Getting your player ready...
Unlike runners (who put personalized “Rocky” training-montage soundtracks on their iPods), swimmers tend to exercise in silence.
But water enthusiasts who don’t want to sacrifice their headsets have a new option. H20 Audio has created its fourth-generation waterproof headphones, called the Surge, which retail for $60.
The headsets can withstand a depth of up to 12 feet of water and come with five sets of sound-isolation earplugs to help ensure a more customized, watertight fit. The Surge’s speakers have a new in-ear design that increases the bass of their third-generation counterpart. To help minimize dislodging, the cable was lengthened to 44 inches, so feel free to perfect that heelside back roll.
