Portable wireless headphones are great these days for both public and private situations. In the audience, you obviously want to use wireless headphones because you can't put your songs to the rest of the world. Privately, the headphones are ideal in family situations where you want to watch TV or listen to the stereo, but not disturb anyone else in the house. We have compiled some tips on what to consider when shopping.
What compatibility do you need?
Do you want your portable wireless headphones for your iPod / mp3 player, car DVD player, or home use with your TV or stereo? It makes a difference. Make sure the specific headphones you are looking for work with your existing equipment. For example, some headphones are made exclusively for the iPod, while others are made for other brands of MP3 players and do not work with the iPod. Please read the product information carefully, whether you buy online or in a physical store. Depending on your needs, there are some portable wireless headsets that will be compatible with multiple brands and types of devices, including even your cell phone with Bluetooth technology.
Generally speaking, the higher the cost, the higher the sound quality you will receive. If you're looking to really turn up the volume, make sure the MP3 player's speaker has a built-in amplifier. Power is another consideration: Generally speaking, more power equals more powerful sound. Some speakers of MP3 players today even have bass and treble controls so you can adjust the sound.
What style of wireless headphones do you prefer?
There are significant differences in comfort between behind-the-neck hearing aids, those worn over the ears, and those worn over the head. Popular brands include Bose and Sennheiser for over-the-head versions, while many brands such as Creative, Logitech, Plantronics, and Sony manufacture the behind-the-neck portable wireless headphones.
What are your energy needs?
You are likely to use them primarily on battery power, so make sure you can use rechargeable batteries and check the specifications of the wireless headphones over the estimated life of each charge. Some portable wireless headphones come with a charging base so you don't have to remove and charge your batteries separately.
