Best earphones for the gym?
 
I’m looking for a new set since breaking my current set at the gym.

What r guys using and find that sound good and stand up to sweat/use at the gym?

Outdoor Tech for earbuds
Platronics for over the ear

Both bluetooth and they get zero static in the gym (mteal beam construction) etc

Platronics at London Drugs $225
Outdoor Tech $99

You can buy cheaper but the sound quality and excellent reception made these my best buys yet

And ive had cheaper ones

And i regretted them

Im at Terwillegar Rec Centre and there is tons of interference there with cheap bluetooths. I had no choice but im glad i did. They get me about 4-5 hours of full volume use. 3-4 hours to charge.

I did put two wraps of black bandage on the Outdoor Techz because i found on the bench, they came off my neck. Non issue now

Maybe “1899b” will chime in

Rumour has it he hits the gym occasionally :)

If he listens to music there, he would be a good bet for great information

I won a raffle at my kids school. Beats by dre wireless bluetooth head phones. Not much of a gym guy but they sure work well when im out with the snow blower. They are loud with a crisp clear sound, and comfortable on the melon. Not sure what they retail for? $2-300 maybe. But they sure sound good.

Have a pair of wireless blue tooth by Skullcandy , they are cheaper and work excellent. I downloaded Spotify on my phone you can get all kinds of tunes.

Which model from Beats are you recommending

I have skull candy headphones and for the price they sound really nice and also stay in your nicely while at the gym. For bang for your buck they would work great

I'm using the black web Bluetooth with the neck cradle at the gym works mint says 10 hours battery life I've gone up to 14 hours without charging

If you want bluetooth try the Powerbeats by beats by dre. I still got a headphone jack and prefer it so i just the bose soundsports, sweat resistant, one of the better bud systems to keep them in your ear and as rugged as bud you'll find.

I like the looks of those!!

Thanks guys...any issue with the skull candy earphones? Reviews aren’t the greatest saying they seem to crap out after a year or sometimes sooner

I bought a cheapie pair of over-the-ear bluetooth headphones and LOVE them. I think they were $40 at Target (when Target was around). I've never owned expensive headphones so maybe the quality isn't the best, but I can't tell. All I can say is I'll never go back to wired headphones. Bluetooth + Spotify is the only way to go :sHa_shakeshout:

I have the BOSE soundsport bluetooth ones and I like them, sit well and sound great. Easy to pair up.
