Dylan Marathon2 Sport Bluetooth Headphones
I own several over-the-ear bluetooth headphones. Most of them are pretty different in terms of the design from these Dylan headphones. These seem designed for a much more active use, and they are a pretty good headphones set to take with you for the on-the-go situations. They are also designed to be waterproof, which is a very important feature to have in exercise headphones.
First of all, the sound quality of these headphones is really good. It’s at least as good as most other sports bluetooth stereo headsets that I have tried. It produces rich sound that most people will find very enjoyable. I’ve had a few of my friends use them as well and they all enjoyed the sound quality.
The headphones fit very snugly and securely on my head. As mentioned earlier, these are great headphones to use while you are walking around, running, lifting weights, or are otherwise away from sedentary situations. I have used them in the gym a few times, and so far they have performed really well. The true test of any sports headphones is how well will they handle sweat in the long run. In my experience there are no headphones that will last more than a year of moderate to intense sports activity. This is why these days I mostly buy inexpensive headsets and replace them as needed.
The headphones can be used for telephony as well, but I have not used them for such a purpose. In general I avoid using Bluetooth headsets for making phone calls as the sound quality leaves a lot to be desifred.
I like the build of these headphones, and they seem to be fairly durable. They are also pretty stylish and elegant, and overall very fun headphones to have and use.

The sound quality is exnlceelt I thought too. The cord situation/positioning is a little funky though. That little plastic cord manager gets in the way if you try to use it.
