Bluetooth headphones for iPod reviewed

Logitech Wireless Headphones


Playlist Mag has got a roundup review of three Bluetooth headphone systems for the iPod: Logitech's cryptically-named Wireless Headphones for iPod ($150), Ten Technology's naviPlay ($200), and the MacAlly BlueWave ($170). They break it down thusly: if you gotta have those sweet, sweet, audiophile sounds, you gotta go with the naviPlay, which lets you use your own headphones. The drawback is that you're still basically wired, although not to your iPod but to a somewhat smaller, lighter Bluetooth receiver — one could argue that this defeats the whole purpose of using a wireless solution but hey, YMMV. Otherwise, for a truly wireless experience you'll sorta hafta compromise on the audio quality to some extent. Between the two other options, the Logitech sports more features (like on-headset controls) but is potentially on the uncomfortable side, whereas the BlueWave is simpler but more comfortable, as well as providing a bit of noise isolation.
