest media player accessory, the iEP505 earphones featuring a sound-isolating design. The earphones provide an in-line volume control, which the company plans to upgrade with support for navigation controls on the latest iPod shuffle. The company claims the drivers are engineered for improved audio reproduction and frequency range.

The iEP505 are now available in black for $50. White, blue, pink and red colors will be released in the second quarter, along with the Shuffle-compatible variant.
