Bluetooth Headphones – From Your Phone to Your Stereo
We have now grown very accustomed to seeing people walking around appearing to talk to themselves. Years ago, however, when we saw a person holding a conversation without a cell phone attached to the ear, or an earpiece plugged into a phone, we immediately began dialing numbers to take them away. Now, of course, when we see someone laughing aloud in public we assume there’s a wireless earpiece hooked onto the ear on the other side of his or her head. We grant this great feat to the Bluetooth. This small, wireless device has ushered society into the 21st century, allowing many happy cell phone users the freedom to move about without having to lug their phones with them with every move they make. Bluetooth wanted to extend this freedom to other areas of multimedia, and from that appeared Bluetooth headphones.
What Are Bluetooth Headphones?
Bluetooth headphones are one of the latest crazes in the multimedia world. Much like the phone earpiece, the headphones are wireless, allowing listeners the freedom to move about without having to remain attached to the music source. Even better, the sets can connect to your MP3 player, computer, cell phone, home stereo, DVD player, TV or any other device supported by Bluetooth stereo audio.
Whether you’re looking for circumaural (over the ear) or supraural (sitting on the outside of the ear), this industry leader in digital technology seems to have what its customers are looking for. They are said to have wireless streaming ability from a media sources, such as your computer – and the high digital quality is not compromised. But the major bonus is the convenience they give you. If you are the type of person who loves to listen to music while washing dishes or vacuuming, but don’t want to turn the music up sky high (especially if you have neighbors nearby then they allow you that freedom to where the headset and move up to 60 ft away from your music source without having a small, wired device to carry around with you.
The benefits of these wireless headphones also carry over into your exercise routine. If you are someone who loves to job outdoors or take your iPod or Mp3 player with you to the gym, then these they will give you the benefit of a tangle-free experience. Depending on the exercises you’re doing, you might have to make sharp turns and twists that can unplug your headset from the device you’re using. Also, if you’re jogging and leave them in your pocket, depending on the length of the cord, you can place undue strain on it and eventually short them out so that they don’t play music appropriately. Bluetooth headphones alleviate these problems.
Many people think because the headphones are wireless they might not have the same sound quality as wired sets. While this has been the case in the past, we are now seeing that technology has advanced and without leaving the wire-free experience behind. These headphones have an exceptional sound quality and can be compared to high-fidelity, digital CD quality, so that now it is difficult to tell the difference between these and the wired versions.
Also, the Bluetooth headphones are very good for your cell phone, as they allow you to listen to your favorite songs uninterrupted, but when you get a phone call, they allow you to switch from the music to accept the phone call. When you’re finished with your call, they allow you to switch back and immediately resume the music that is waiting in the same spot on the song you were listening to.
Comparing Bluetooth Headphones
There are different brands of Bluetooth headphones and depending on which brand you choose, you could be spending very different amounts ranging from $50 to $300. Let’s do a little comparison shopping to see what makes a difference in the prices.
GN Jabra BT620s Bluetooth Stereo Headsets
Jabra BT620s fall into the lower price bracket, averaging from $50 to $75. With this headset, you are able to talk on your phone then switch to music when ending a call. It is compatible with many devices, and being one of the first wireless headsets on the market, it is guaranteed to have great sound quality. Nokia HS-39W Bluetooth BH-500 Stereo Earbud Headset
The Nokia headset falls into the $150 range. They work in conjunction with your cell phone to play music and allow you to take incoming calls without losing your place in the song. They can also be used with your stereo, which is great for allowing you to move about the house, which you can do up to 30 ft away from the device. As for battery life, you have up to 8 hours of talk time and 150 hours of standby time, and included, you receive earbud pads and a travel charger – not bad!
Etymotic Research ETY8 In-The-Ear Bluetooth Earphones with iPod Adapter
These earphones fall into the pricey category – usually about $300. As mentioned in the title, they come with an iPod adapter, which makes them great for your wireless musical experience. Also, because they are in-the-ear, they can give you even more freedom than the over-the-head styles – and they come with ear tips in various shapes and sizes to make sure they fit correctly to your ears. Some other benefits are that they have high definition and noise-isolating technology, both excellent for use with your home theater systems where having high sound quality and shutting away outside noises are of paramount importance. These headsets have the option to adjust volume, skip songs, and fast-forward from the headset, and even come in a nice leather case if that means something to you.
While are definite benefits to each of the headsets, the most important factor for many will be the sound quality. So when you price your Bluetooth headphones be sure to test them in stores to gauge not only quality, but all of the other features you’re looking for. If you do this, I believe you will have a great experience with your Bluetooth headphones and all you have to do next is anticipate the next great technological advancement.
