Why go without music if it's so easy to have it with you at all times? Let me show you the right products for any situation and budget.
Splash
With these waterproof headphones, you're ready for outdoor activity any time. The Urbanears Hellas have detachable headband and ear cushions, which can be tossed in with the wash after your sweaty workout session. If you want to take outdoor training one step further, why not go for a swim with the Sony NW-WS414? These saltwater-proof headphones come with specially designed earbuds for swimming and are headphones and MP3 player in one.
Maybe you're planning an inflatable boat trip? No problem for the JBL Charge 3 or the UE Megaboom. Both speakers are IPX7-certified and withstand more than just a few splashes of water. They're waterproof to a depth of 1 m for up to 30 minutes – who knows, this might come in handy one day.
Terrace / balcony
What's nicer than finding a cosy spot on your terrace or balcony on a sunny weekend, sipping on an ice-cold drink and chilling out to your favourite music? The following products are sure to deliver perfectly balanced sound from several music sources.
On the road
Noise-cancelling headphones are great when you're travelling by train or air plane, as they ensure absolute peace and quiet.
Forget about your surroundings for a while and immerse yourself completely in the music.
Sharing is caring? Our compact Bluetooth speakers are robust and can be taken anywhere. The DAB+ adapter by Pure ensures great entertainment in your car and the high-resolution audio player by FiiO plays truly high-quality sound.
Sport
Audio devices which are suitable as sports companions need to be robust, durable and hard as nails. These products withstand sweat, water and dirt and will follow you through thick and thin.
Garden party
The following products don't only look cool, they're also packed with great functionality. Entertain your friends with the Pocket Operator PO-20 or Lightpad Block and create your own beats. You're the DJ type? The Sony audio system is a party machine: With a built-in multicoloured line light, speaker lights and a flashing strobe, you’ll be able to see and hear the beat. Use the «SongPal» app to blend in DJ effects at the same time.
If you prefer something more subtle, ION's portable suitcase turntable could be for you. In beautiful 1950s style, this turntable features integrated stereo speakers and a built-in rechargeable battery.
