Zaphod Beeblebrox Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 The brief: Mrs Beeblebrox needs some cheap 'n cheerful, Bluetooth headphones. They should be: * Light * Posses a reasonable amount of sound isolation (she uses them on her morning and evening journey on the train). * Be inexpensive. I spotted some JBLs at JB HiFi: https://www.jbhifi.com.au/jbl/jbl-t450bt-wireless-on-ear-headphones-black/325712/ They would seem to tick all the boxes. Thoughts would be most appreciated, along with superior alternatives. I am willing to pay a little more, if superior sound isolation can be achieved.

davewantsmoore Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 These are "on-ear". What about in-ear, or over-ear. Either of these can potentially achieve greater isolation (and arguably comfort, and style) ..... but all of this comes very much down to personal preference.

She has in-ear ones and these (cheapies) don't provide much isolation. I realise that over-ear probably won't be a lot better and that over-ear might to too large.

davewantsmoore Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 In ear can provide heaps of isolation.... Just need to know if they're acceptable (some people despise them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
