Bone conduction beats earbuds for swimming!

Regrettably I tried the earbuds first, and while the sound was great OUT of the water, the sound lasted for only 1-2 laps before water got past the earbud tips (tried all sizes) and sloshed around in my ear canal interrupting the sound. Tried a swimming cap, tried no earbud tips so water could drain out, all to no avail. I'd get done with my workout and walk 10 yards across the pool deck, the heel strike would jostle the water out of my ear canal, the sound would return loud and clear. Frustrating. Broke down and ordered bone conduction headphones, now the sound is constant for my whole workout! They stay permanently clipped on my goggle strap, I just slip on the goggles, turn on the mp3, and start swimming. They come with ear plugs that you must use for bone conduction to work. When your ears are submerged the water does the same as the ear plug, but when your ear comes out of the water you switch to air conduction, but the ear plugs prevent that. I got an extra set of plugs so I have a spare just in case. Unless you know for sure that earbuds will work for you, go bone conduction. The sound is just as good, and as long as your ears are plugged you hear the sound uninterrupted. Total game-changer for swimming enjoyment!

The technology behind the bone conductor headphones is awesome. A little concern about the fragile wiring but otherwise I am very happy, because I know the h2o audio team will honor my warranty. Best, Skip

No more ear infections or water in ears

Swim 1 hour daily. Was having problems with the water in ear canal. Bone conduction and earplugs solved the issue. Quality of sound actually improves under water. Could not be more pleased.

Woohoo!

I am loving the bone conduction. They work fantastic. Tried the bluetooth to my phone and that was amazing as well. Thanks for all your help.
