The most traditional helmet the hi-fi is surely the closed telegraphic helmet, equipped with cushions of soundproofing around the ears, and of a wire generally reaching the 3 meters. Perfect for the living room, where it makes wonder coupled to your home cinema, it also makes it possible the “gamers” to be better insulated, because it offers a very good protection against the external noises. “The true” helmet, in opposition to the auricles and other ear-phones, it is also comfort: both for listening the good maintenance around the head. It can thus seem cumbersome for certain, but the quality of the sound and the natural feeling that the port of such a helmet gets always end up convincing. As one can adjust dimensions in a very precise way, it is rare to see it on sportsmen, skateurs, etc without never slipping nor to fall.
In the same way, more and more of people in the street raise a helmet hi-fi today, considered to be ridiculously cumbersome it has there yet only a few years, not only as a better means of listening to music with a sound of great quality, but like fashion accessory! Thus, the famous brands of audio helmets like Wesc, Coloud, Skullcandy or Urbanears propose from now on designs for all the tastes and all the looks. One can thus decorate his behaviour with the colors of Hello Kitty, his sporting team or groups music preferred, either give oneself a retro pace or groovy. The possibilities as regards audio helmets hi fi are increasingly vast, and one can from now on find models particularly adapted to a use by the women, or even by the children.
The audio helmets are also available in version without wire, thanks to the technology of the bluetooth. They allow a quality of listening similar to that of a telegraphic helmet, but avoids having to be encumbered of a wire sometimes very, very length. One can thus find thanks to these models a mobility even more important, reason moreover not to more confine the use of the audio helmets to the living room. Only disadvantage of this technology: its price. Indeed, equal capacity, an audio helmet bluetooth will be often much more expensive than its counterpart with wire. But as for all recent technologies, that of the bluetooth is being democratized and, from here a few years, one will be able to count on a helmet bluetooth good quality at affordable price.
