Mp3, Headphones and Sport - Sony Sport Headphones
The Sony sport headphones that come with your portable mp3 player are not suitable to wear when you are constantly moving, they are uncomfortable to wear, do not stay in your ears and there is a tendency for the cable to get tangled and pull away from the player itself. Take a look at sports headphones that make use of noise cancelling technology, this is when the headphones block out ambient noise from outside. This can prolong your battery life because you don’t have to have the volume cranked up to the max, which can cause hearing damage over time.
I’ve fallen in love with running with my iPod Shuffle (ah – the podcast revolution has finally caught up with me) but the stupid white trendy headphones that Apple supplies kept falling out of my ears. I know I’m in headphone heaven if – after a two hour run – I’ve forgotten they are in my ears. If you are a serious runner or biker and you like to listen to music while you do your thing, you must try these When I made the jump to running with an mp3 player, I quickly noticed two things: - Running with music is fun and motivational. - Stock headphones that come “free” with most mp3 players just don’t get the job done.
As a result, one of the first accessories I purchased were nicer, more comfortable, more stable ear clip headphones. Perhaps I should have first looked at a pair of Sony sport headphones. The design is very flexible, so I didn’t have to worry about accidentally breaking them while porting around, and with only one cord coming out of the back, tangles were not an issue. The only negative was that the Flights would become a little uncomfortable in my ears during long sessions of use (similar to other earbuds I’ve used). Coloured, as the rest of the range, in grey and green, there is also a reflective Sennheiser logo on the back, which looks pretty.
