RunPhones Classic - headphones for a comfortable run

Fans of jogging and the other exercises in the open air knows that with the completion of the warm season one of the most annoying problems of equipment are headphones. They need to shove a warm bandage or cap.

The result is sad. The appearance of protruding ears, you can still survive, if before going out not to look in the mirror. But when the tissue begins to slip from the headphones (and sooner or later it starts), means that the remainder of the training you will spend, constantly adjusting accessories for insulation. Wait for the ears freeze, too unpleasant.

Trifle? Trifle. But as annoying.

Irritation of discomfort when running led to the emergence RunPhones - headphones with flat, flexible speakers, built-in dressing for sports.

We in the editorial was wired RunPhones Classic model with an extremely simple structure: dressing in it - dynamics.

The dressing is made of a multifunctional material. Firstly, it protects against wind and cold. Does protect, despite the fact that we got to review the "old" version.

Secondly, it absorbs moisture, i.e. sweat, inevitable during intense exercise, even in cold weather.

Speakers themselves will work, even if you get wet, and restored after drying. But manufacturers do not recommend running in the rain, to deliberately withdraw headphones down. They are able to withstand short-term exposure to moisture, and not a permanent drench.

Bandage and can be washed, it dries rapidly at room temperature, and the next day ready to workout. To wash the bandage, it is necessary to remove the speakers themselves.

The idea is to make a comfortable headphones for running successful at 100%. For me personally, the level of comfort ranks first BTE attachment - it was the only option, in which nothing is pressed, do not hurt, do not take off and not tortured. Now added to the list of leaders RunPhones. For classes armband fits much better than the headphones with rims: the risk to hurt simulators in the room dropped several times.

Judge for yourself: the bandage is sitting tight, but does not press down. Cable for connection to the device comes from behind, never at a loss in the face and almost not felt.

These headphones do not get confused! Because there is nothing to get confused - one wire.

By the way, the manufacturer has a line of wireless headphones and warmed dressings.

A little history

First, the developer - the company AcousticSheep LLC - invented headphones for sleeping. The idea occurred to Lai Xing Wei (Wei-Shin Lai), the family doctor. Bandage with flexible speakers to sleep, set up a doctor, does not interfere with lying on a bed and listening to music. Then the developers found that the athletes have similar issues with headphones that have a good fit, not to fall down and not interfere with the movements.

By the flat speakers and added padded mesh Headband light fabric made of recycled secondary raw materials.

At the exit was very "healthy" product: easy, safe and eco-friendly, fashionable.

Sound quality

From RunPhones not expect acoustic discoveries and editorial opinions were divided: some thought that the sound is excellent, someone thoroughly lacked the bass and sound clarity.

In general, the sound can be described as stable good. And to add to this is nothing, because the outstanding features in the headphones not.

Obviously, the manufacturers have relied on the ease of use and rely on the people who are important comfort workout, rather than the quality of bass reproduction.

In the market there are headphones that sound better, but for comfort and sound quality has to be paid at the same time. Do not forget that RunPhones Classic are much cheaper clever set. Their costs are fully justified.

Connect to the World

Conceived as headphones for runners, RunPhones miss the sounds of the environment. It is clear why this is necessary: ​​to run in a peaceful park or in the country are units, most have to arrange training on the route through the busy streets. Rapid movement requires an instant reaction, and the approach of a bicycle or car to hear better in advance.

A simple solution

Headband headphones RunPhones Classic - this is a very simple and obvious solution for jogging. As they do not have a headset or a complex application for your smartphone, or the built-in coach.

I've been searching for the reason that you can complain to the gadget, but everything depends on personal preference. Someone looking only wireless options, audiophiles are not enough magic sound, but if it is not important to you - RunPhones Classic fit your needs.

Just put on, turn on the music - and fled. Pure convenience.

Layfhaker would like to thank the store Medgadgets.ru for providing the test device.
