Review on 🎧 FitActive Runs by iLuv - Stereo Sports Earphones (Mic & Remote) - Sweat-Proof, Perfect for Jogging, Running, Hiking, Traveling, All Fitness & Exercise Activities (FITACTRUNSWT) (White) by Renee Cook

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Terrible for cyclists, period.

Day 1 with iLuv (no!) FITACTRUNSWT: Bike to work through a traffic light. Every time I got the bike up to a manageable speed, the wind whistling around the cheap rubber earbuds erased any coherent sound. Every morning I listen to the Wall Street Journal on Audible, usually with a pair of knockoffs in iPhone-style headphones. Sometimes they drop out. Sometimes the wind whistles. I'll give these fittings another try with alternative rubber fittings and then probably go back to iPhone-style knockoffs. In case you're wondering, the setup is a cheaper version of older iPhone earbuds with the addition of rubber fittings. to the kidneys. I find that the rubber fittings dampen the sound (hard to believe they don't when you look at the rig up close) and this sacrifice doesn't "return" with a significant advantage. There is nothing "high quality" in them. Of course, it's good that these tips stick in my ears, but I have no idea what's going on in the world today because I couldn't understand WSJ. Thanks iLuv. Worst Revain Purchase? On the run, if only for the ruined morning audio listen.
