HydroActive Premium Short-Cord Waterproof Headphones (Wired 3.5 mm Jack) with 11 Earbuds in 4 Styles (Separate Music Player Purchase Required)

I received a pair of the HydroActive headphones as a warranty replacement for my previous Flex headphones that had developed a fault. In my opinion the HydroActive are better. The audio quality is good, they stay in place and the seal on the ear is good (no leaks yet and am on my 3rd pool swim). I hope they last more than 6 months as I really like them. I also just wanted to say that the customer service I received from Underwater Audio was excellent. Both Reed and Melanie were quick to respond to my query about my previous faulty pair and I had my replacement within a week or so. Other companies would do well to take a leaf out of Underwater Audio's customer service book. Happy customer, thanks again.

Arrived on time. Used them for a 2km pool swim this morning. Worked brilliantly. I only had to adjust them once. It only took a couple of lengths to get used to the feel of them. This is my 5th set of waterproof headphones for swimming. I must have mutant ears as nothing will stay in. I could never swim more than a length without losing one or both of the earbuds.

I'm on my second pair of these. The first pair became faulty within a year of purchase so Underwater Audio replaced them with another pair. This pair has lasted about 2 years but have now given up the ghost. I have looked after them and even kept them in a tupperware box, once dried out to prevent any damage to them when in my swim bag. But alas, they have given up. I am loathe to purchase another pair, but need to be able to listen to books on my Delphin. Very frustrating.

Bought this as read reviews and was impressed, thought I would replace my current set which have severed me well but getting a bit temperamental. Arrived quickly which is about the only positive thing I have to say unfortunately. Plugged into my underwater MP3 player, sound quality was beyond diabolical. Very tiny, cannot handle any base and really quiet and muffled, also one of the sides at times seemed quieter than the other. I tried on 2 devices and both sounded awful. I did not even want to try it in the water. I have re ordered a pair of the ones I was using which I have to say are considerably cheaper at around £15. I have already printed the labels off to return this product to amazon. Very very disappointing given the price.

These work the best of all the headphones I have tried for me. I continually have to put loose ones back in my ears whereas these stay. I seem to have difficulty with all the headphone earpieces but I suspect that is my shape of ears! This gives the biggest selection and works the best of all the ones I have tried. Great swimming with music! Also the company are reliable and immediately replaced my phones when I had a problem.

I was delighted with these initially once I established which of the buds best fitted my ears. However after 10 uses since purchase the left ear phone is no longer working which is exceptionally disappointing after such a short period of time and next to new.

I like the sound and very confortable!

The sound quality on there headphones is too bad for their price and build materials are cheap (some of the rubber in the ear buds and plastics have a yellow tint). Would not recommend this to someone else.

I've tried about 10 different headphones for swimming; all of them either leaked or were falling out. I guess my ear canals refused to follow the evolution theory of Darwin and remained primitive. But finally I found something that even worked for me. I've been swimming with these amor about 2 years. These headphones have a very nice snuggle and comfortable fit, they don't leak or fall out after 45 mins swim in endless pool (I haven't tried them in a lap pool). The only peculiar thing is I found that if I wear them in proper orientation (that is left channel to left ear) I couldn't hear anything out of the left bud! However, when I reverse them and wear them "upside down" with right ear channel in the left ear, the sound is perfect and the buds still don't fall out. Short cord doesn't interfere with strokes or get tangled up. These come with a myriad of different shapes and size buds, extension cord and very nicely packaged. Overall I'm extremely satisfied with these - I think the money is well spent.

ETUI TRES LUXUEUX MAIS A L'INTERIEUR UN CASQUE A L'AIR TRES CHEAP (PLASTIQUE BON MARCHÉ).TRES MAUVAIS QUALITÉ DE SON.J'AI DU REVENIR SUR LES ECOUTEURS DE BASE (MEME FABRIQUANT!) QUI ONT ETE FOURNIS AVEC MON IPOD ACQUATIQUE....J'AI PRIS TROP DE TEMPS POUR FAIRE LE RETOUR, ET MAINTENANT C'EST FOUTU

Da anni nuoto quotidianamente, e per aiutarmi nelle lunghe sessioni di allenamento uso dei lettori MP3 impermeabili. Il problema di tutti (e ne ho avuti moltissimi negli anni, Speedo, Nilox, Sony più tanti altri) è sempre stato negli auricolari. Almeno per la conformazione delle mie orecchie, è stato quasi impossibile che trovarne che restassero isolati per più di una ventina di vasche, anche provando tutti gli stratagemmi con i vari gommini. Senza parlare di virate rapide o vasche veloci. Una volta entrata acqua, l'audio praticamente spariva, e non aveva più senso continuare ad usarle. In ogni caso, ogni due o tre mesi al massimo, almeno per me che nuoto sei giorni su sette, il cloro dava problemi e l'audio spariva definitivamente almeno da un canale, e comunque dopo un po' si rompeva il cavo. Con queste cuffie, anche se il costo è elevato, ho finalmente trovato una cosa che funziona. Usando i gommini ad albero di Natale, che non sono come quelli standard di altri modelli, l'isolamento è totale per tutto l'allenamento, anche sulle ripetute veloci con virata, ed in più l'audio è ottimo, con bei bassi, e volume più che adeguato. L'insieme sembra anche molto robusto, con cavo ben dimensionato e protetto nei punti di inserto. Insomma, sono completamente soddisfatto. L'unico piccolo neo è che il gommino è molto lungo e mi tocca il timpano. probabilmente taglierò via l'ultimo pezzo.
