Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. I’m Fred Fishkin. One of the more interesting categories of headphones these days are the ones that allow you to hear your surroundings….while running, walking or biking. A startup called Oladance…created by a team that includes a group of former Bose engineers….is out with the Wearable Stereo B1. They captured a Red Dot Award for design this year. Instead of putting the earbuds inside your ear…high quality speakers with dynamic drivers sit just over the ear. The results are very comfortable and the sound is impressive. They are also designed to protect hearing….and will give you up to sixteen hours of playtime on a charge. For athletes…they are water and sweatproof too. The price…about a hundred fifty dollars and there is more info at www.oladance.com.
