Any recommendations for wireless headphone for the gym? I lift and run so I need something compatible. I don't like earbuds and much prefer headphones. Comfort is always a plus. Thanks.

    Wireless beats. Pricey but definitely quality and long lasting.

    Jaybird x2 are the best for bluetooth.

    Yurbuds are good for running around because it fits AMAZING in your ear.

    SkullCandy Smoking Buds 2 are like 20$ and awesome bass and sound.

    The thing is wired are gong to be by design better sounding because bluetooth compresses the signal and you loose sound quality. That means cheaper wired earbuds will give same if not better sound as some more expensive bluetooth competitors. Therefor you have to decide whats more important sound, mobility, price and go from there.

    Cnet.com has alot of proffesional reviews on audio stuff.

    I got a pair of roverbeats F1 headphones st year off Amazon and love them. They never slipped off during cardio and I also wear them when shoveling snow. They're only $40, so won't break the bank.

    While I prefer the Jaybirds over anything else I own, my favorite on ear headphones for working out are the 66 Audio BTS+ Bluetooth Sports Headphone. They sound decent, stay in place, and are not too expensive. I often wear them when working around the house. I have used them a few times when running and had no issues.
