Title: good bluetooth earpods
Post by: rocket surgeon on May 17, 2016, 05:47:20 AM
  i've been trying out a few.  many times trying to go the easier, cheaper route, but never quite finding the one with a "wow" factor.  my present one, a taotronics isn't bad, not too expensive, good sound, good bluetooth connect, but it misses on the noise cancelling aspect.  previously, i had a good noise canceller(don't remember the brand) but terrible bluetooth

    i'm looking for something that will push the zeppelins, the floyds, the stones and aerosmiths as needed, yet appreciating the jack johnsons, supertramps, lady A's and elton johns. no babs streisand or barry manilow please ;D.  good solid bass and toe tapping, sing right out loud , jamming over the roar of my john deere

   what have any of you found?  thanks

thanks!  what's that little box in the pic?  the other thing i look for is that they don't slip or fall out of your ears.  it's hard to find a good set that has those ear clips, yet i'm afraid to spend too much on these until i know it's exactly what i like.  the taotronics were like $40 and perfect except they had a weak noise cancelling quality

The box is basically a carrying case. You get the headphones, the charger plus 6 different eartip attachments.

Once you find the appropriate eartip, they absolutely stay in place.

These don't have noise cancelling, per se. But they do such a good job with fit that it removes 90% of outside noise.

Don't recommend JBL. Had bluetooth headphones that lasted like 4-5 months and simply stopped charging.

oh yeah, my taotronics has one of those too.  the amazon pic made it look like it was attached to the cords or something.  everything's good about the taotronics except the noise cancelling which is only reall noticeable when i'm on my tractor cutting the lawn.  i love the fit as it wraps around the back of your head and stays on your ears via the snug fit from the heavier, shorter cord.  great price too

thanks, for the info

jbl is a good name if it's the same company that makes the speakers-maybe earbuds ain't their thang.  i always try to pay attention to the reviews/ratings also

I have powerbeats2 wireless.  They were a gift, and I'd never pay retail ($200) for them.  Mine crapped out after six months... fortunately they were covered under warranty, but a lot of horror stories on the web on the product.

I use backbeat fit.  Great bluetooth, great sound, very comfortable, but horrible noise cancellation.
