Sports Headphones

Post by D6Nutz »

I seem to have lost my headphones and as the distance is going to start increasing soon I want some new ones.

I quite fancy some of the bluetooth ones so I don't have to have wires running down my back. Has anyone tried any of them ??

The only real considerations are size and weight, they have to be compact and light..

I use the arriva Leo ones. Really light, really good. The only issue is they have a crap range. I have to have the phone in an arm band to have no connection issues. Tried it in my pocket mowing lawns and it kept cutting out.

They come with a new style of rubber buds now that work awesome.

3d printed headphones to exactly fit your ear. Pricey but if you're gonna have them in your ears for long periods...

They look the dogs danglies, but the price is a bit painful and I'm too impatient to wait until next year...
