  • WHO HAS THE BEST EAR BUDS?

    WHO HAS THE BEST EAR BUDS?

    [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]I find myself with the need to reach out again and ask if any of you have suggestions for wired earbuds.

    It seems my efforts to go wireless and employ Bluetooth have been met with nothing but frustration and disappointment.

    My conclusion is that the handy little device in my chest that keeps my heart beating, causes too much interference between my phone, when either in a pocket in my pants or jacket, and the ear buds.

    Often times the disruption is so bad, it reminds me of the early days of the ever popular Discman. The days before there was “skip protection”. Made one wish for the woof old days with a trusty cassette!

    I digress…[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”5626″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]I do enjoy the different Jaybird wireless models I have had, when they work, both for sound quality, battery life and comfort. I also fondly remember having a couple pairs of Urbanears that were really awesome as well. I really liked the braiding on the wires with the Urbanears. They didn’t tangle like the rubber coating. Bonus.

    I’m looking for something that will be good for wearing while gaming and while exercising.

    Please share your experiences, thoughts and ideas.

    Thanks.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1600664548223{padding-right: 10px !important;padding-left: 10px !important;}”][vc_column][adning id=”5752″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1609338002280{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-right: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;margin-left: 10px !important;border-top-width: 1px !important;border-right-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 10px !important;background-color: #efefef !important;border-left-color: #293241 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #293241 !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #293241 !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: #293241 !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-radius: 1px !important;}”][ts_comments][/vc_column_text][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=”far fa-arrow-alt-circle-down” color=”grey” size=”lg” align=”center”][vc_column_text]THESE STORIES MAY TURN UP YOUR STYLE

  • I NEED YOUR HELP WITH HEADPHONES

    I NEED YOUR HELP WITH HEADPHONES

    Hi there! I need your help. I need new “ear speakers” of some sort. The dude in this photo needs some serious help IMHO…it looks just way too cold to be out running around…

    Man wearing HEADPHONES stretching in the cold

    But seriously. I have been using some Jaybird X3 ear buds and I have not been happy since day 1. Okay maybe not day 1 maybe like sometime within the first 3 months.

    Connectivity is the worst for these. I think that maybe, if being generous, 30% of the time I have worn these I had zero problems. Otherwise, I am always losing the connection, music or sound breaks up and either Spotify or Pocket Cast will stop playback.

    Another issue is I have never been 100% thrilled with the sound. I know that I did not pay a lot for the Jaybird X3, however, I have some cheap headphones & earbuds in the studio for extra guests that have a richer sound.

    What I want to do with these new “ear speakers” is wear them when I am out running errands or I am exercising. Be it walking and, if I am lucky enough, again when I am running. The biggest thing is I want to be able to hear the beat over the traffic zipping past me.

    I think I prefer earbuds instead of over the ear. Especially in summer; but also for lack up bulk. If I am walking to the pub to meet my buds, I really don’t want to have to drag around my bulky headphones.

    Please…share your ideas and links!
