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.

Today, however, there is virtually no one who has not heard of, or used, a set of headphones. They have literally exploded in popularity since the onset of mobile phones, mp3 players, ipods and the like. The most common used wires to connect the headpiece to the equipment and this restricted the movements of the user to within range – in other words, as far as the wire would stretch!

The advent of the wireless headphones set the user free to move about whilst listening to the preferred channel. The introduction of Bluetooth technology has given the user freedom unparalleled in history. The headset “hooks” on to the sound being transmitted from as far as ten meters away.

Since most people carry the transmitter – be it mobile phone with radio or mp3 players – with them distance is not a problem. However, imagine being able to move around your house while listening to your favorite music without blasting the neighbors!

Perhaps the best thing about today’s headsets is the quality of sound. The music is beamed directly to your ears without the distraction of peripheral noise. You truly are in a world of your own whether you are running or lying in your bed!
