If you don’t want dangling wires and wires stretched from your music system to wherever you are sitting then you should try out the new wireless, or cordless, headsets.
Bluetooth technology – so named after the King of Denmark in the 10th Century when he united
Denmark and Norway – has made this a very simple choice. All it takes is to place a “dongle”
- a small box with a small jack plug – into your music system. The headphones and dongle are then “paired” electronically and you are set to go! Apart from the usual requirements of headphones – good sound quality, comfort, hands free design etc. – some people just want to look “cool” when it comes to wearing headsets. The Bluetooth technology allows the user to wear headphones without the trailing wires and styles have certainly improved of late. I – Phone have come up with a design which looks a little odd. The behind the neck bar attaches to large, egg-shaped ear pieces and are not for everyone. They look a little theatrical in style and basically are just too big to look “cool”. A pointer to watch out for when purchasing new headphones is to try them on for size. This headsets’ bar stood out from the back of the neck way too far.
Whether you want the smaller, more fashionable, or more portable headphones always make sure you get what is right for you in terms of comfort, style and price. Buy the best you can
afford for longevity.
