Run faster and further, or work out harder. The Sennheiser/adidas MX 680i Sports headset lets you achieve both. Its high-output drivers deliver a powerful and energizing stereo sound, motivating you while you run that extra mile or lift the newly-added pounds on your curlbar. Also, the high-performance integrated remote and microphone ensure easy management of both tracks and calls! This headset has been designed and tested for heavy movement - strain relief parts are made of highly-flexible, shock-absorbing material while the cable is Dupont Kevlar reinforced, offering unmatched strength and durability. Even under the toughest of conditions, e.g. -10 degree celsius, it has been found to function well and maintain its flexibility.
The MX 680i Sports headset also features a unique moisture protection system - it protects the sound system from sweat and water, no matter how heavy you work out (and sweat) or how heavy the rain may be. Optimised for miCoach, MP3, CD players and AV systems installed in gyms. The remote and microphone are supported by iPod touch (2nd and 3rd generation), iPod classic, iPod nano (4th and 5th generation), iPod shuffle (3rd generation), iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad and Macbook, Macbook Pro and Mac Pro (2009 and later). Voice Control is supported by the latest iPod touch, iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS.

 Disappointed Sennheiser Loyalist

| | See all muddatrucker's reviews (1)

I've owned several pairs of Sennheiser sports headphones, I've recommended them to anyone who will listen - each time I've bought a new pair I've paid a little more for a more premium product (15, 20 and then around 35 for these).

Unfortunately these weren't only the most expensive pair I bought but also the worst, the others filled your ears perfectly and had brilliant sound quality (by blocking out outside noise) and great fit - these are not great.

You get several attachments but I can't find a combination that fits, unlike the others these aren't trying 'in ear' they sit on your ear and the 'fin' attachments are supposed to keep them there - this doesn't work so well and I'm certain the person sat next to you can hear every word the same volume as you can.

As I'd destroyed the packaging I wrote to Sennheiser and told them I was unhappy with them and as a loyal customer would appreciate the opportunity to return them...they never responded and as such I am now hesitant about buying them again.

I think the pairing with Adidas has done more harm than good, they now seem to be more about looks than practicality which is a shame, they had a winning formula before!
