hi guys, 1st post

Ok so i've looked at plenty of reviews and most seem to rate the freepulses highly. I want them mainly for their wireless connectivity so I can use them on the rowing machine without my zen vision m clunking around in my pocket

.

Just wondered if anyone has any experience with them? They're £49.99 over here with free shipping and I'm considering buying them sometime this week if I can't find anything to convince me otherwise.

Youtube review; YouTube - VideoYug - Logitech FreePulse Wireless Headphones


Unless anyone has any other suggestions for some wireless sport headphones compatible with my 30gb zen vision m:30gb for ~£50?

Cheers guys

Transplant the drivers?

What does that mean?

Cheers

he means remove the drivers from the KSC75 and put them inside the housing of the logitechs. He was indeed joking about it.

Not a bad idea though eheh

 

[Mitch92uK]

So they're a good choice then?

i havent heard them personally...im going to go out on a limb here and say no. I dont think wireless is going to ge good for quality. However, i havent listened to a new wireless headphone in a while.

I think someone should actually try this and report back.

Wireless Koss KSC-75's?

I'd buy it. (if SQ was on par as normal KSC-75's that is

)

 

[Mitch92uK]

What about the Koss HB60 or HB70?

And the Koss KSC75's, really that good for £15?

cheers

Honestly the KSC75 are fantastic for the money. However, i dont know the exchange, but they are normally 14.99-18.99 at radio shack. Thats US currency.

Im almost pretty positive that they will sound MUCH better then the Logitechs.

They're only about £14 here; Amazon.co.uk: Koss KSC75 Headphones: Koss: Electronics & Photo

Tbh i'm just considering buying the KSC's and a universal armband for my Zen for a combined price of ~£18 tops, and pocketing the £32 saved from not buying the logitechs ...

 

[Dominat0r]

thats the route i would go, or maybe get a extension cord so you dont have to have the DAP on you, can put it off to the side.

I wasn't joking. It seriously would be sweet

Lots of reviews here..one person said they sounded worse than the ipod stock earbuds

Bluetooth just doesn't have a lot of bandwidth. You'll essentially be compressing your music again. I've tried to hookup a BT connection from a mobile phone to my desktop speakers just for kicks and it didn't sound particularly good. Changing to the headphone out jack improved things.

On the other hand if you're busy focusing on the rowing machine you might not notice anyway.
