    Cast your mind back to 2014. Now imagine a pair of wireless headphones from that time. Most likely, you thought of an "over the head" pair of cans, like the SMS Sync, or a pair of tethered earbuds like Powerbeats. These days, the definition of "wireless" is being taken to its logical conclusion: buds not joined to each other in any way. The concept first came to many people's attention via Bragi Dash or Earin. The idea is catching on, though, with more headsets -- including known brands -- getting in on the action. Is this the future of wireless earbuds? Newcomer Erato, with its Apollo 7 set, seems to think so, and -- like Bragi and Earin -- it's hoping you'll be excited enough to fund it on Kickstarter. I got to try an early set for myself, and see if truly wireless really is the way to go.
