Awesome headphones, very few problems September 22, 2008

Wi-Gear's iMuffs are definitely a great pair of wireless headphones. The drivers produce an ideal range in tone, and have surprisingly satisfactory bass support. The headphones connect with the adapter in about 3 to 5 seconds, and will instantly start playing when they connect, so make sure you're wearing the headphones when you turn them on. :) The bluetooth range is actually much farther than the advertised 30 feet; I once tested its range at a bowling alley and I definitely reached a good 50 feet or more with a straight line of sight between the headphones and the adapter before they started losing their connection. The headphones can charge via USB on a computer, or an included wall adapter that has a USB port in it. An ideal situation for constant users like me is to just charge them overnight when the battery gets low.
Connecting to my bluetooth phone was flawless, and I can connect and disconnect from the iMuffs in mere seconds whenever I want. My first call with the headphones, the audio was coming through loud and clear. As for the built-in noise-cancelling mic, my mom couldn't even tell on the other end I was using the headphones instead of just the phone. If I'm listening to music and someone calls my phone, I only have to press the play button on the headphones to pick up and start talking. I haven't had a chance to connect my iMuffs to my computer yet, and use them in VoIP programs like Skype, but I'm looking into a USB bluetooth adapter right now, and I have high hopes for the iMuffs once I get them connected to my PC.
I have to say that the iMuffs are definitely one of the best bluetooth sets I've seen as far as features and price (got 'em new for $120 instead of the MSRP of $180), but they are not without a few minor flaws. Occasionally my connection to my iPod cuts out when I have it in my pocket and the headhpones on my head, and when it resumes the pitch of the song increases by about half a note, possibly from inherently increasing the song speed when it reconnects, but returns to normal after about 5 seconds. Another issue is that when I have the headphones connected to both my iPod and my phone, I can't control the volume level of the music, probably because at the time the volume must be focusing on the phone instead of the iPod. Lastly, the buttons on the right headphone cup seem just a little flimsy, and rubber buttons would have been perfect for these headphones. But as I said, these are just minor issues, and they hardly detract from the value and quality of these great bluetooth headphones.
 DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM! August 22, 2008

This product is atrocious garbage. The headphones did not perform particularly well for the 6 months that they worked. Volume was very low and the ipod attachment kept falling out. Add to this that the sound quality is less than acceptable.
The real topper is that after 6 months the phones would no longer take a charge. When I returned them to the manufacturer they refused to repair the item claiming that they are wet from my head perspiration!! Now I perspire as much as the next guy but please give me a break. If the phones can not stand up to normal sitting in a chair or walking perspiration they are useless. They claim the USB port is moldy. So fix it then! This is what the item is made for and it is still under warranty.
I didn't pursue the matter as much as I might normally because the product stinks anyway.
BUY A LOGITECH PAIR-They work better, sound better and after 3 years they are still dry!!
 What ever you do, don't sweat! August 8, 2008

I've used these headphones quite a bit because I love the wireless functionality. They sound great. BUT, even though they say you can use them for sports, sweat will cause the whole things to corrode. The charging USB port is located on the bottom, which is where sweat collects. I've returned them several times and had them replaced, but now the company seems to be getting crabby about such returns and won't replace them because they don't cover "moisture damage".
It seems to me that the main use for bluetooth headphones is active pursuits, such as biking, gym, running, etc. where you want to put the iPod in a protected place (bag, camelbak, etc.) and be able to control the ipod. So, for a pair of bluetooth headphones to be so completely unprotected from sweat is pure folly
Stay away.
Stay away from this product and company August 2, 2008

I purchased this product about a year ago. It never worked well. Almost every time I used it, I needed to jiggle with the connection by either removing and replacing the bluetooth adapter or turning off and on to keep the connection and hear anything out of the connection. After a few minutes it was workable with adequate sound quality. I continued to use it because of the convenience of wireless operation and the fact I had paid so much for it. After about 10.5 months, they stopped working altogether. I called the company and they had me return them for evaluation. They then said they would not honor the warranty because of water damage. This if far to much to pay for a mediocre product and a company that won't stand behind them.
